Indian School of Business and Finance

ISBF was founded with the vision of delivering world-class education in India, and offers undergraduate (honours) degree programmes and graduate diploma programmes in Economics, Finance, Management and Data Science with academic direction from The London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE). This means that LSE academicians design the curriculum, formulate the syllabi, develop the study material, visit frequently for student lectures and faculty training, and set and assess the final examinations for all the programmes offered at ISBF. ISBF students are thus held to LSE's lofty standards, and have excelled even against this benchmark, making ISBF one of the LSE's select few "featured" Teaching Institutions in the world. ISBF is an "Affiliate Centre" of the University of London (UoL), which is the highest recognition accorded to UoL's teaching institutions, and thus testifies to the high academic and infrastructure standards maintained by ISBF. All ISBF students are students of UoL, and receive a UoL degree upon graduating. This equips them with a global education relevant to local needs, and skills them to compete with the best talent in the world.

This is the space where you will not just listen to your professors, but also debate, discuss and develop a worldview that is all your own.
Library
We have a spacious library with lots of natural light and a great view of the city rushing past below. It is well stocked with all the subject guides and reference material that you might need. We also have academic journals and periodicals to help you keep up with current developments. Students can also access the University of London’s online library to search for journal articles and other relevant reading material. Apart from the ideal place to do research, the library is also the quiet place you go to when you really need to focus.

Student Lounge
This is the place to chill out in between lectures. We have the “Usual Place” and the “Casual Place”, with bright and cheerful walls, cosy seating, and huge glass panes looking out over the city.
