About ISBF
ISBF was founded in 2006 with the vision of delivering world‐class education in India. Through its partnerships with global giants like University of London, The London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE) and Kingston University, and its expert and highly committed group of faculty members, ISBF ensures that students receive a rigorous, application-oriented and global education which is relevant to local needs.
On the programmes offered with LSE and University of London, there is complete parity of both curriculum and assessment standards between students of ISBF and LSE in London, and all graduates receive the globally renowned University of London degree. As these programmes are in the areas of Economics, Business & Management and Accounting & Finance, for which LSE is ranked 5th, 10th and 4th in the world respectively (QS 2020), this means that Indian students can not only access a global top 10 undergraduate education, but they can also do so at about one-fourth the cost of obtaining the same education in London.
Starting from the academic session 2020-2021, ISBF has also partnered with Kingston Business School, Kingston University, London, to offer their BSc (Hons) Business Management programme. Students of this programme complete their first two years at ISBF, studying the KU curriculum, and then necessarily move to Kingston University for third year, thus graduating in London at less than half the cost (relative to pursuing all 3 years in London). They are eligible to receive the 2-year post study work visa, as well as other work and visa related benefits available to international students, which makes it much easier for them to launch a career in London. The programme also offers an optional year-long internship anywhere in the world.
