ISB wins T-20 in style

Hey

This is a GREAT moment in the history of Indian education. My school - the INDIAN SCHOOL OF BUSINESS - ISB, HYDERABAD has been ranked Top 20 in the Global MBA rankings 2008 by Financial Times. Just proves what a combination of Faculty, Students and Administration this place has.... The youngest school to leapfrog into the Top 20 of the World.

Am personally thrilled to see that ISB has been ranked higher than Darden, McDonough and Smith!!! It is ISB's T-20 victory. And we, the students are proud of this school, its faculty and the educational environment and impact that has been created. We will celebrate this T20 victory with dignity, humility and sensitivity.

This is a historical and proud moment for ISB in particular and Indian education as a whole. CELEBRATIONS Galore.




Photos show the official announcement by Deputy Dean Ajit & the celebrating students!!
