The faculty pool at ICFAI Business School (IBS), Mumbai is a core pillar of its academic delivery, blending extensive corporate experience with strong research credentials.
Leadership: The institute is headed by Dr. Pritee Sanjeev Saxena (Director), an experienced academician and corporate consultant with decades of background in marketing management and consumer behavior.
Academic Leadership: Key department chairs and deans—such as Prof. Rajini Venkatadri (Management/Soft Skills), Dr. Davinder Kaur Suri (Economics), Prof. Priyanka Mathur Dhingra (Marketing), and Prof. Madhu Iyengar (Corporate Relations/Finance)—bring decades of collective teaching and industry exposure.
Qualifications: A significant majority of the full-time faculty members hold PhDs or dual post-graduate degrees from premier national institutions (including IIMs, IITs, NMIMS, and other leading B-schools).
Case-Study Focus: Aligned with the broader IBS philosophy, the faculty heavily utilizes the case study method (curated extensively through the IBS Center for Management Research) to replicate real-world business hurdles rather than relying purely on theoretical lectures.
Industry Blending: Faculty members regularly engage in corporate consultancy, executive training, and sponsored research projects. This allows them to bring current market trends directly into the classroom.
Mentorship & Soft Skills: Aside from core specializations like Finance, Marketing, Human Resources, Operations, and IT/Analytics, dedicated faculty members oversee personal development, corporate readiness, and mock interview grooming.
