These experiences allowed me to apply what I learned in the classroom to r eal-world situations and develop a broader perspective on business and society. Thanks to my education at LIBA, I was well-equipped to succeed in my career and make a positive impact on my community. I highly recommend LIBA to anyone seeking a world-class education in business."

Overall, my time at LIBA was invaluable, and I credit the institution with preparing me for a successful career. I would highly recommend LIBA to anyone seeking a rigorous and well-rounded education in business."
-Sahana Sekar

Elizabeth JamesAs a placement committee member, I had always known the dedication this committee had towards the responsibility of placing the entire batch strength of LIBA, with equal importance given to both Summer Internship as well as Final Placements. However, for me personally LIBA placement cell is what I will be forever indebted to. After a break of 2 years, I never imagined I could re-start my career with a prestigious multinational company like Dell Technologies. Working with the Placement cell was definitely instrumental in cracking those 4 round interviews because of the discipline, punctuality and confidence trait it built up. Post 1 year of a Sales stint with Dell, when I approached LIBA with my desire to explore my career in the Finance field, LIBA was once again generous and the placement team coordinated to get another good opportunity in a Finance role. It is very rare to find a B-school who would invest time in an Alumnus whom they have already placed. For this, I am grateful and I am proud of being a LIBA alumni.
