CEIBS offers an accelerated "One-Year Programme" for students seeking a fast-track MBA journey. This option mirrors the intensity and rigour of the standard 16-month programme but is condensed into a 12-month period. Participants complete the same core courses alongside their peers and take additional electives earlier to fulfil graduation requirements within one year.

Due to its intensive nature, this programme is more suited to those with clear post-graduation plans, as it offers limited time for career development and extracurricular activities available in the standard programme. 

Ideal Candidates & Application Process: 

The One-Year Programme is tailored for: 

  • Company-sponsored students 

  • Entrepreneurs 

  • Next-generation family business members 

  • Students with confirmed job opportunities post-graduation  

Interested students are encouraged to apply for appraisal following the commencement of the MBA programme. This accelerated path is designed for those ready to embrace a rigorous academic schedule and quickly transition back into their professional careers or business ventures.
