In July 2024, ISBF moved to its expansive one-acre campus in Jasola, South Delhi, designed to foster both academic and personal growth.
The Indian School of Business and Finance (ISBF), a leader in global academic excellence, has launched a BSc Psychology (Hons) program in collaboration with King’s College London, a globally recognized institution ranked third in the UK for psychology education by the Times Higher Education (THE) World University Rankings.
This program addresses the increasing demand for skilled mental health professionals in India. With mental health awareness on the rise but resources remaining scarce, this program aims to equip students with the skills needed to address India’s mental health challenges. Enhancing this initiative, ISBF will introduce a psychology laboratory, allowing students to conduct simulations and experiments, deepening their understanding of psychological concepts and research techniques
“The BSc Psychology (Hons) program, along with the Psychology lab, reflects ISBF’s commitment to empowering students with a globally aligned education that combines theoretical depth with practical innovation,” said Mrs Arushi Bakshi, Director of ISBF. “Our collaboration with King’s College London ensures students have access to world-class academic resources and opportunities.”

ISBF’s commitment to quality education has been recognized with accolades such as the National Education Award for B-School Leadership (2017) and the Best Institute for Providing Global Exposure Award from ASSOCHAM India (2018).
