August 26, 2014 12:49 am | Updated 10:47 am IST - BANGALORE:

If the grey stone buildings spread across acres of lush greenery at the Indian Institute of Management, Bangalore (IIMB) always seemed inviting to you, here is some good news.

The gates will be open to even those who do not have the passport for entry – an impressive score in the Common Admission Test (CAT). On October 5, the institute will provide an opportunity to experience ‘One Day @IIMB’, complete with all the exciting experiences that make up a typical day in a student's life.

The candidates will be selected through an online bidding process. Applicants can present bids till September 15. A release from IIMB said all proceeds will be donated to charities. Last year, 70 bidders participated in the event.

This is the flagship event of the ‘Joy of Giving Week’ celebrations at IIMB that is being organised from October 2-8 by Vikasana, the social service initiative of the institute. There will be a series of events throughout the week, which will simultaneously raise funds for social initiatives.

Activities range from classroom sessions and case studies with some of the best professors in the country to a ‘Treasure hunt’. The other events include Twaran (run for a cause), Raag (a music concert) and lunch for staff.
