The course structure is quite daunting as the curriculum focuses on all the subjects required to make a student competitive for the corporate world. Apart from the mainstream subjects of Finance, Marketing, Operations there is a focus on Human Resources,Corporate Law, Business Ethics, Taxation as well. Each semester builds on the previous semester. There are assignments, projects given by the professors.

JBIMS does have a shared hostel facility along with Mumbai University students. The hostel intake is 30 from MMS and is close to Churchgate station, a 5-minute walk to the college. The hostel is allocated on basis of merit to students who are from outside Mumbai. As many students happen to be from the city itself, they live in their homes. Other students live in rented apartments or PGs. The rentals can vary from 5k/month to 12k/month depending on the area of residence and specific requirements.

Visiting faculty are/have been the presidents of corporations and have an in-depth knowledge of the practical application of learnt concepts.
