What: S P Jain's Global MBA programmes now available in Singapore, Dubai and Sydney/Toronto.

Why is the programme taught in three cities?

This programme is designed to transform bright and successful executives to become Global Business Leaders. Conducting the programme in three world capitals Dubai, Singapore and Sydney/Toronto enables participants to learn firsthand about the unique business environment and cultural issues in each city. Guest lectures by local top management contextualize concepts to global practice. Doing a field project in each city adds an interesting practical dimension to the programme. Exploring the world beyond one's home country not only broadens one's horizons but helps one build the global business acumen that today's challenging marketplace demands.

What else is global?

The global MBA programme has a world-class team of professors from across the world to teach courses in a global context. The peer group consists of a diverse and eclectic student body hailing from several countries. There is also a big component on self-development training, as we believe that it is very crucial for today's global managers to have the requisite skill-set besides theoretical knowledge.

Why is it a one-year programme?

The programme is designed for working executives who prefer to take as little time off as possible so that they can get back to work sooner. The curriculum however, is equal to a typical two-year programme, as it is designed in a tight format with few holidays. The executives applying for the Global MBA are intelligent, self-motivated and ambitious and prepared to work twice as hard in order to save one year.

Why is it necessary to have work experience to join the programme?

 The programme is designed for a mature group of participants enabling rich peer group learning through classroom discussions and group work. Very participant will have a minimum of two years work experience and the average will be over four years. It is also an international norm to do an MBA only after acquiring practical knowledge after few years of working.
