Nitish Jain, President of S P Jain Global “The Forbes ranking is based on one parameter: salary gain in five years post MBA. Two years ago, we were ranked #16. The fact that we moved higher speaks volumes about the quality and relevance of our Global MBA program”. It is mandatory for students of S P Jain Global to study in three countries: Singapore, Australia (Sydney) and the UAE (Dubai). This tri-country model has remained a true differential for the School, helping its students find highly rewarding careers, points out Jain. “Students get to understand global practices as well as important regional nuances. They get a practical, hands-on experience through projects in each of these three international cities and become well-versed in global business. And, through discussions, both inside and outside the classroom, with peers and faculty from all over the world, they develop the skills needed to function in global teams.”
Today, technology is driving disruption – across industries, functions and business models. “We have been quick enough to change our curriculum to match the pace and requirements of the corporate world. We have introduced 15 innovation labs. In the classroom, our focus is on building real-world skills like critical thinking, creativity, problem solving and decision-making. We are also investing heavily on building the entrepreneurs of tomorrow. We believe in constantly updating, upgrading and innovating to staying relevant,” he sums up.
Going a step ahead of its peers, S P Jain Global also focuses on preparing its students for the job scenario.
“We look at the aspirational value with which each student joins the MBA program. Their dream remains personal. We try and customize the learning and training for the student so that they successfully achieve their goals and their dreams are fructified with the completion of program. We have small cohorts and restrict the number of students so that we can focus on the quality of outcomes,” he adds.
The Forbes ranking is a testimony to the school’s forwardthinking philosophy of creating truly global business leaders who’re making a mark in the world.
“I feel humbled to be part of the S P Jain legacy and wish more success and power to our network of alumni and students” says Shelly Dhingra, who completed her GMBA in 2013.
Ekta Goyal, a , Head of Enterprise Risk Management at Allied World Assurance, Singapore, says, “After six years of industry experience, pursuing my GMBA with SP Jain was one of the best decisions of my life. We got to experience the culture, business, and the political/ legal framework of three different countries, which we could later apply in our regional and global roles at our workplaces.”
