S P Jain Students Speak

S P Jain's experience has been truly rewarding. When I was contemplating
pursuing an MBA, I had several options and S P Jain offered me a
unique value proposition - the twin city model. I wondered whether
this was just a ploy from another top notch b-school from India
to expand into different geographies for monetary reasons (not that
it was).I was proven wrong during the 3rd week of my MBA when our
marketing course started. The examples used in our class discussions
were mostly localized, but the thoughts were truly global. It really
forced us to think how to do business in different markets. Before
joining the program I was indeed finicky about UAE. Now, I can assertively
say my stint at Dubai and Singapore has certainly added value to
me.Another great opportunity that came our way was a consulting
engagement that we did for a US based IT firm. They were evaluating
if UAE's banking sector offered any scope to sell products/services.
As a part of the engagement we did a holistic market research and
analysis of technology investments in UAE's banking sector and came
up with our recommendations. It was immensely challenging since
we had to do a lot of primary research that required interaction
with UAE based banks. I'm confident that the learning's that I've
gained through this MBA program will be of immense help as I return
to my professional life after my rendezvous with management education.
It was a truly global MBA!If S P Jain was listed, I would surely
put my money on them, coz they take care of all stake holders seriously.
This is by far the best investment that I've made till date! |

The Global MBA program was a truly global experience giving us a
holistic perspective of two very unique cultures - Dubai and Singapore,
and helped us understand the business perspectives in a mature market
like Singapore and a developing market like the GCC. The program
gave us a platform to polish our knowledge and skills and prepared
us for the international markets and helped us transform into truly
global managers. |

Abu Dhabi Investment Company - Abu Dhabi, UAE
S P Jain is the place for a global MBA because we get training in
two great cities, two great cultures - one a rising economy and
the second a matured one - all this makes you strong enough for
the professional world. We experienced global teaching - professors
from India (even IIMs), USA, Dubai, Singapore and Pakistan. My one-year
investment banking specialization at S P Jain was intense, fun-filled
and motivating, all at one time. It really taught me what group
dynamics and team-based learning is. S P Jain's MBA has polished
me and taught me what the CA degree was not able to do. |

thought process and a global outlook |

"After a successful career stint of five years with Citibank
and HSBC, I chose S P Jain's one year program primarily looking
for value addition at a critical juncture of my professional life.
The GMBA program gave me an accelerated track with intense academic
rigor and peer learning. I look forward to the new forthcoming challenge
where I would be able to leverage my previous experience and contribute
effectively on a global platform" |

"Confronted with the onerous task of shifting careers from
mainstream Information Technology to Finance, I was pretty much
flummoxed with the kind of new thoughts and ideas I had to face
everyday. However with the excellent curriculum that S P Jain, Dubai-Singapore
offers, along with the opportunities to work in teams, growth in
stature is just a by-product. S P Jain has not only given me the
self-belief to prove myself on the world stage but also a broader
perspective to business and towards life in the wider sense." |

"My year at S P Jain was one of the most enriching experiences
of my life. With a great CAT score in tow I was contemplating
what school would be the right choice for me as a launch pad for
my career as a Wealth Manager. S P Jain seemed the perfect fit
, not only did it provide a unique focus on my chosen career path
but also the twin city model seemed really attractive as well.
The program provided me with an enriching opportunity to experience
and respects the differences between two contrasting cultures
and has taught me to be a true Global Manager.
The faculty and course content is what I really think set S P
Jain apart from the other MBA programs. Experienced faculty from
all over the world, visiting wisdom and a great in house team
helped us get the most out of this one year. The program comprised
of group works, individual assignments, quizzes and tests that
kept us on our toes and also encouraged an in-depth study of local
markets and encouraged us to go out and interact with people from
the industry in both Dubai and Singapore.Our SGP and Dissertation
projects provided us a chance to study our areas of interest in
depth and obtain a thorough understanding of the same under the
expert guidance of our experienced and knowledgeable Dean faculty
and even local industry veterans. Though challenging and tedious,
in retrospect it was one of the best experiences of the program.
Being a fresher I was very vary of how much I would benefit from
a one year MBA program but my worries were allayed with the encouragement
and efforts of faculty and my fellow batch mates and soon I was
at par with the others.Before we knew it, it was time for Placements.
Being on the committee and having seen how well the whole process
had been handled and the efforts put in by our coordinator I was
confident that all of us would land ourselves with dream profiles
and that is exactly what happened.At the end of the program with
a dream role in hand I can confidently say that this is a perfect
program for people who are focused about Wealth Management and
Private Banking. I graduated - placed, happy, confident and wiser
with fond memories and loads of new friends- truly trained to
be a Global Manager! As a financial planner i defiantly endorse
the program and advice you to invest this one year of your life
at S P Jain.

"The two city model is a truly unique concept and this is looked
upon in good light by most recruiters given the global nature of
today's business environment. Apart from great faculty taking us
through the course materials it was enriching to understand the
cultural nuances of both cities which percolate to business relationships
as well. The one year program was extremely hectic but my batch
mates made it an extremely enjoyable experience, I can safely say
that I have made 'friends for life' during this program." |
