SPJCM's EMBA Program Present day emerging business challenges require corporates to create a reservoir of versatile executives, having a strong blend of functional knowledge along with a general management perspective. Formal management education through a full-time MBA program can meet this need; but is not practical, requiring executives to stay away from their work place for an extended period. Distance education programs and other similar options lack quality, relevance to field realities, and hence, effectiveness. The EMBA program at SPJCM is uniquely designed, to ensure it has the potential to address the above shortcomings and bridge the gap by providing high quality management education to practicing executives in the UAE and Singapore.

Working as a member of a team, on one hand you will learn the latest business theories and practices courtesy SPJCM's renowned faculty while learning about real-world business practices from your peers - in the process, you develop life-long relations with both. The Unique Differentiators:- SPJCM’s EMBA program is a result of continuous, meticulous upgrading of the curriculum and is benchmarked against the best programs in the world. The curriculum reflects an exclusive focus on creating and nurturing specialist managers and professionals in the fields of Finance, Marketing and Operations. The program structure is designed in such a way that it starts with a set of core courses on general management and builds on a set of specialization courses, which provide an in-depth coverage in a particular area. This rich exposure to a wide variety of relevant courses in a particular
field (Finance, Marketing or Operations) ensures the development and
application of highly specialized skills and competencies in that particular
field.
Philosophic Underpinnings SPJCM's approach to its academic offerings has been to formulate details based on definite and distinctive foundational premises. For the EMBA program, these are:
The philosophic underpinnings stated above are planned to be achieved through a range of pedagogic inputs and learning themes built into the program design. Application of knowledge and customization are the two fundamental features of the architecture of the program. At every stage, participants will be encouraged to introspect with a view to inculcating in them an ability to use intellectual curiosity to handle real life problems and learn from the outcomes thereof.
The EMBA is a two-year program designed to meet the needs of academically qualified professionals who wish to pursue an MBA degree while continuing with the full responsibilities of their workplace. The program requires serious commitment on part of the individual. The course work is rigorous and demanding; the result is an educational experience which ranks among the finest available in the region today. Contact classes on the campus will be in one week modules and each one week module will be followed by a one week off-contact period wherein participants will be required to do assignments and study to reinforce what they have learnt in the previous week.
In the first year of the EMBA Program, all students take the same courses together. The selection and sequence of courses are pre-designed and interdisciplinary perspectives define the program. The diverse inputs on Accounting, IT, Marketing, Finance, Organizational Behavior, Economics, and Statistics challenge EMBA participants to delve deeply into fundamental business practices and the underlying forces that make them work. The curriculum balances practical problem-solving with the development of broad perspectives and conceptual skills. Participants learn to use an array of academic disciplines and to analyze and understand key business issues. Course work will prepare them to analyze situations, identify problems, create solutions, and implement these within the context of an organization. The result is a program that combines the study of key conceptual frameworks
and application of those frameworks to current business issues. In the second year participants can opt to specialize and develop competencies in one of these areas: Finance, Marketing or Operations. A list of courses under each specialization is detailed in the program architecture later in the brochure. The program also organizes students into study groups of four to six members, which work on assignments and present the same as a team. This tight group format helps create life-long professional and personal relationships among members. It also closely replicates the real world of business, which operates through cooperation and team-work.
