Many (prospective) students may have this certain bit of apprehension before joining this course, as to should I take up the offer, is it worth the price, will it actually be able to cover up the entire MBA portion in a year. I was no stranger to these and I took the plunge. Let me tell you why I will not regret it for the rest of my life. Believe me when I tell you that this course has a lot to offer. What eventually matters is how YOU make the most of it. The whole idea of a master’s program is to make you self-sufficient and self-reliant. This means – DO NOT EXPECT SPOON FEEDING (this is the difference between your graduate school and a B-school). In terms of the study material, it is up to the mark and you will feel burdened. Burdened by the SBR’s (these three letters will haunt your life), CRP/ALPs (the next 3 to haunt), submissions, deliverables, etc.

Businesses have moved to the 21^st century and ironically Business Education still remains a legacy of the 20^th century.  Business schools across the world are supposed to educate and prepare the industry leaders of tomorrow.  Yet, a Gallup study of 2014 concludes that only 33% of business leaders across the globe agree B-school graduates have the required knowledge and skills their businesses need in a rapidly changing environment.  The ironic divide between academia and industry seems to be increasing every year.

“Dubai, Sydney, Singapore—all these three cities, for all the right reasons, are on a growth tangent. That’s where the synergy comes in. They are growing economies with great opportunities and conducive business environments. We are crafting global business leaders” – says Prof. Christopher Abraham, Professor and Head of Campus (Dubai).

Internships not only enhance classroom learning by integrating academic curriculum and real-world work experience but allow students to test out their interests and develop their long-range career plans.
Internship programs also help develop students’ overall maturity by strengthening resourcefulness, problem-solving skills, self-confidence, self-discipline and build a sense of responsibility. This is one of the main reasons why, at SP Jain, all MGB (Masters in Global Business) students take up 4 months of mandatory internship.

This is what Ayush Singh of NIT Rourkela had to say after his recent participation in SP Jain’s ASAP (Advance Student Admission Program) conducted in Jan 2015. It is prudent to note that students from premier technical and non-technical institutions across India are invited to sit for a competitive aptitude test on campus. The top 20% are then shortlisted and put through a second round of written test and rigorous interviews before one or two deserving students from the colleges are selected as brand ambassadors to participate in this prestigious and highly coveted program.
