“The world is a global village,” declared Marshall McLuhan. In a world that is shrinking in size, “Death of distance” and “the world is flat” are colorful phrases that epitomize the highly globalized planet that we currently live in. This globalized world has spawned the need for professionally trained people to lead and manage in a global environment. The highly rigorous one-year, full-time, Global MBA program of the S P Jain Center of Management (S P Jain) is designed to train individuals to work in the new global economy. With over 900 teaching hours, the course is equal to most two-year MBA programs. The program is conducted jointly at S P Jain’s Dubai and Singapore campuses. Through this program, students gain global exposure in two highly globalized cities of the world. Singapore is one of the world’s leading financial capitals with highly developed IT and Telecom industries. Dubai is one of the fastest growing economies of the world with the services and marketing sectors far outpacing other sectors. S P Jain Dubai and Singapore has academic support of S P Jain Institute of Management & Research (SPJIMR), Mumbai. Over the years, SPJIMR has become reputed for its innovative and relevant curriculum and gets consistently ranked amongst the top Indian and Asian business schools. In a survey conducted by Asia Inc (September 2004), a leading Singapore-based magazine, SPJIMR has been ranked as the sixth best MBA School in South Asia. Today companies prefer to recruit individuals who have general management skills as well as domain expertise. Managing a person's wealth could be quite different from managing logistics in a global company. It's an era of sharpening one's management skills - an age of specialization. S P Jain's MBA program offers nine cutting edge super-specializations in:
Students can choose the stream of their choice. At the end of the program S P Jain's placement services will assist
students in securing exciting jobs with top global companies located
worldwide. S P Jain's placement record so far has been 100%. Dubai-Singapore two cities cross over model When students enroll for S P Jain's Global MBA program, they have the privilege of studying in not one but two world-class cities during their one year with us. Students choosing our Finance or IT specializations do their core curriculum in Singapore and then 'cross over' to Dubai to study their specializations. Those who choose Marketing, Global HRM or Global Logistics & Supply Chain Management first go to Dubai for their core curriculum and move to Singapore for their specializations. In both cities S P Jain's renowned faculty teaches the students. The faculty's efforts are supplemented by talented local faculty, resulting in a truly integrated program that combines the best of both the cities. An internship opportunity in each city completes the learning experience. Many recruiters have operations spanning Singapore, India and Dubai. They will benefit by having a ready pool of talented individuals, pre-exposed to these fast growing geographies. Even if a student returns to his home country after the program, the international exposure will greatly help him/her in understanding the global economy better. Aimed at students aspiring to achieve greater heights in the modern business world, S P Jain's global MBA program is a rigorous one-year residential program conducted jointly between the Dubai and Singapore campuses. The high intensity requires the students to be available till late night and the program is compulsorily residential at both campuses to allow for this. The course imparts skill-sets of highly relevant management concepts, and trains students to apply these in the real world. It provides a global learning curriculum, which is taught by a diverse faculty from across the world, and is designed to meet potential recruiters' requirements, which ensures smooth job placements. The key objective of the program is to train students to work in a global environment. Students learn different management perspectives through textbook study, case studies, group exercises, projects, computer simulations, and management videos. Though S P Jain teachers have exemplary ratings and excellent classroom techniques, the Institute puts the onus of learning on the knowledge seeker. Every session is preceded with pre-reading, and a daily 'online quiz' ensures this. The focus during classroom sessions is on clarifications and applications of concepts. Another aspect which is addressed by S P Jain is development of a student's soft skills. The most critical challenges faced by new managers, after their stint in a B School are on soft skills including managing supervisors, subordinates, leading a team, conflict management and other people management skills. In order to address these issue a series of personal growth interventions are provided at specific times in the program. These include Managing Cross Cultural Diversity, Creativity and Problem Solving, Conflict Management, Interpersonal Psychology, Emotional Intelligence and Presentation Skills, etc. These interventions are done on a workshop mode and utilize innovative approaches such as role-playing, simulation games, experiential exercises and feedback techniques. The result of these innovative initiatives is the molding of a thoroughbred, balanced professional, who is prepared to take on work-related challenges from day one Specializations have been chosen keeping in mind the need for highly
trained and talented people in the fast growing finance, banking, retail,
services, human resources, FMCG, IT and logistics sectors. These specializations
provide the students with 'industry specific' knowledge and have been
uniquely designed and taught by industry practitioners who lend their
real world experience to the curriculum and the classroom. Specializations
