The Transformational Power of a Multi-City Education
Dr. Balakrishna Grandhi, Dean of the MGB and Global MBA programs at SP Jain Global, emphasized the program’s core philosophy: "The MGB program is designed to be a transformational experience – one that shapes not just what our graduates know, but how they think and what they aspire to. When students, with limited or no experience at all, study and work across Singapore, Dubai and London before they graduate, it changes their mindset entirely."
He further elaborated on the direct impact of this immersive learning approach: "The outcomes we are seeing this year – the international placements, the salary progression, the breadth of organisations hiring our graduates – are a direct reflection of that. Employers are looking for management professionals who can bridge business and technology across markets and cultures, and the MGB is built to produce exactly that." This sentiment highlights the program’s intentional design to foster a global perspective and cultivate adaptable, forward-thinking business leaders.

A compelling example of the MGB program’s impact is the placement of Devansh Pandya, who has joined Apple India as an SAP Functional Analyst.

Studying across multiple cities and working on real business challenges gave me a perspective and problem-solving ability I could not have developed in a conventional classroom."
His reflection further emphasizes the practical application of his learning: "When I walked into my interviews at Apple, I was drawing on experiences that were genuinely mine – not just theory. Starting my career as an SAP Functional Analyst at Apple India feels like a natural extension of everything the programme prepared me for." Pandya’s journey exemplifies how the MGB program bridges the gap between academic learning and real-world application, preparing students for immediate impact in their chosen fields.
