DUBAI, U.A.E, May 4, 2010 /PRNewswire/ -- The world has changed significantly over the past decade, and most of the world's challenges are truly problems without passports. Having a first degree is no longer sufficient for training tomorrow's managers and leaders to address these global issues. What is needed is a global mindset, and fostering that global mindset must start at the undergraduate level.

S P Jain is one of Asia's top ranked Business Schools and is highly regarded for its MBA programs. With campuses in Dubai and Singapore and a new one being built in Sydney, it is fast gaining global recognition. S P Jain has been bestowed with the gold standard in MBA accreditation by the Association of MBAs (AMBA), UK and is also registered as an Institute of Higher Learning by the Dept of Education and Training NSW, Australia. The degrees at the end of the program undertaken by students enrolled in S P Jain's MBA and BBA programs would be an Australian degree. S P Jain Center of Management has been ranked the #1 institution of Higher Learning in the UAE by A C Nielsen.

S P Jain is now launching its new Global BBA Program in September 2010. A uniquely crafted 2 + 2 model, it is a four-year full-time program where students spend 2 years in Singapore and 2 years in Sydney. Since both cities are important geographies for understanding business and culture, by living and studying in these two cities students will emerge with a global mindset.

The curriculum lays a solid foundation in major business subjects and also includes several liberal arts subjects to impart a holistic education to its students. It provides a firm grounding in critical thinking, integrating information, perspective-taking, recognizing bias, enhancing the cultural quotient, and advanced communication skills, which are at the very heart of a liberal education.

S P Jain is keen to attract international students and is offering excellent scholarship options for outstanding students. For further details, please visit their website http://www.spjain.org or e-mail at bba@spjain.org.

In short, the Global BBA Program from S P Jain will help students to develop the critical smart skills necessary for a global mindset and empower them to tackle evolving global challenges.
