Hi everyone,

i am a BBA graduate with 18 months of work experience.. With my current profile I have narrowed my choice to to two programs. The first one is the Masters in Global Business at SP Jain Dubai/Singapore which can later be converted to an MBA, post 2 yrs of experience after the MGB program ends. My other option is the PGPB program started by Bocconi University in Mumbai. A major difference in these programs is that the Bocconi program is for 2 years.

It's a hard choice. They are both very strong. The Bocconi programme has more content, and the opportunity to study in the US and Europe. However, the SP Jain programme is established, will have stronger placement services and leads to masters degrees. Personally, I would take the SP Jain route.

Thanks a lot for the reply Duncan. SP Jain seems to be providing most of the placements in India, in that case wouldn't it be more advisable to study in India?

Well, I think SP Jain is as good a route as any to employment in India. However, you will have an international experience with SP Jain, both with some international classmates and international exposure. You'll also find it easier to get into SP Jain than into an programme in India of comparable quality. However, if the international aspect isn't valuable for you then why not study in India...
