OUR TEACHING PROCESSES ARE IMBUED WITH EXPERIENTIAL

LEARNING A KEY FOCUS OF ALL OUR FACULTY

A rich pedagogy, driven by a balanced mix of faculty comprising of

academicians, researchers and professionals drawn from business and

industry creates the right meeting point for the best minds in the country.

TEACHING EXCELLENCE

OUR PROFESSORS

16


20/49

The pedagogy offers a mixed bag of learning styles. It predominantly involves case discussions to leverage

the research conducted by the students on the market and the industry, by encouraging active dialogue and

debate. In areas where advanced management thought is to be imparted to students, classroom techniques

are aided by simulation techniques and real life scenarios. Out of class interaction among the participants

during case preparation, assignments and project presentations enable participants to learn to work in

effective teams. This learning will enable them to assimilate with ease in the corporate teams, when they begin

their professional career. It not only helps them to learn about group dynamics, but also leads to building life

long relationships with fellow students.

The assignments which our students will undertake with SMEs, who are members of UBS

Entrepreneurs Club, will bring them face to face with real time challenges faced by these organisations.

With their Mentor Professors support and guidance, they will research the variables involved in the business

problem being tackled. In a few weeks after the student / faculty team have submitted their recommendations

to the SME concerned, they will have an opportunity to go back to the SME firm and see, how the real life

situation had played out. This will enable the students to get a first hand experience of tackling challenges,

faced in business and industry.

We sincerely believe that mentoring sessions with our faculty, will help

our students in taking responsible decisions, in respect of many facets

of their life including the successful completion of their management

education and enabling them to make informed career choices.

SUPPORTING YOU -

MENTORING OPPORTUNITIES:

26


30/49

We have incorporated the words Transforming Lives in our Logo. It was with a serious intent, that we have

included these words. Our Faculty will range in age from 25 to 55 years. They will serve as role models for our

students. All Faculty members will take-on the responsibility to mentor eight students each, during every

trimester. Students will have the choice to retain or change their Mentor Professor, after the first and the

second trimester. We believe the proposed fortnightly Mentoring Sessions, will enable students to better

understand lifes challenges and responsibilities. These Sessions can be a life changing experience, for many

students, besides forging better and ever lasting relationships, between the students and the faculty.

Learning Beyond the Classroom:

Realising Personal Achievement Potential

To become a leader, one has to have self awareness, be a thinker and a role model to ones associates. In

other words become a complete professional. This involves managing oneself, managing ones work and the

managing of ones team. For this an individual needs 360 degrees development. At UBS we organise many

activities to enhance the social awareness, values and general development of our students. Cultural

awareness will be inculcated by assigning different student groups to organise events relating to our history

and culture. Similarly, many events are organised towards enhancing awareness of global history, literature

and cultures. Through these processes we seek to develop responsible citizens of the world, who are then

able to fulfill their personal achievement potential, as managers in global organisations. We will establish at

UBS, the Indian Institute for Leadership Development.

There is much more to becoming a Manager, besides developing thefunctional competencies, critical to job performance. Management education

at UBS is designed to develop Leaders at different levels, in organisations.

The UBS Senate

Universal Business SchoolTM has a strong interface with Industry, we have

established the UBS Senate with a membership of fifty CEOs, Directors,

VPs and Functional Heads from leading Indian Companies.

CAREERS AND EMPLOYBILITY

OF OUR STUDENTS

The Senate will meet three times a year, to review our courses, our academic processes and teaching

pedagogy, before the commencement of each Trimester. The objective is to ensure that the competencies

being imparted to our students, match with the requirements of business and industry. UBS also undertakes

Consulting and Training assignments with many of these organisations. Our students will get opportunities for

supporting several of these Consulting Assignments. This will give our students several opportunities to learn

about different facets of corporate operations. They will also glean important learnings about the challenges

that are faced in different industry segments.

28


32/49

Universal Business SchoolTM has set-up an Entrepreneurs Club, with a membership of forty rapidly growing

entrepreneurial organisations. These interactions will also provide opportunities for our students to

showcase their talents, to these entrepreneurs, who could later offer placement opportunities to them.

The Senate and the UBS Entrepreneurs Club will provide our Faculty and Students with ample opportunities

to showcase the quality of academic rigor, practiced at our Business School. As the senior management of

both these groups relate and interact with our Institute, they will be exposed to the exceptional executive

talent, which our students will exhibit. This will certainly attract them towards recruiting students from UBS.

Our students will get opportunities to conduct Field Studies for these

organisations, under the stewardship of one of their Professors. This will

give them hands-on experience about real life challenges faced by

entrepreneurial organisations. These opportunities will serve as an

extremely useful learning experience.

INTERNATIONAL EXPOSURE

We live in a globalised world. Organisations seek out global markets,

source people, skills and technologies from across the globe and the entire

supply chain management involves global interfaces.

Students seeking global careers can study Managing International Business as an elective in the third

Trimester. This will also involve an Industrial Visit and Networking trip to three European counteries, for ten

days. Students electing to take-up Managing International Business will be required to pay an additional

Course Fee of Rs. 1,00,000 (Rupees One Lac or US $2,300), to cover the cost of international travel. This fee

will be payable, only by students who take up this elective, before the commencement of the third Trimester.

30


34/49

We believe these endeavours on our part will improve the quality of learning to be imparted at our Business

School. Our students will better understand the nuances of business as they vary across different continents

of our globalised world. These interactions will prepare our students better for international assignments,

during their future career with corporates.

Further, having these international citizens on our Campus, will also assist in developing better understanding

and relationships, between people of different races, religions and nationalities. We believe this will

progressively contribute, in some small measure, towards supporting peace and amity between all peoples,

across all continents. The Tuition and other Fees applicable to both Indian and International students will be

the same.

Our domestic and international students will pay the same Fees and will be treated uniformly and

with equity, in all respects.

Our Business Management Institute is titled as Universal Business SchoolTM,

since it is our avowed policy to bring together both Faculty and Students

from across the globe.

31

International Faculty and Students:


35/49

Our associates Business Scorecard India, have been conducting Consulting and Training Assignments

with over 40 leading Indian and MNC Corporates over the last 10 years. We have built credible and enduring

relationships with these organizations:

We have provided for an elective titled Management Learnings from Indian Spiritual Heritage. This subject in

our view would be of interest to international students. We believe that with India poised to become the fourth

biggest economy in GDP terms, in the next few years, learning about the Indian ethos, would be of considerable

interest to international students. Of course, Indian students are also welcome to take up this elective.

During this course we shall also expose students to the practice of Meditation, Yoga and Pranic Healing.

Research, Consulting and Corporate Training

Studies in Indian Cultural Heritage:

Meditation, Yoga and Pranic Healing

32


36/49

These endeavors will help in the further development of our faculty members. The quality of these

relationships with our Cl ient groups will grow stronger, as our Faculty continues to build greater credibi lity with

these firms. Progressively, we will get opportunities to conduct Business Research, on behalf of these client

organisations. We are also in dialogue with Business Schools in Europe / USA for participating in joint

Research Projects, in collaboration with them. Our students will participate in these Consulting and Research

Projects and this will certainly deepen their knowledge and expertise, in respect of challenges faced by

business and industrial organisations. This will in turn enhance the employability of our students.

We will establish Universal Research Institute to focus on creating Indian and global case studies.

Our Faculty will get easy access to these organisations, for Consulting and

Training Assignments, to be henceforth conducted under the aegis of

Universal Business SchoolTM.

We certainly believe in practicing first and then educating others towards

adopting the tenets of Corporate Governance and CSR, as a way of life. At

UBS we have established a Welfare Centre within our Campus. We

propose to help the people of villages close to our Institute, in several ways.

Here we provide to the people of Kushivali and Vadap villages, Primary Health facilities and also classes for

pre-primary children, so that they are motivated to join primary schools. The Welfare Centre will also have a

place for conducting Ganesh Pujas and celebrating other festivals, with our neighboring communities. Our

students will participate in the management of the Welfare Centre, so that they see the value in pursuing noble

causes, even when they start their own careers, with the corporate world. Our students will also be

encouraged to play field games with youth teams from Kushivali and Vadap villages. This will enable our

students and faculty, to better understand the challenges of rural India and bring us closer to our immediate

community, living in the close proximity of our Campus.
