Jindal Global Business School (JGBS) at OP Jindal Global University (JGU) in Haryana’s Sonipat has announced the launch of a new, fully residential one-year Global MBA (Business Analytics) degree programme for experienced working professionals.
This degree programme has been designed based on an extensive discussion with top analytics recruiters and understanding their underlying need for professionals with an integrated view of both analytics and management, the B-school stated in a press communique on January 31.
The students pursuing this programme will also acquire globally relevant business and analytical skills through an immersion programme at the Wharton School, University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, USA.
Understanding the current need for an industry integrated curriculum, this programme will be led by industry experts who will bring their deep knowledge of cutting-edge technology platforms and industry domains into the curriculum.
For this programme, JGBS has collaborated with top companies to provide hands-on experience of resolving real life business problems to the students.
The training and certifications from Amazon Web Services Academy and SAP University Alliance will train students with the necessary tools and techniques for business analytics, thereby helping make them industry ready, JGBS said in its communique.
Announcing the launch of this programme in Business Analytics, founding vice-chancellor of OP Jindal Global University, C Raj Kumar, said, "With a distinctively designed curriculum, our Global MBA in Business Analytics is all set to create a benchmark in the education sector. After the successful completion of the programme, the students will be able to address and analyse a wide range of issues in the context of business analytics."
Organisations are increasingly using data and its analysis to make strategic decisions in various areas, including product development, marketing, sales, operations, and even customer service, JGBS stated in its communique.
There is a need for professionals who can address this rapidly growing demand from the industry. Students who complete the one-year MBA degree programme's analytics-focused curriculum, will have a much better understanding of how to analyse, comprehend, and work with data to make critical decisions.
Mayank Dhaundiyal, dean of JGBS, said, "This high-impact one-year MBA programme will be co-delivered by top industry practitioners and our research-active in-house faculty members, ensuring cutting-edge content in our MBA classrooms.”
