Professor (Dr.) Mayank Dhaundiyal, Dean, Jindal Global Business School, said that “This is a truly exceptional opportunity for JGU students to study management, finance, and entrepreneurship at an Ivy League institution. This programme will provide our students with extensive exposure, and help them become globally conscious, and conceptually strong, thereby dramatically increasing their employability. It will enable and empower them to become leaders and entrepreneurs.”

Professor (Dr.) Ashish Bharadwaj, Dean, Jindal School of Banking and Finance said: “Modern finance education requires a deep understanding of international legal frameworks, multiplicity of regulatory compliance, evolving business needs and diverse functions. Globalisation of trade and business has created new opportunities to explore, but this also requires a deeper understanding of different markets and the critical role of finance in building businesses. The Jindal-Wharton partnership will equip students with interdisciplinary learning and skills that will future-proof their careers in banking, finance, and allied areas.” Professor (Dr.) Mohan Kumar, Dean, Office of International Affairs and Global Initiatives, JGU observed, “The Jindal-Wharton collaboration is an example of global engagement that has a direct impact on the life and learning of our students. The fact that a substantial number of students from JGU will be spending time at the Wharton School in the USA learning some of the cutting-edge issues relating to finance and entrepreneurship from scholars and practitioners will be a transformative opportunity for the students.”
