Let’s find out.
1. One of the top five Indian business schools with highest ROI
Based on an in-depth analysis by the Times Group, Universal Business School has emerged as one of the top-five Indian b-schools in terms of return on investment (ROI), alongside leading names including FMS Delhi, JBIMS, and IIT Bombay.
The institute’s one-year global MBA program in association with Cardiff University offers an eye watering return on investment of 242% over a three-year period. Students in the two-year MBA program also say that the program offers 100% ROI, and that they can recover the program fee in the very first year of working post-graduation.
UBS also provides exceptional returns beyond financial benefits. Graduates of the institute’s MBA programs gain valuable networks of contacts in their industries, career advancement opportunities, and personal brand recognition.
2. ‘Five Star University’ for best infrastructure
India Today magazine has rated Universal Business School as a ‘Five Star’ university for the impeccable infrastructure on its 40-acre campus in Mumbai.
The UBS campus is also India’s first ‘green’ business school, committing to and implementing sustainable practices such as investing in solar and wind energy, recycling, rain water harvesting, and others.
3. The first private business school to achieve an INR 1 crore package
Universal Business School has seen exceptional growth in recruitment figures since its establishment more than a decade ago.
But the real feather in the institute’s cap was when it became one of only six b-schools in India to achieve INR 1 crore plus salary for its students, with the other five institutes including IIMs Ahmedabad, Bangalore and Calcutta.
4. India’s first business school with an AI Quantum Computing Lab, AR/VR & MR Lab, and IoT Lab
Technological innovation has taken the business world by storm, and many businesses are now including emerging tech like quantum computing, artificial intelligence, mixed reality, and internet of things in their processes and products.
To prepare students for the new and rapidly evolving world of business, UBS has established state of the art AI quantum computing, AR/VR & MR, and IoT labs. These labs help facilitate innovative thinking, nurture an entrepreneurial mindset, and create a strong ecosystem for learning.
Alongside, UBS is also in the process of introducing courses on new-world subjects including AI/ML, business analytics, deep learning, blockchain, quantum computing etc. to help students become future-ready.
5. World class faculty from leading global management institutions
It’s often said that the quality of education at a b-school is directly proportional to the quality of faculty imparting it. With this in mind, Universal Business School has brought in some of the brightest minds from across the globe to teach and mentor MBA students.
UBS’s faculty come with over 500 years of combined industry experience, and are alumni of eminent management institutions such as Stanford University, Oxford University, the IIMs, SPJIMR, and others.
Here’s a look at the esteemed faculty at Universal Business School.
6. Unique 80% experiential learning approach
While many other leading business schools emphasise lectures, textbooks, and memorization amongst other traditional classroom-based learning methods, Universal Business School has taken a different approach.
The institute’s PGDM and Global MBA courses are designed on the 3E model, i.e., Ethics, Experiential Learning, and Environment. Experiential learning makes up 80% of the b-school’s curriculum.
This approach to learning helps students become more involved and invested in the learning process and make connections between what they are learning and real-world situations.
Such an approach to learning also enhances creativity and encourages learners to step out of their comfort zones, take risks, and learn from their mistakes.

7. Only business school endorsed by 60 CEOs
Universal Business School is the only MBA institute in India that is endorsed by 60 CEOs who make up the institute’s board of governors.
The backing of such leaders, including former Chiefs of Staff of the Indian Defence Forces, speaks volumes about the institute’s commitment to quality management education and unparalleled graduation outcomes for its students.
Such an endorsement also helps the institute attract top recruiters from India and across the globe.
8. APAC’s first b-school with real-time trading room
Despite being one of the youngest b-schools in Asia, Universal Business School became the first management institute in Asia-Pacific to have the Thomson Reuters cross-asset trading room, with access to the world stock exchanges for all its students.
This software gives students a real trading experience with virtual money. It has 30 positions for training and displays global markets in real-time. Currently, UBS is one of the handful of b-schools in Asia that offers such sophisticated and immersive learning tools to management students.
9. Learning directly from leaders
At UBS, students are given a unique opportunity to work with a private limited company while pursuing their degree. This means students can start honing their leadership, management, and decision-making skills well before they join the corporate world.
UBS also provides students the invaluable opportunity to interact with 100+ CEOs and industry leaders and learn from their rich experiences.
Further, the institute also conducts ‘Leadership in Action’ workshops for its students. These workshops are led by leaders from business, social and political spheres. Students also play leading roles in b-school events and support many areas of operations, thereby collaborating with multiple stakeholders and building management skills.
10. Accredited partner schools
Universal Business School brings its students world-class management education from the top American and European universities with the highest level of accreditation standards, including the AACSB accreditation, earned by less than 5% of global business schools.
