Do you think industry professionals with experience in the corporate world are better teachers for a B-school? At least this is what Tarun Anand, Founder of Universal Business School believed in and hence came up with the truly global business school that focuses on andragogy rather than an age-old academic pedagogy. In this conversation, we tried understanding what makes UBS unique, when it comes to B-schools in India, and what exactly is andragogy that it stresses on the most.

Along with Tarun, we had Vijay Tandon, Director- PGDM and International Programs at UBS delving deeper into the various aspects of learning and methodology used by UBS. Talking more about how the institute was structured and what differentiates it from the rest, Tarun talks about his humble beginnings and rising up to becoming the South Asia MD of Thomson Reuters. Backed by 60 Global CEOs and Business Leaders, UBS is an institute that is truly global in its outlook. Right from the opportunities students get after their two years on the campus to the exchange programs offered by the institute, Tarun and Vijay discuss everything in detail.
Tarun and Vijay further talk about the importance of experiential learning and how UBS puts emphasis on creating environmentally conscious leaders of the future.
