Globsyn welcomes first International Finance batch




Globsyn Business School (GBS) since inception is committed to make the school a globally networked b school with a vision to provide Indian students quality foreign education at competitive price points. GBS, in keeping with this vision has entered into an academic collaboration with the AB Freeman School of Business, Tulane University to offer Indian students a world-class & benchmarked program on International Finance. The finance program of AB Freeman School of Business has been ranked among the top ten in the world by the Financial Times.

On 26th May 2009 the first batch of 23 handpicked students for this niche & prestigious program started their journey at Globsyn Business School with the induction program. Present in this program were Mr. Bikram Dasgupta (Chairman & CEO, Globsyn Group), Prof. R. C. Bhattacharya (Vice Chairman & Director, Globsyn Business School), Prof. Subhendu Dey (Associate Dean – Academic Affairs, Globsyn Business School), Prof. J. N. Mukhopadhyay (Dean – FD&R, Globsyn Business School) and other professors and officials.

In his speech Mr. Bikram Dasgupta gave a brief introduction about the 100 year old Tulane University and said that this program has an advanced curriculum and students would need to put in extra efforts to become successful in this high value program. He remarked that after successful completion of this program the students will have much better prospect in the job market than a normal PGPM student.

As a part of the innovative curriculum design top faculties from the Tulane University will come down to Globsyn Business School to teach different modules of this course and the students will also travel to New Orleans, USA to complete two advanced modules at the university campus, where they would be exposed to a ‘live’ trading floor for ‘real’ & hands on learning.
