Adventure! SP Jain Jaguars

SE Asia's top universities sent 100 teams this year to the TATA Crucible Campus Quiz, held at the National University of Singapore in early February. Among them were 25 Jaguars from S P Jain, who braved grilling on topics from the world of business and economy. Competition was brutal, with questions about business houses, personalities, brands and markets, and more. Jags battled against teams from world-renowned universities such as NUS, National Technological University (NTU), ESSEC Asia Pacific, Singapore Institute of Management (SIM), Singapore Management University (SMU), and Malaysia's University of Science.

When Tang Chi Uy joined S P Jain as a freshman two years ago, he was shy and unsure of himself. So it was little short of amazing -- even to himself -- when he initiatied, organized and served as master of ceremonies for the Dubai campus' Cultural Talent Show. Held on April 2, and supported by a lot of help from Tang's friends and the Global Learning Team, the event featured an astonishing 25 performances from both undergraduate and graduate student cohorts.

Since coming back from winter vacation, the BBA 2014 batch spent their first student life event of the second semester at the Global Village in Dubai. Students was to meet and be briefed at the main entry gate at 5 PM. After having passed all the entry tickets, students proceeded to join the rest of the crowd entering the gate, which was an exceptional replica of the St. Basil cathedral in Russia. The students broke into different smaller groups and moved quickly to explore the different ‘corners of the world’. The park was filled not only with masses of different people from different countries, but with well-designed replicas of different national wonders and architecture celebrating the different cultures that were showcased. To mention a few, the Opera House of Sydney, the Taj Mahal of India, and the Eiffel tower of France. The park caters to all, as this tourist destination allocates big sectors for each country to hold different shop stalls.
