Universal Business School is pioneer in futuristic Education which is Skill and Experiential based education rather than Degree based traditional education system. The Industry 5.0 will come with unique challenges and the current degree base rigid programs are going to be redundant. Looking at challenges and skill sets require in coming days, UBS proudly present the future of Business Management along with Liberal Arts combination which will fulfil the demand of skill sets required and are an ideal complement to a business education. They help students learn how to synthesize information, connect dots, analyze facts, think logically and make educated decisions — real-world skills that contribute to business success.
In our view, an integrated liberal arts and business education produces thoughtful and well-informed civic leaders while giving the students a plethora of career options; they can choose only business management or a combination of business management with liberal arts. It cultivates individual freedom through reflection and self-awareness. It leads individuals to think for themselves. It creates an understanding of the larger context of business issues and the role of business in society, history, culture and ideology. It leads to more creative, innovative and entrepreneurial thinking as a result of the cross-fertilization of ideas and the constantly fresh perspective that this produces.
Along with the major as business management, students can choose a minor like Design Thinking, Psychology, Sociology, Design, Sports Management and Data Analytics. This allows them to take classes in other subjects that may not directly relate to their major but gives students a wider understanding of their world by showing them how different fields are connected. And it improves students’ critical thinking skills by helping them look at problems in many different ways while preparing them to take on other jobs which require such skills apart from business management.
DEVELOPING FUTURE LEADERS
Keeping the future leaders in mind who are looking at wider options than just business management, it is time to combine the best of business education with the well-documented benefits of a liberal arts education. We tend to emphasize the skills associated with the liberal arts and its importance for business -- communication, teamwork and critical thinking being the most obvious examples. While relevant, those skills still need to be anchored in the rich content associated with the liberal arts -- the social, cultural and geopolitical context in which we work and the ethical dimensions of decision making -- in order to prepare students to be strong leaders in business.

BA (HONS) - Batch 7
I am very grateful to UBS for giving me the flexibility to participate in MTV Ace of Space Season 2 which allowe me to pursue my dream in acting whilst completing my bachelor's degree.
Former CEO - Excolearn Private Limited
Account Executive - PMG Asia (Event Management)
UBS gave me the most amazing opportunity to be a CEO of a private limited company during my graduation. I was able to organise Midnight Sunrise (a youth festival and corporate networking event) on a mega scale attracting students and professionals from Mumbai as well as Pune. This gave me leadership and organising skills which resulted in my current career with Asia's leading event management company.
BA (HONS) - Batch 1
The BA (Hons) degree introduced me to an international curriculum which developed my critical thinking as well as analytical skills with hands on experience on projects/assignments. With this program, I was able to go to the prestigious UCLA (University of California, Los Angeles, USA) for further studies.
