In the beginning of this century in India, we have started realizing that old models of producing general managers and functional specialist are no longer adequate, in today’s environment. Our education needs be more focused towards satisfying industry requirements.


This realization laid down the foundation of Aegis.


The Aegis School of Business, located in Central Business District (CBD) of New Mumbai, India, is an international Business School providing Postgraduate Program in Business Management (Master of Business Administration - MBA), Masters Program in Telecommunication Management, Masters in Information Systems as well as executive education programs for business executives. It was founded on 2002 and formally inaugurated by then Chief minister of MP at his official residence in Bhopal <ref> </ref>



Aegis School's internationalism is enhanced by an academic alliance with Schiller International University (SIU). Aegis student exchange and credit transfer is available with Schiller for programs like PGP, MPTM and MPIS/MS Computer Science. Aegis – Schiller association offers you an option to study 8 months in Mumbai and one semester of 4 months, having 6 courses, at any of Schiller’s eight campuses in Florida (USA), London (UK), Heidelberg (GERMANY), Paris and Strasbourg (FRANCE), Madrid (SPAIN), Leysin and Engelberg (SWITZERLAND), leading to an MBA, MBA IT, MS Computer Science, (MBA) International Business, (MA) Communications degree from Schiller International University.<ref> </ref>

How did we develop the Aegis programs ? We Asked….

Industry Concerns

Students lack international exposure

Students have poor teamwork skills

Students lack the experience and traits required of managers

Students have narrow interests and knowledge

Programs too theoretical

Excessive program length

Outmoded pedagogy and curriculum

International programs too expensive for Indian market

Poor at cross functionality

Poor written communication

Mostly MBA’s are perceived to be trained for sales/ marketing functions so corporate is reluctant to offer jobs in other functional areas like operations, consultancy, finance.

Unrealistic expectations of candidates coming out of Business School

Engineering graduates are not aware of basic concepts and are not aware of current technologies.
