    The School:

    SDSB is recognised as the most prestigious business school in Pakistan
    and one of the leading management development institutions in the
    region, with particular strengths in case based teaching and high
    quality research of contextual relevance and international
    significance.

    The School has well established academic programmes at the graduate
    (MBA, EMBA and PhD) and the undergraduate (BSc Accounting and Finance
    and Management Sciences) levels. It boasts a research active faculty,
    nearly 60 in number, who have published in a range of international
    journals, and are active in professional associations such as the
    Academy of Management, European Academy of Management, and INFORMS.
    SDSB’s practice portfolio includes a highly regarded executive
    education centre with a customised facility, which regularly draws top
    management teams from the leading corporations in the country.

    The School’s current focus is on fostering strong research
    capabilities, increased teaching excellence and greater
    internationalisation. The School is also currently working towards
    full accreditation by the AACSB.

    Selection Criteria:
