Full time 2 Year AICTE/UGC approved PGDM/ MBA program offered from multiple locations Introducing Design by Industry, For the Industry Taking PG Management Seekers to Industry Directors Message Dear Friends,
Let me first share with you my reasons of reaching out to you.
I have a unique profile that the last business I started (GlobalLogic) grew to over 10,000 people within 10 years. I saw a hyper growth business from the inside and learnt first hand about people like you and me the most.
All this while, I saw a constant fact around me as I interacted and reviewed thousands of job applicants and handheld successful professionals. I found that a true professional is created within a great campus. A sincere hand- holding experience in campus which hones skills and boosts confidence is what is required for a great first job and a greater successful career progression. Specially when it comes to a PG Management program, an industry oriented program where each student is allowed to excel, is the key. Rajul Garg, Director I saw a great opportunity in re-imagining PGDM/MBA to meet todays needs. At Sunstone, we made it contemporary, industry oriented, more practical, even more fun! For your benefit, the product has been re-done ground up. It is common in other industries - 2G gave way to 3G, which is now giving way to 4G. These are not incremental improvements, they are complete re- designs. This is the real potential in a campus program that can be yours now.
We started on this path four years back with our path breaking problem based learning design for experiences professionals. We saw amazing results. We are now bringing this innovation to full time campus MBAs. We have partnered with colleges to do a complete re-design we take complete responsibility of the students from admissions to placement. We take complete responsibility of the students from admissions to placement. This is the future. Design by Industry, For the Industry Table of Contents About Sunstone What is Sunstone?

Having created large businesses from scratch myself, I have become a strong believer in human talent and the power of training. I undertake to make every student I come across, a real professional confident about his career progression in the corporate. Rajul Garg Director What is Sunstone? Sunstone started as a management education entity in 2010 directly emanating from the corporate domain with the idea of Designed by Industry, For the Industry. It then extended its footprint into the regular campus programs and expanded fast to encompass multiple campuses and courses thereby transforming itself into Sunstone Eduversity, an equivalent to a university system with diverse campuses and courses. Sunstone MBA is built over 4 primary pillars:
1. PG Management Education should be designed for the student seeking a career Management graduates should get a launch pad for a good start in their careers. Hence, education has to be very closely integrated with the industry requirements. Every part of Sunstone has the stamp of the corporate world. Right from the founders, faculty, the course curriculum, the live projects, internships, pedagogy, activities and finally placements.
2. Curriculum should be Job-oriented not Theory-based Management professionals are required to solve real business problems and work in intense business situations. Hence, the curriculum should be closer to real situations rather than covering theoretical aspects only. All courses at Sunstone are mandated to have real business problems and all theoretical aspects are followed by real business use cases.
3. Faculty from Industry should act like a career mentor Purpose of faculty is more than broadcasting the lectures- it should include coaching students for real corporate experiences. We believe that students only learn when they work with coaches to practice management concepts in realistic situations.
4. Use of technology to create new age managers Technology has reduced the information gap and students have access to the best possible content in the world. Sunstone leverages this content to make sure the students are aware of global phenomenon in management. Technology understanding is also a requirement to be a informed manager in current information age. Designed for industry
Customised management teaching pedagogy - UPLIFT
Faculty from Industry
Technology for global managers Having established itself as the best online management course in India, Sunstone now has under its domain UG courses like BBA and B.Tech. beside the flagship MBA / PGDM courses. Further showcasing its deep corporate connect and ensuring that knowledge percolates right into campus programs, Sunstone Eduversity is positioned on the lines of Corporate in Campus. Sunstone Difference Story of Sunstone The backbone of any educational enterprise is its faculty. The founder of Sunstone is Mr. Rajul Garg, a corporate entrepreneur and achiever. After his engineering graduation from IIT Delhi, he co- founded GlobalLogic and later delved into many more corporate ventures in technology, healthcare and education. He realized it is time to give back by enabling more and more young people Achieve Job-Winning-Ability and Learning-Attitude (JWALA) at college itself. He is the main force behind the curriculum development which comes not only from his vast corporate knowledge and interface but also with the support of a large team of Sunstone faculty who have successful corporate backgrounds.
The co-founder of Sunstone is Mr. Dinesh Singh who is also an engineer from IIT and an MBA from Cornell USA, who worked with best consulting companies such as McKinsey & Co and has diverse experience in education, telecom, healthcare, retail.

Each student personally mentored
Handling corporate interface & placements Sunstone in the context of evolution of PGDM/MBA An important thing to understand is the evolution of management education in India. The IIMs have been the leaders in this space and as the demand for management education grew several institutions mushroomed all over the country. Most of the colleges lacked the most important corporate interface which was required to ensure the end result of a commensurate placement for their students. The result was that the students slowly got more skeptical and the demand for the program started waning. Does that imply that the management program has lost its relevance? It is actually the other way around. The human capital has become even more important to any successful corporate enterprise. Management education in the same continuation is still an indispensable part therefore with most domains still needing management professionals. Management education needs to be practicable and applicable in real world scenarios. Sunstone is restructuring the management education to build new age managers who can instantaneously add value in corporate world Dinesh Singh Director, Student Experience Sunstones Corporate Connect Industry Integration

Several start ups with first time young entrepreneurs are helped and encouraged by our faculty. These startups are also allowed to function out of our campuses.

Entrepreneurship development being an important part of the development of the countrys economy and also sought after much more actively now by the young generation, Sunstone provides a unique opportunity to follow these aspirations at sunstone campuses.

There are two ways in which we make this happen firstly, by following a problem based learning pedagogy and secondly, by following a strong peer collaboration approach to learning. This unique pioneering and successful pedagogy of problem based learning has been graphically represented below. UPLIFT is further a customization to suit the student entering the campus programs.
Sunstones innovation in curriculum is interwoven with regular PGDM program to make students corporate ready. The program is integrated with regular industry internships at different intervals including before joining the program, after finishing 1 st year of program and final semester of the program. Sunstone Pedagogy - UPLIFT Sunstone has successfully pioneered the online PGPM course for working candidates with the Problem Based Learning pedagogy. Taking this forward and customizing the same for the regular full time classroom based PGDM/MBA programs, Business Programs at Sunstone Eduversity have come out with the UPLIFT pedagogy. U understand. Classroom Teaching as practiced mostly in regular courses with the objective to make students aware of the basic concepts.
P practice. Theory and practice are deeply interrelated where theory is a documentation of practice and as new things are practiced the theory keeps getting evolved. Understanding is enhanced by practical examples related to the actual usage in the industry.
L learn. This is the stage where the established problem based learning approach which is the hallmark of the teaching methodology at Sunstone is applied. The previous page has a detailed graphical representation explaining this part of the pedagogy. I imbibe. To ensure that any learning becomes a permanent part of the way a student thinks it has to be imbibed and internalized. That means that the student needs to do individual activities and got through evaluation methodologies which ensures that the student internalizes the learning and the same is reflected in the evaluation. F- future. Students need to be further mentored and tutored to think and innovate beyond the current way of doing things to how things could be shaped in the future. That is the way the industry grows and a competent manager not only has to be deeply involved but has to be the driver of this change. T technology. Technology has reduced the information gap and students have access to the best possible content in the world. Sunstone leverages this content to make sure the students are aware of global phenomenon in management. Technology understanding is also a requirement to be a informed manager in current information age.
