Equal Class
B schools are trying to fix the gender gap in their classrooms
In S. P. Jain Institute of Management & Research's (SPJIMR's) two year full time Post Graduate Diploma in Management (PGDM) programme, women comprise 41 per cent of the class of 2020. The B school's gender diversity has always been exceptional, especially when compared to the global counterparts. In 2015, it was 35 per cent. According to accreditation agency AACSB International's Business School Data Guide, 39 per cent women got management degrees globally in 2017/18.
"We don't do anything special to attract women. The admission process is designed to look at a student holistically, irrespective of his or her academic background, to provide equal opportunity to all. Perhaps that works," says
