SDMIMD has Student Exchange Programs with the MAYS School of Business, Texas A&M University, USA and Global Management Institute of Shanghai University, China.
Student Exchange Program to foreign shores is advantageous in three ways. First, at a personal level, self-development and awareness leading to enhanced self-confidence and self-esteem, the most noticeable change in returned exchange students. Second, at the education level International learning and knowledge propels students towards acceptance and understanding of an array of different cultural and community perspectives. Third, at the job prospect level, prospective employers in almost every field look favorably upon the experience gained overseas and knowledge obtained of another culture.
