Curriculum and Pedagogy

Experiential learning is valued at JGBS. Students are engaged in activities that allow them to participate and reflect on their learning process also. We use business case discussions extensively in our classes. In addition, students undertake team projects, poster displays, presentations, library research, simulation exercises, and field research as part of different courses.

The aim is to let the unique strength of each individual flourish. Emphasis is on 1: Learning through discovering, in addition to classroom instruction; 2: Problem-solving, instead of rote learning; and 3: Critical thinking, as opposed to acquiring information gathering. This is the essence of being one’s own teacher, which is emphasized.
