The Dubai campus is located in the Dubai International Academic City (DIAC) which as been exclusively built for colleges and universities which sets a motivating atmosphere for students to learn and explore, and derive benefits from interactions with the multinational student community comprising of 30 institutions from 13 countries.

S P Jain occupies an entire stand-alone building covering approximately 60,000 square feet, spread over three floors. The campus is built in a contemporary fashion, with hi-tech learning centers, mock trading rooms, an up-do-date library, video conferencing facility, a Reuters terminal and more. The in-campus cafeteria along with the food court of the Academic City offer multinational cuisine to the students.

The sprawling campus set amidst lush greenery and foliage is located close to downtown Singapore. Easily accessible by road, with a bus stop just outside the campus, it is in close proximity to other local schools, medical facilities and hospitals, 24-hour food outlets as well as recreational, shopping and corporate centers.

The various buildings on the campus house classrooms, learning centers, library and several other facilities. A cafeteria offering a variety of Indian and international cuisine caters to the food requirements of the student community. After classes, students have the option to refresh and rejuvenate by exercising at the in-house gym, indulging in various games such as basketball and table tennis or simply take long walks around the campus or on the Mt. Faber Sky Walk located just outside the campus.

We are coming up with a new campus in Sydney, Australia. The city already boasts of a number of renowned universities such as University of Sydney and University of New South Wales. Like the Dubai and Singapore campuses, S P Jain's Sydney campus is being designed to incorporate modern and state-of-the-art facilities to ensure a rich learning experience for the students.

At our Sydney campus, students would be provided with their own space and serenity to study, and at the same time would be provided with an opportunity to get involved in the exciting culture of Sydney to experience the true essence of global learning.
