Who We Are

MYRA School of Business is an innovatively designed business school established in 2012 at Mysore under the aegis of the Mysore Royal Academy (MYRA). The school’s avant-garde and architecturally acclaimed campus, which is built on 8.5 acres of space, was inaugurated on November 4th, 2012, by Padma Bhushan Deepak Parekh, Chairman of HDFC.

MSB faculty is an eclectic mix of academic excellence and industry experience. It features professors with impeccable academic credentials from leading institutions, including IIMs, IITs, JNU, NYU Stern, Texas A&M, University of Texas, Duke, and Harvard University. MSB faculty comprises many professors with sterling track records in the industry and a wealth of real-world experience. In particular, it includes several industry leaders as Professors of Practice. The school’s business education model has been developed in the context of the emerging need for a relook at current business education needs, given the rapidly growing focus on emerging market economies. MSB strives to prepare its students for a world yet to be imagined, to manage markets that are yet to emerge, and to lead decisively in situations that cannot be predicted.

Our Mascot

Phoenix – a mythological bird that is common to many cultures around the world, which is a symbol of renewal, change, and transformation, is MSB’s mascot. The school’s mascot symbolizes the culture that we embrace and nurture. ‘Change is the new school of thought’ is how our ethos is defined, embracing change and preparing leaders for change has remained the school’s ideology.

Why MSB?

MYRA School of Business is a uniquely designed business school that strives to deliver global education at the heart of heritage. We are distinct by design and we embrace these differences as part of our programs. When at MSB, students gain access to several advantages including:

Boutique Business School

As a boutique business school, we are small by design – which translates to smaller cohort sizes and better student-faculty ratios for our students. The smaller cohort also helps us deliver many of our advantages including tailored education and personalized career services, ensuring an individualized learning experience for our students.

Global Curriculum

The curriculum of all programs delivered at MSB has been designed with thoughts and suggestions from academicians from across the world, and from industry experts in the country; to ensure that it meets global standards while addressing the needs of emerging markets. Emphasis is placed on the study of emerging markets and India’s unique position in the global economy. At the same time, our curriculum is carefully designed to expose students to cross-cultural business dynamics, giving them an edge in the rapidly globalizing marketplace.

Stellar Teaching Faculty

All of our courses are handled by renowned professors from the world’s most respected business schools and industry leaders. They conduct cutting-edge research, publish in leading academic journals, and have extensive consulting experience. Most importantly, they are all outstanding teachers with many teaching awards, whom our students will look up to.

Industry Connect

The need to develop courses and curricula that address the real-world problems of businesses motivates us to associate with industry on a regular basis. Our industry connect expands from co-designing of curriculum or expertise; to regular sharing of insights with our stakeholders. Popular events for our students and alumni to engage with the industry include CXO Power Talks, Insight Lecture series, and MSB Developmental dialogues. All these platforms are carefully intertwined into our academics and operations to ensure that any gap in academia and industry is bridged from our campus.

Tailored Education

We believe that a good management education program must offer students the right mix of structured core courses (that lay the foundation) and must have a wide selection of electives (that offer choice) to ensure that the effort invested into the program is rewarded. Our unique model of being a boutique business school helps our students achieve this as it gives them the flexibility to choose courses of their choice and tailor a program that best suits their needs. This is a cornerstone of MSB’s educational model that differentiates the school from any run-off-the-mill management programs.

Personalized Career Services

The focus on smaller cohorts also helps us understand and appreciate individual profiles – making our career services activities personalized to each student’s needs and aspirations. From day one, our career services team invests their time and effort in identifying and documenting these developmental needs, which gives each student individualized attention to their success journey.

Our Campus

The MSB Campus is an internationally-acclaimed masterpiece of design and engineering. It was designed to give students the best environment to study and collaborate with one another.

While it is a radical departure from the traditional business school architecture, it was designed to address the specific needs of management students – fostering an atmosphere that is conducive to learning, collaboration, and networking.

The campus was designed by the award-winning Bangalore firm, Architecture Paradigm, who were inspired by the ensemble of rocks and boulders that dot the Bangalore–Mysore highway. It makes optimum use of space and natural light and has often been referred to as “poetry in concrete.”

The academic architecture resonates with our vision and mission. It is designed to create two worlds – futuristic exterior image, a facade that expresses the aspirations of the institution and all the stakeholders and the interior world is a microcosm of the city, a series of public spaces and quadrangle, drama of light and shades, and a stunningly beautiful library for knowledge sharing and discovery.

The campus features a floating classroom, 4 lecture halls, a 200-seater auditorium, 1 amphitheatre, 1 board room, 14 faculty offices, a 3-level library, 1lounge, an administrative block, a cafeteria, and ample open learning spaces to promote creativity and collaboration.

The MSB campus is a radical departure from the traditional “stuffy classrooms and narrow hallways” model. It encourages students to wonder, reflect, and think. It addresses the specific needs of management students – fostering an atmosphere that is conducive to learning, collaboration, and networking.

It is located in Mysore’s own ‘Silicon Valley’ which also hosts the Infosys Leadership Institute, BEML, L&T, and many others. The location and quality of the campus have made it a sought-after location for international academic conferences and corporate workshops.
