With principles related to community, flexibility, and innovation, MDIS has adapted to this new landscape. Covid-19 accelerated a digital transformation in the workforce and the future of society. The MBA, MSc, and online MBA programmes that MDIS offers will equip students with expert knowledge and skill sets that will prepare them for the digitalised world of tomorrow. The Masters Programmes at MDIS are offered in partnerships with universities around the globe to provide students with a global-centric education, which will allow them to build an international network of mentors and peers. MDIS Graduates will be equipped with the right skills to become industry-relevant in a world where jobs will be digitised and digitalised.

With the MDIS campus based in Singapore, international students from India can immerse themselves in the diverse cultures and challenge themselves in a fast-paced environment. International students can enrol in the programme of their choice with a relatively easy enrolment process at MDIS, which also offers scholarships in addition to educational rebates to support international students pursuing higher education opportunities despite their financial challenges.
