Message from the Chairperson

DCSMAT reiterates its promise to develop business leaders who can drive meaningful change within a business. Recent crises have emphasised the need for responsible and responsive business leaders who create value for their businesses and their communities. DCSMAT students are well equipped to take on these leadership roles as they live and learn in a close-knit community where the students interact daily with their faculty, mentors and peers with continuous access to learning resources. This environment promotes collective learning and a deeper understanding of the contexts of business decision-making.

The DCSMAT Governing Council is proud of the unique opportunities in business education that DCSMAT provides to our students. DCSMAT will continue to pursue excellence in everything it does as the school strives to realize its mission and vision.
