About JAIN (Deemed-to-be University)
JAIN (Deemed-to-be University) in Bengaluru grew out of the Sri Bhagawan Mahaveer Jain educational trust and runs its online degrees through JAIN Online. The online range covers the MBA, MCA, M.Com, MA, BBA, BCA and B.Com, each offered with a menu of electives that are priced separately.
Programmes start with a common first-year core and move into the chosen elective in the second year (or later years for bachelor's degrees). Teaching combines live and recorded classes. JAIN's MBA electives include newer areas such as AI for finance and an ACCA-accredited international finance track.
JAIN is accredited by NAAC with an A++ grade, and states that its BBA, MBA, BCA and MCA are AICTE-approved and that its degrees are WES-recognised. Paying the full programme fee upfront earns a 15% discount, and 0% interest EMI is also offered.
