Education 

Ambani attended the Hill Grange High School at Peddar Road, Mumbai, along with his brother and Anand Jain, who later became his close associate.[13] After his secondary schooling, he studied at St. Xavier's College, Mumbai.[14] He then received a BE degree in chemical engineering from the Institute of Chemical Technology.[15][16]

 

Ambani later enrolled for an MBA at Stanford University but withdrew in 1980 to help his father build Reliance, which was still a small but fast-growing enterprise.[15] His father felt that real-life skills were harnessed through experiences and not by sitting in a classroom, so he called his son back to India from Stanford to command a yarn manufacturing project in his company.[11]

Ambani has been quoted as saying that he was influenced by his teachers William F. Sharpe and Man Mohan Sharma because they are "the kind of professors who made you think out of the box."[15]
