PGDM or MBA

Difference between, how to choose, and other MBA vs PGDM

You may be sometimes confused between choosing MBA or PGDM while deciding your business and management qualification. This article written by experts at Wishusucess.com will clear your doubts.

PGDM or MBA difference

 

So, what is the difference between MBA and PGDM? Simply put, Masters in Business Administration or MBA is a degree course offered by the Universities (both Government and Private) and Colleges affiliated to these Universities. Post Graduate Diploma in Management (PGDM) is a Diploma programme offered by B-schools/Colleges that are recognized by Government of India’s nodal body for technical education - All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE).

IIMs Now Authorised to Award MBA

After passing of IIM Act 2017, the Indian Institutes of Management (IIMs) are also now authorised to conduct MBA programme and award MBA degree. It is however, upto the respective IIM to exercise the option to continue with the Post Graduate Diploma in Management or switch over to MBA degree program. Out of 20 IIMs, some have switched to MBA degree programme while many others are still offering PGPM leading to Post Graduate Diploma (PGDM).

ISB Hyderabad offers PGPM and not MBA as it is neither a University nor is an affiliated college to any other university.

 

How to Choose Between MBA and PGDM?

We want to stress that while deciding between MBA or PGDM, what is most important for you as a student is to understand your personal goals. If you are interested in a corporate job and career, you should choose a B-school/Colleges based on their Ranking, Curriculum and Placements, and NOT by the degree or diploma they offer. Corporate don’t treat MBAs or PGDMs differently. They only want candidates that can perform well on the job. So, curriculum and faculty is most important.

MBA or PGDM: How should you decide

Here is how you can decide between the two:

  • Decide your MBA Goals: If your goal is to join the corporate world, then PGDM or MBA makes no difference. What matters is your learning at a B-school. So faculty, curriculum, industry-integration of a B-school is most important. However, if your goal is to get another academic qualification at low cost, MBA fits the requirement well.
  • Decide your MBA Budget: This is an important consideration since the MBA fee ranges from Rs.25000/- at FMS Delhi to Rs. 21 lakhs at IIM Ahmedabad. No doubt the financial assistance in the form of study loan is available to pursue the MBA programme from all the banks and financial institutions in India, you need to weigh all the pros and cons based on fee structure and your financial ability.

Since it is not possible for everyone to get 99+ in CAT and be a lucky one among 200 candidates to get admission in MBA programme at FMS, Delhi, there are good MBA colleges with low fee structure in the range of 2 to 10 lakhs in Delhi, Mumbai, Pune, Bangalore, Chennai, Ahmedabad where you can pursue your MBA/PGDM. However, before moving ahead, you should also see the Return on Investment that you would get after completing your MBA.

  • Check your Academic Credentials and MBA Entrance Exam Scores: PGDM B-schools can choose from one or many of 6 approved exams: CAT, XAT, CMAT, MAT, GMAT, ATMA. These exams are held in December, January, February every year. State-level MBA Exams like PGCET and TANCET happen later in the year in May, June. If you score well in CAT, XAT etc, you have a good chance to get into good PGDM B-schools. So plan accordingly.
  • Make the right selection: Doing MBA can be your need for future growth, your quest to learn leadership skills or to simply enhance your business and entrepreneurship skills. However, you need to make the right choice and choose the best fit MBA programme.

If you visit the different B-schools’ websites, you will find certain differentiating points for each B-school and its management course. It hardly matters whether you choose one of the top MBA or PGDM colleges, but it matters whether it caters to your needs.

Following are the key parameters to choose the right MBA college:

  1. Ranking of the B-school
  2. Legacy of the B-school
  3. Fee of the B-school
  4. Student-faculty ratio
  5. Placement record
  6. Whether the sought after MBA programme is offered by the B-school
  7. Location of the B-school

 

Top Reasons to choose PGDM

1. Industry oriented course structure

The course structure of PGDM is such that it is more industry-oriented as compared to MBA. Since autonomous institutes offer this course, therefore the curriculum is kept in accordance to the latest developments. Also, PGDM has a more practical approach, whereas, MBA just gives you bookish knowledge.

 

2. Specialization in Any Field

PGDM lets you specialize in your areas of interest. For example, if you choose to go for a specialization in Human Resource Management, then you can choose minor subjects like Marketing/ Finance/IT/Project management which gives you an edge over other candidates.

 

3. Preference for Higher Studies

Many reputed Business schools in India, as well as Abroad, give preference to PGDM students over MBA students. This is due to the practical insight which PGDM offers and MBA which is more theoretical lacks. Hence it gives you an advantage over other students provided it is done from a reputed institute.

 

4. Real-time Business World Experience

In PGDM, students are given immense exposure to the real-time business world through rigorous classroom studies, meetings with top business leaders, management internships and various other similar ways. These techniques help the students to get comfortable with the business environment and makes them job ready.

 

5. Better Placement Offers

Institutes with PGDM courses provide attractive placement offers since they are autonomous in nature. Whereas MBA doesn’t guarantee you a job and you have to struggle on your own for placement.

 

6. Experienced Faculty

In institutes offering PGDM, the teachers are more qualified as they are offered lucrative salary packages whereas in MBA colleges due to the outdated rules of universities, college makes extra efforts to bring the latest corporate learnings.

 

7. Job Oriented Programme

PGDM is more job oriented than MBA which helps one in getting a suitable job right after completing the course. The job opportunities are widened with a PGDM due to the added skills you learn during the course.

 

8. Learning Opportunities

PGDM gives more learning opportunities, Seminars and workshops are arranged. Top industry managers are called as guests for giving speeches and to motivate students. Industries also prefer autonomous institutions for campus recruitment.

 

9. Better Financial Aid

It is easier to get education loans if you study in an AICTE approved business school Like Best B-School in UP they are widely recognized. In private or national banks, students can easily avail loans and complete their studies without any burden.

 

10. Job-Related Skills

Just getting a degree won’t get you a job. What you require are the right skills. PGDM teaches you those skills. It makes your job ready for the leadership and managerial skills you learn. These skills help you in surviving the competitive corporate world with ease.

 

Top Reasons to choose MBA

It appears B-schools have created more confusion for students claiming tall achievements. Good MBA programmes offered by top Government or Private Universities are compatible to the best management courses offered by any B-school in India. For example MBA from FMS Delhi, IIFT, JBIMS, XIMB, NMIMS, SIBM are the most sought after management courses that have commercial orientation and the PGDM offered by other top B-schools and IIMs goes hand in hand with them.

 

Although both MBA and PGDM are similar in outcomes in terms of employment prospective, there are still some differences as shared below:

 

MBA a Degree programme: At the end of an MBA programme, students are conferred with MBA degree instead of a Post Graduate Diploma. You do not need any AIU equivalence certificate to accompany your MBA degree while to prove that you have done MBA an equivalence certificate is needed with PGDM.

MBA has Global acceptability for employment: At the international level, MBA degree is well recognized for global employment opportunities and is acceptable by all the recruiters. Top B-schools in the world offer MBA degree and not PGDM diploma.

MBA degree - requirement for higher studies abroad: If you wish to pursue higher studies like doctoral programme abroad, it is the MBA degree that makes impact and is acceptable. Foreign universities need your MBA degree instead of diploma to offer you admission in Ph.D/Doctoral programme.

MBA backed by University: MBA degrees are awarded by Universities. There is uniformity in education, learning among all the University affiliated colleges. Besides, students do not have to exercise so much caution while opting for MBA course offered by the University or University colleges as they carry all the university related credentials as again the private PGDM colleges who sometimes may not follow the AICTE norms meticulously.

This happens at the time of fee refund as candidates find it difficult to get their paid PGDM fee back. Since the MBA colleges are affiliated to an University and Universities are controlled by University Grants Commission (UGC), the colleges have to abide by the university norms. In addition to UGC approval, these university affiliated colleges can also get AICTE approval for their different courses.

MBA Fee structure is low: University or university affiliated MBA colleges offer MBA at a lower fee than PGDM programmes. This is true as FMS – University of Delhi offers MBA at Rs.25,000/-; JBIMS-University of Mumbai offers MBA at Rs.6 lakhs (Recently revised upwards); PUMBA-Pune University offers MBA at Rs.1.50 lakhs; Bangalore University MBA fee is Rs.54000/-.
Not only this, the same college that offers University MBA and AICTE approved PGDM has a low fee structure for MBA and higher fee structure for PGDM.

Since, mostly government approved universities offer MBA degrees, the MBA fee structure is regulated by them even for the private MBA colleges affiliated to them. These universities offer MBA at a subsidised fee as they receive financial aid and grants from the government but since private universities have to manage on their own they have high fee structure for MBA programme like NMIMS, Symbiosis, Xavier University Bhubaneswar among others.

 

Legacy of MBA: Except the PGP programmes offered by IIMs and few other top B-schools, MBA programmes are much older. For example, FMS - Delhi University is 60 years old; JBIMS Mumbai is also more than 50 years old.
These MBA colleges have created a huge alumni base as compared to newer PGDM colleges. This helps in high placements also. The Parliament has recently passed the IIM Bill which seeks to empower all the IIMs to confer MBA degree instead of PGDM.

 

Choose as per your requirement

If you wish to pursue management course, you need to go by your requirements. In fact, the MBA from lower rung colleges affiliated to Government University may give you a degree but may not give you that much of skills that you can get from a highly ranked PGDM college. On the other hand, MBA from a top Government University college like FMS, JBIMS, could take you to your career heights as against a PGDM from a comparatively low ranked PGDM college.

The decision therefore has to be taken in right perspective and a balance has to be made based on all the parameters discussed above to choose the right programme and right B-school.

Why MBA: Top 10 Reasons Why To Do MBA

Posted by On Filed under MBA

Believe it or not, no other course as compact and short as MBA can make you earn US$ 2.5 million as cumulative median cumulative salary over a period of 20 years.

Why MBA - Best Point for Why MBA
Why MBA - Best Reasons

This is exactly what has been found by GMAC in its Alumni Survey. Doing MBA from a good B-school is a lucrative investment and it will not take more than 4 years to recoup your MBA costs after completion of the course, is the outcome of GMAC.

MBA or PGDM with MBA equivalence is a short Post Graduate programme with high career prospects which no other programme offers. It is of 2 years duration for freshers who have no work experience after bachelor’s degree and of 1 or 1 and a half year duration for those who have work experience of 2 years or more.

 

Top Reasons for Why MBA

Great Learning shapes the future

IIM Ahmedabad alumnus Santosh Desai, CEO, Future Brands, says, “The wonderful thing about the MBA is that one will not just be the manager, but also a creator. I think the most important future challenge would be how you are going to transcend the act of managers. In management institute, you are given the freedom to think and to face the challenges. It will be new because all the things are in you but nothing compels you to think independently as does the good MBA course.”

 

Indian Economy needs more MBAs

According to Asian Development Bank economic growth projections Indian economy would grow at 7.4% leaving China behind which is proposed to have the economic growth rate of 6.5%. The Make in India and start up India would consistently need more skilled and managerial professionals to meet the growing demand in coming years.

When we aspire to make India usher in the era of double digit growth, move on the path of Make in India, it may not come from a few developed urban pockets. It is the task of the MBAs to develop the less developed areas and bring uniformity in the development, as MBAs have the right skills.

 

MBA boosting Alumni’s career

Graduate Management Admission Council’s (GMAC) 2016 Alumni Perspectives Survey Report reveals that all the alumni who were surveyed agree that MBA contributed a lot to boost their career. 81% feel that MBA was instrumental to increase their salary substantially; 80% find that MBA prepared them for leadership roles; 74% find that MBA offered quicker advancement in career and 70% are of the view that doing MBA helped them to improve their network.

 

Top jobs for General Graduates

You can’t become a doctor, engineer or scientist if you are a general graduate in commerce, humanities, arts, computer application and others. But you can become the highly paid manager after completing your MBA degree.

 

Wide choice of career Options

MBA degree gives depth to your resume and helps you to choose career options as per your own perspective and better marketability. You are not the same person after emerging from the Management institute as it shapes your personality and widens your knowledge in different aspects and field.

MBA degree propels you for a managerial job or position. If you are student with a specialization in engineering, chartered accountancy, Company secretary, etc, you need an MBA degree to gain a managerial position.

 

MBAs draw in Crores

Inspite of economic slowdowns round the world, placement records of top B- schools in India come as a motivation for all those who have a dream to pursue MBA.

The highest and average placement in almost all the major MBA programmes offered by the Business schools located in any part of the country including IIMs, FMS, IIFT, SPJIMR, MDI, NITIE, NMIMS, JBIMS, IMI, IMT and many others have gone up by 10 to 40% between a range of Rs. 7 lakhs to 70 lakhs. In fact there is no other 2 year post graduate programme than the MBA which can offer such a good career start even before completing the course.

 

No higher position without MBA

In certain organizations, having an MBA or an advanced degree is practically a requirement for certain positions. It's hard to move up without that credential, no matter how talented you are. Because of the recession's affect on employment, many companies have a wealth of talent to pick from at the moment and some can afford to be choosy in their hiring. Candidates need to score every point possible, and an MBA degree may give that extra edge to you.

 

MBA: Gateway to join the super CEOs list

MBA imbibes in you the necessary knowledge and skill set which you will need in your life, not only in the professional but also in personal walks. MBA courses imbibe in the students the capability and skills to maximize individual and organizational productivity.
