Hi gaurav
Pgdm is a full time post graduate diploma course of two years whereas mms is a full time masters course of three years. you will encounter similar companies during the placemnets . also the placement process is equivalent across all the courses. regarding the syllabus , you may visut our website and compare for yourself but on a general note the subjects are almost similar across all the courses. the cut offs vary though as we take cat, cmat and xat for pgdm and mh cet for mms . i hope i have answered to your question .
thank you -
Hey Gaurav,
Placements are the same for both PGDM as well as MMS. Syllabus varies and so does the cut off -
PGDM is offered by Somaiya itself while MMS is offered by Mumbai University. Moreover, in the PGDM prpgram, all seats are open without any reservations. The placements are common for both courses. The cutoff for the MMS course can be stated only once the DTE notification is out.
