    Hi, I feel a full time MBA or PGDM is always better. I have heard somewhat about online degrees, but when I researched about it, I came to know that online degrees cant give enough corporate exposure. I would suggest you opt for a regular full-time MBA or PGDM degree from a good B-school. There are many good B-schools in India, but as far as I know, PIBM is really good, I have heard they have good placements and expert faculty members. PIBM had always been technologically ahead. Hence during the pandemic, students learning was continued through PIBMs in-house AI-developed learning management software. It helps in conduction online clas

    In a distance or a part time MBA programme, colleges do not conduct a placement drive. A full time MBA programme gives you immense industry exposure to understand the real corporate world and its challenges. A Full-time MBA programme is definitely better than an online or distance MBA degree. A full time management degree helps you to explore the corporate world through real time classes, internships, industry visits, live projects, corporate interaction with top industry leaders from diverse sectors which is not applicable in case of an online or distance MBA. PIBM IS hosting an MBA/PGDM course specializing in HR, Finance, Marketing,

    In the Distance MBA programme, there is no placement process involved in distance MBA and job search and job change need to be done on your own. In the full-time MBA programme, a placement process is conducted at the end of each final academic year and students have the opportunity to get hired in the best of companies tied-up with the programme.

    No, Part-time MBA or distance MBA programme does conduct and placements drive or inshort does not provides and placement opportunities to the student. Distance or Part-time MBA programme is pursued for the students who are working or want to boost their career by get a MBA degree. But according to my opinion Full time MBA programme is the best option one can go for, as its offers both in class training & learning experience through various experienced faculty members, experts, corporates and the industry exposure through Industrial Visits, Live Projects, Field Visits, Projects, Internships and Corporate Trainings. PIBM is one of the be

    As I have done my MBA as a full-time programme from PIBM and also has witnessed some of my friends pursing their via as a distance programme, I personally have found a lot of difference between the two programs. Many of things like proper interaction with faculty members, experiencing corporate sessions and interactions with the ace of the various companies, personality development by GD/PI, placement trainings before going for an interview, better campus placements, all these factors where missing in the part-time or distance MBA programme. Everyone has their ultimate goal to crack the best placement after pursuing MBA, therefore in t

    As per my opinion, you should go for the Full-time MBA programme. Because the full-time programme helps you to get more knowledge, exposure, placement, and many more. I have done my PGDM from PIBM Pune and they provided the regular courses. PIBM provides the students some benefits who are doing MBA or PGDM are corporate exposure to analyzing various Company's Financial and various Reports analyzing, Perform Ratio Analysis, and Forecast the financial to make Buy/Sell Stock Investments using various tools like Bloomberg, Ace Analyzer, SAP - FICO, Advance Excel, SPSS and many more.

    In this pandemic distance MBA is more or less equivalent to a regular MBA, but in terms of placement regular MBA might give you better opportunities in terms of campus placements.
