Does a part-time or distance (online) MBA programme provide effective corporate exposure and internships as compared to a full-time MBA?

In distance MBA, there is no industrial or field visit involved in Distance MBA so the learning is restricted in the terms of exposure. But in full-time MBA, Industrial visits, factory visits, field visits, internships, live projects are an important part of a full-time MBA programme and are part of the curriculum. If you are looking for pursuing a full-time MBA you can join PIBM Pune. As being an alumni of PIBM Pune I would like to share my experience with PIBM Pune. I have done PGDM in Marketing.

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 classes, real-time feedback from the faculty members, online assessment, even online internships, and placements.
