Is it an autonomous program? Am I eligible for Ph.D, if I pursue PGPM from Gurgaon?

MBA is a degree offered by colleges recognised by University Grant Commission(UGC) and PGDM is a diploma offered by the institutes recognised by All India Council by Technical Education(AICTE). UGC is made for maintenance of standards of university education whereas AICTE is for technical and management education in India. PGPM is a Post Graduate Programme in Management which is according to the current trends of an industry. IBS Gurgaon provide a degree of PGPM which includes both the components of MBA and PGDM. As far as Ph.D. is concerned, the candidates seeking admission for Full Time Ph.D. Program with a post graduate degree in disciplines other than Management (MBA) are required to attend and clear the semester-1 and semester-2 courses of MBA program at IBS Hyderabad with a minimum CGPA of 7.5 as a pre-requisite to pursue Ph.D. in Management. I would also suggest you to inquire about the same from the college as they can provide you with the better solution regarding Ph.D. programme.
