Is PGDM course available in the HR department at IPS Business School? How is it compared to an MBA?

Hi Priyanka Though both MBA and PGDM are viewed as equivalent during recruitment. The influencing factor for PGDM is mainly the institute offering it. Also, while PGDM courses might be industry-oriented, it faces serious roadblocks while applying to pursue higher education or jobs overseas. This being the main reason for the established IIMs moving towards MBA and abandoning the PGDM/PGPM garb, Even though there might be a few differences in the way these courses MBA and PGDM are designed, the objective is ultimately to make the student ready for Industry. A WORD OF CAUTION: But caution needs to be maintained while getting admission to PGDM courses. Since the awarding institutes are autonomous, to check their courses accreditation becomes of utmost importance, without which there can be severe cases of fraud. To conclude, keeping other dimensions constant, a careful analysis will tilt the favour in MBAs scale as: 1. 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. 2. 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. 3. 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. 4. 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 against 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 a University and Universities are controlled by University Grants Commission (UGC), the colleges have to abide by the university norm

<p>Not sure about IPS Business School’s PGDM in HR or how it stacks up against an MBA, but on the finance side there’s something solid: the IIM SKILLS Financial Modeling Master Course. It’s job‑centric with a structured curriculum, one‑on‑one mentorship, a guaranteed 2‑month internship, prep support for globally recognized certifications, lifetime LMS access, and strong placement assistance—making it a practical add‑on while deciding between PGDM and MBA paths.</p>

PGDM gives you skills & updated course, but the fees you pay for that is too high, you can get the same study material and learn in MBA from IPS BUSINESS SCHOOL JAIPUR in very genuine fees INR 2,25,000 only by doing MBA from this college. by providing ON JOB TRAINING this helps to learn actual corporate culture in which you get an opportunity to develop your skills. SAP training advance excels and so many technical skills which PGDM can not provides. this college is really different methodology in comparison to other colleges having the highest placement with the big MBA BBA batch in JAIPUR.
