The final placements for both the courses are done together.
The course structure varies to a large extent with more subjects for PGDM and less for MMS and updated content for PGDM. As MMS is a university course, it gets updated only once in 3-5 years.
The fee for PGDM goes up to 7 7.5 lakhs for 2 years and 4 lakhs for MMS.
