Hi
Mba is a post grad degree whereas pgdm is a diploma. Mba are hence regulated by UGC where the syllabus may change after years whereas pgdm are industry driven. Anything that is required by the industries is updated immediately by the institutes.
IIMs provide pgdm and not mba and the placements are evident of what to pursue.

PGDM or post graduate Diploma in management is offered by autonomous institutions as they cannot offer MBA. Today, most of the students are in a confusion whether to opt for an MBA or a PGDM. Both are different but PGDM has got a couple of benefits as compared to MBA.
While choosing an institute for doing PGDM, one should make sure that he chooses an institute with a good brand name. MIME is one such institute where the brand name talks. MIME (Mats Institute of Management and Entrepreneurship) is the first B-School of JGI Group.
