Both offer you the same career prospects. The only difference is, if you aspire to do your Ph.D. in future, then you will have to do an MBA as PGDM won't make you eligible for it.

Both options are good. If you aim to do your Ph.D. In near future, go for MBA. Rest you can choose PGDM. PGDM is good as the curricular is more industry oriented and updated as compared to MBA. So choice is completely yours.

Both are good. PGDM is a industry oriented programme and specially designed on the basis of the industry needs. MBA is also a good course. So you can take anyone of them.

If being an entrepreneur is your dream, then a PGDM course is the beginning of this adventure. With its rigorous training, the course polishes your personality for growth in the future.

No need of any confusion. MBA and PGDM both are equally appreciated by employer. But only difference is PGDM syllabus are often prepared by college's or universities depending upon the current market requirements and they keep making changes in frequent intervals to keep their students market ready.

PGDM Is more beneficial then MBA as it is more corporate oriented and course has been designed in a tremendous way which is usefull in today's industry. If you want to be among top corporate Czars then join PGDM
