The rapid evolution of the Internet, AI and emerging technologies has significantly transformed both the business landscape and educational methodologies. These advancements have played a crucial role in reshaping curriculum development, introducing new modes of interaction, redefining organizational structures, and altering the roles of students in both academic and corporate settings. At I.T.S School of Management, the Post Graduate Diploma in Management (PGDM) is a rigorous, AICTE-approved and NBA accredited two-year program structured across six trimesters. The program is designed to provide students with a strong academic foundation while equipping them with analytical, strategic, and managerial skills essential for effective decision-making in dynamic business environments.
The PGDM program comprises 116 credits, distributed as 107 credits for coursework covering core and elective subjects, 6 credits for the Summer Internship Project that offers hands-on industry exposure, 2 credits for a Minor Project to enhance applied learning, and 1 credit for the Social Immersion Program, which emphasizes community engagement. Additionally, the Business Intelligence Lab is offered as a non-credit course to develop data-driven decision-making skills. A detailed term-wise course structure outlines the credit allocations for each subject and learning module. Specialization courses begin in the third trimester, allowing students to tailor their learning experience based on their career aspirations. They can opt for a Major-Minor Specialization or choose a Dual Specialization format to broaden their expertise. The Summer Internship Program is aligned with the primary area of specialization, ensuring practical exposure and industry alignment. For students pursuing a dual specialization, internship opportunities are available based on their preferred domain. With a well-structured, industry-oriented curriculum and a strong focus on experiential learning, the PGDM program at I.T.S School of Management prepares students to navigate the complexities of the corporate world and emerge as skilled professionals ready to lead in a competitive business environment.
