What is PGDM/PGDM (Pharma)/PGDM (Biotech)? |
| Post Graduate Diploma Management (PGDM) is a 2 year full time program covered over four semesters and offers students a dual specialization ensuring that they are thoroughly skilled in at least one functional area while having more than a fundamental working knowledge of another. The PGDM course seeks to enhance the students’ learning by offering knowledge-building projects in each semester, while fine-tuning their leadership, communication and inter-personal skills |
| Post Graduate Diploma in Management (Pharma) (PGDM - Pharma) was started in 1997 in collaboration with the Indian Drug Manufactures Association (IDMA). It is a 2 year full time program catering to the needs of the Pharma industry, and offers education on industry specific subjects like Pharmaceutics, Physiology, GMP, Pharma Marketing (including Product Management, Brand Building, New Project Launch and Sales Force Management), IPR, Drug Regulation, International Marketing in addition to General Management.

The program aims at meeting Pharma industry’s demands for professionals who are well equipped to take on the challenges of business in the knowledge economy and developing marketing professionals who have insight into the market place and are aware of global trends. |

Post Graduate Diploma in Management (Biotech) (PGDM – Biotech) is a 2 year full time program covered over four semesters.
