In the second year of a PGDM (Post Graduate Diploma in Management) programme, students have the option to specialise in a particular area by selecting a major. To obtain a major specialization, students are required to earn 14 credits from courses in one specific area. In addition to a major, student can pursue a minor specialisation. To acquire a minor, students need to accumulate 8 credits from a different specialisation area.

The choice of electives that students make during the programme often reflects their future career path and job preferences. This system allows students to tailor their education to align with their career goals while providing flexibility in gaining expertise in more than one area.

The Post Graduate Diploma in Management (PGDM) at IILM is a two-year full-time master’s level programme. Modelled after the structure of leading business schools, it follows a semester system, with a common curriculum in the first year for all students. In the second year, the programme offers a specialised selection of electives that are specifically designed for each course.

The Post Graduate Diploma in Management (PGDM) was launched in 1993 to meet the growing demand for management professionals and to prepare students for a challenging career through a rigorous curriculum. The programme aims to develop students holistically, fostering intellectual, social, physical, and spiritual growth. In addition to traditional business skills, the programme emphasises the importance of developing “Life Skills” that are essential for success in any career and in life more broadly. These skills include effective communication, leadership, problem-solving, critical thinking, teamwork, adaptability, and emotional intelligence. By focusing on both business knowledge and life skills, the programme prepares students not just for employment but for lifelong learning and personal growth.
