Executive Postgraduate Programme in Management
(Exec-PGP)

The Programme

The Institute offers this programme since June 2000 for the working executives in India who have the potential to reach higher levels in the hierarchy of the management. The Exec-PG programme provides executives with an opportunity to earn a Postgraduate Diploma in Business Management without interrupting their career. The curriculum is similar to that of the BM programme and it exposes them to a wide range of management theories and practices.

From October 2001, the Institute began offering the Exec-PGP in Dubai in collaboration with the Al Abbas Institute of Technology.

The participants in India spend 18-20 days in the Campus thrice a year to complete the course requirements. They are expected to do additional work as carry-home projects and assignments. The mix of participants, which includes entrepreneurs and executives from various functional areas, provides an enabling environment for learning. The Institute awards the Postgraduate Diploma in Management to the participants who successfully complete all the requirements of this programme.

Academic Programme

The Exec-PGP is organized in 9 terms. Each term spans about three months. Participants' visit to campus may be termed as Campus Visit (CV). The sessions required for the courses are completed during the Campus Visits. Participants are expected to stay on campus for about 18 to 20 days in a term. This period is announced to the participants in advance so that they can arrange for their leave of absence from their respective organizations. During the period of their stay on campus, as the participants need to participate in intensive classroom sessions, they are required to be available full time. During this period there will be no holidays or any other break.
