The e-Post Graduate Programme in Management (ePGP) for junior, mid and senior level professionals and entrepreneurs, was launched in January this year and by April the institute had received over 2000 applications from professional for enrollment into the programme.

Given the overwhelming response to the programme and its high fee, the institute has decided to help admission seekers in seeking loan facility.

Candidates meeting the eligibility criteria of minimum graduation score of 50 percent can enroll through GMAT/CAT or the institute's IIM Admission Test (IAT) scores.

With over 800 hours of classroom instruction, the programme will follow two phase curriculum. In the first year, the curriculum will focus on equipping the candidates with latest skills and knowledge on various areas of management. In the second year, the candidates will be offered a range of electives to choose from; helping them in exploring and enhancing their managerial qualities further.

Last date of submitting the application form is April 29, 2017 and the course will commence from June 11, 2017.
