IIM Eligibility

The eligibility criteria for different IIM MDPs vary from program to program and across institutes. IIMs offer a variety of MDPs in regard to industries and functions, targeting different experience levels, so parameters can vary from program to program.
Though the criteria are not very objective, the following are generally considered for eligibility to gain admission to the IIM MDP.

• Educational Qualification: Most of the programs require at least a bachelor's degree from a recognized university/institution. Some may also be particular about the level and nature of the education the participants have accomplished.
• Work experience: A good number of IIM MDPs target professionals with a certain amount of work experience. They could, many times, target the early-career professionals and, sometimes, the mid- and senior-level executives. Work experience could range anywhere between zero to as many years as is deemed necessary in the program.
• Industry and Role: A few MDPs also have industry or role specializations; therefore, rather indirectly, the person needs to be associated with that sector or function to some extent. For example, a program related to health management could expect eligible participants to have had their work in the health field.
