MBA/PGDM

Hi Pallavi,
There are many integral programmes in various universities for MBA. The classes are there on Sundays and Saturdays. As you are from engineering background it is quite easy to crack their entrance exams.

Please go to UGC website www.ugc.ac.in and check the list of institutions recognised for different courses.

Placement (package) varies from year to year depending upon the types of companies visiting the campus, roles offered and several other factors. The average package offered by the companies on campus is 6 lakhs per annum and in general, it's marketing specialization which fetches a higher package.

TQM is a part of project Leadership Management. You can refer universities like IGNOU (IGNOU.AC.in) and Mewar University (mewar.edu.in) for your courses.

If you are doing it through regular education, PGDM is considered equivalent to MBA, the provided college is approved by AICTE. If you are going for distance education, then AIU doesn't accord equivalence to PGDM programs. So go for a proper MBA degree university like IGNOU (IGNOU.ac.in).

Dear Madhu,
With 48% in BA, it is really very difficult to get admission in any college of MBA. You need to score at least 55% in your bachelors to get the right college. Since you have scored, 48% in BA, it's actually college's discretion that if they give you the chance or not (chances are high for distance MBA). It would be better if you ask the college administration directly for this eligibility criteria.

For MBA in Business Economics I would suggest you two colleges, Dept. of finance - Delhi University and Indian Statistical Institute. They are the renowned colleges for these fields. For this you need to give CAT or ISI exam. Since you have 3+ year of working experience, you will surely be preferred.

Dear Charu,
Let me clarify your query in two parts; (1) To get admission in PGDM, you need to submit your Bachelors mark sheet and university certificates. Since you are currently doing B.Ed so it is not possible to take admission in PGDM course from any university, even if it is distance or regular. (2) Doing dual degree from two different universities is very risky. However, there is no offense (if you have submitted valid documents) but is will create an excessive pressure and tension over you. It is very hard to handle two subjects at same time.

Dear Srikant,
The basic eligibility criteria for getting admission in MBA from any college in any course is that 'you have to pass 10+2+3/4 pattern from a recognised board or university.' Second is that you need to clear your 3 (or 4) years of 'graduation' with at least 50% marks. Hence, if you have done BA in paramedical then yes, you can go for MBA in medical service but there is been a doubt in your Diploma (because it is not as equivalent to your BA). More particularly, MBA in medical service is also called as hospital management. So, you can directly ask to college administration.
