Postgraduate Diploma in Business Management Courses of IIM Calcutta

Through upgradation of its earlier 2-Year evening Post Graduate Certificate Programme in General Management (PGCGM) Offered since 1981, IIMC launched this 3-Year Part Time Evening Programme of Post Graduate Diploma in Business Management (PGDBM) in 1994 as one of its major initiatives. The Institute's concern for conducting this Evening Programme in Business Management emerged from the appreciation of a responsibility to offer a quality management education to the young practicing and in-service executives of organizations. This also needs to be seen as the critical and continuing effort by IIMC to professionalize the junior and mid-level management within organizations, one of the major agenda of our time. Through this programme, IIMC facilitates a process through which the students integrate their real-life work experiences with the conceptual and analytical foundations and developments in management disciplines. The focus of this programme is to inculcate among the students such perceptions, knowledge, skills and abilities as would enable them to become effective managers in the modern business - and to assume higher levels of managerial responsibilities.
