Hi

Your question number 1 is which is you should choose PGDM or MBA

Before reaching  to any conclusion  i.e which is better  let us see some  key points about the two courses which is your answer to 2nd question:-

-)MBA i.e Master of business administration is a degree course , and being a degree it is  little  more theoretical

-)PGDM is graduate diploma in management i.e it is a diploma course, PGDM is accredited by Association of Indian Universities which makes it equivalent to MBA, it is more practical,  even the most prestigious IIMS offers PGDM. Now, most of the iims have started offering MBA degrees instead of diploma   PGDM  i.e Graduate Diploma in Management  after the passing of IIM Act 2017.

So, there's  not much difference  between  MBA and PGDM , the only thing is that MBA is a degree course while  PGDM is a diploma course , also when it comes to job then there's no difference in the way companies  treat a PGDM and an MBA , even your Career growth is similar for both the courses and it  largely depends upon your performance.

So both MBA and PGDM have more or less equal scope and opportunities , you can go for either  of them , what  matters is the college or the B-school  from which you pursue them , brand value of the college,  its past placement  records, industry exposure provided by the college  etc because your starting package and placement  after completion of the course is mainly dependent on college’s name and brand, not whether it offers MBA or PGDM.

But just to answer  your question,  MBA has little bit edge over PGDM as it has global acceptability for employment,  the Top B-schools in the world offer MBA degree and not PGDM which is diploma. Also , if you want to go further  studies in abroad then foreign universities require MBA degree instead of PGDM diploma to offer you admission in Ph.D or Doctoral programme.

This was your answer to first question
