Hello What will be my job prospects after pgdfm from ignou?? Yet to take admission in the course
IGNOU clearly stands out owing to the well-structured course material and the importance of assignments. The faculty who are mentoring IGNOU(School of Management Studies) is top-notch professors from IIMs, IIFT and senior officials from government bodies.
But if you expect an MBA to be equivalent to a regular MBA degree to get a job, I fear that won't be possible. MBA curriculum in most universities in India is very rigid and intensive. This is because a future manager is supposed to perform under pressure so a management student is subjected to that pressure from the very first day during his MBA degree. Therefore through regular case studies, discussions and extensive knowledge sharing in peer group a regular MBA are considered to be of a much higher value than a distance MBA. But regular MBA requires a huge investment in terms of both time and money.
So, if you are already in a well-settled job in which you plan to climb up the ladder to a management position or just to gain insights about the theoretical aspects of management, an MBA from IGNOU will surely help you serve the purpose with minimal investment of both time and money.
