- It provides an opportunity for experiences professionals to obtain a master’s degree in Business.
- Executive MBA (EMBA) students are required to complete their degrees in two years or less.
- To ensure optimum benefits to participants of executive MBA and the sponsoring organisations, class size and class structure facilitate close interaction between faculty and participants
- Programme costs are modest in comparison to the benefits yielded. In the majority of cases, their employers sponsor students fully, or in part.
- Courses offered in an Executive MBA programme are normally the same as those taught in traditional MBA programs – accounting, finance, statistics, management, marketing and information systems. However, Executive MBA courses are enhanced by the extensive professional experience of the participants and are uniquely structured to teach a maximum amount of course material in an accelerated timetable. In addition, senior faculty experienced in teaching and consulting are employed as principal instructors. Once all coursework is satisfactorily completed, a Master of Business Administration ( MBA ) degree or equivalent is awarded.
- A number of factors are considered in selecting candidates for an Executive MBA programme. In most cases, each applicant is evaluated on his or her own professional performance, academic records, GMAT scores, professional recommendations, and a demonstrated ability to accomplish graduate-level business coursework. Most Executive MBA students enter a programme with ten or more years of professional and/or managerial experience. An undergraduate degree is generally required, though it need not be a degree in business. Evaluation of students for admission to an Executive MBA programme is a very individualised process. While test scores, grade point averages and other objective criteria are all considered, a prospective student’s background, work experience, career goals, desire to succeed and numerous other factors are considered in making an admission decision.
- Over the course of the programme, at least 15-20 hours each week should be allotted for some combination of classroom work, computer and research efforts, and course assignments. Added to the already heavy demands of a business career, the time involved in pursuing an MBA is considerable and requires a high level of motivation and commitment. The burden is eased by the support of other students and by the assistance of the Executive MBA programme staff.

MBA or BBA Degree from IIPM
Do not even think about taking admission in IIPM MBA or BBA
No introduction needed for BBA or MBA programme offered by IIPM .Leading newspaper like Times of India, Hindustan times are regularly getting its full page ads asking student to "dare to dream beyond the IIMs". It claims that it has the highest international placement record in India. Some sources said Arindam, the dean of IIPM could not even pass graduation exams at first attempt. A web page of the list on www.indiabschools.com , a research agency website which compiled the list for Outlook top B- schools in India will tell us - "IIPM has been removed from ranking as we received serious complaints about the veracity of information given by them."
Some truth about IIPM
Only 50% of the students got placed in companies through the college.
Mostly jobs are of Direct Selling Agents.
Very few companies come for campus placements.
MBA degree given by IIPM not recognized by any of the university in the world!
There is no free laptop & free study tour. You have to pay for them in your fees.
NONE of IIPM MBA Student have attended lecturers by professors from foreign universities
MBA moving the World
Nobody can regret the truth that MBa are running our world.Top most salaried person in the world are MBA.The popularity of MBa is such that a person from any profession whether doctor,engineer etc wants to do MBA to get more in the market.MBa is all about Skills.Mba is not burdened by books like other courses, it is a fully practical course.Different Institutes like IIM ,Fms have their own curriculum for MBA.Many extracurricular activities are the part of MBA which one needs to do as compulsory part of MBA course.Im leads the INdia b school ranking every year because of the maximum exposure of the market given to students.IIM students can easily get job anywhere in the world just because of its practical knowldege.Bookish knowledge just tells about the concepts.It hardly gives us the knowldege when one should apply that concept.Different people have different approaches to the situation.IN the course , emphasise is on practical than theortical, thats why every yeah IIM MBA are getting more & more percentage of salary as compared to the last year.
The highest foreign salary offered to any management student in INDIA to an IIMCian is - US$ 250,000. This offer was made to two students by a leading New York investment bank . The previous record of US$ 221,000 also belonged to IIMC.

One Year MBA programmes in INDIA
It's interesting how one’s whole perspective can change within a short period of time. As a career changer, I had always believed that a two year MBA would always be a better option for me. After an in depth research I decided to take a better look at one year MBA programs. It's about the 96% of the material taught in the conventional two year program compressed in a shorter time frame. Moreover, as it turns out, the timeframe is not that much shorter as the two year programs would like you to think. Typical two year program is 16 months with extended holidays and Fridays off in a lot of cases. I've heard number of students from different programs tell me that it's actually quite relaxing towards the end of their two year programs. So one year programs are quite a norm in Europe and are slowly getting approvals around the globe. With one year programs at ISB, IIMs, S.P.Jain etc., more and more institutes are looking to exploit this crack in the newly developing mindset. The debate about ‘one-year MBA vs. two-year MBA’ will keep raging on. From “let’s learn it fast, save money, and get down to business” to “let’s take it slow, learn well and make friends,” one hears all kinds of voices. In the end, everyone would agree that comparison between one-year MBA programs and two-year MBA programs is pointless; it all depends on individual profile, time and money one can spare and, most importantly, the career path one wants to take post MBA. If you’re an MBA aspirant wondering whether one-year MBA would be more suitable for you, go through these points regarding one-year MBA:
· ADVANTAGES
□ The first obvious advantage of a one-year MBA is the time that you save through one-year MBA. Saving one year means one year more of employment. Many a times your present company is willing to give you a leave of absence for one year and partially or fully fund your studies. Companies are reluctant to make that kind of commitment for two years.
□ The second obvious advantage is that you pay less fees, spend less on living expenses and lose less in terms of salary that you forgo during the time that you’re a student. For example, if you were to get admitted to Harvard or Wharton, you would spend approximately US$71 000 or $80 000 for your tuition fees alone. In sharp contrast, if you were admitted to INSEAD, IMD or IE, you would spend $54 500, $43 000 or $45 500, respectively. This may not be true for India where IIM-A fees for one-year executive MBA is nearly 8 lacs and for two-year MBA is 3-4 lacs.
□ The curricula of most one-year MBA programs are not much different from that of the two-year MBA programs so you do not lose in terms of studies. It also means that a one-year program is highly intensive.
□ It is highly suited to those who have already reached the mid management level and are planning to join the same career post MBA. These are people who want to join the work-wagon back as soon as possible and reach the higher level of hierarchy through their MBA degree.
· DISADVANTAGES
□ Two-year MBA allows you more time for internship and network with the corporations which can land you into good jobs very often. The pace of one-year MBA does not allow time for internship. Internship into a new career is important for career changers who do not have a formal business education.
□ Two-year MBA allows you time to network with companies and your own classmates. You get more time to use your business school as a base for networking. The bonding that you form with your classmates is tremendous and serves as a lifelong network in your profession.
□ The assistance given by the business school in career development is much more in two-year MBA than in one-year MBA.
□ Two-year MBA gives you time to enhance your softer skills. You do not find this time in one-year MBA. You can associate with clubs and societies in your business school or network with your professors. You can also join language courses and become fluent in one more language in two years. These softer skills can go a long way in helping you in your career.
□ For career changers and people coming from non business background, two-year MBA is better. The longer one studies the subject the better he understands it.
As long as you understand all the facts and are able to weigh them according to your situation you will be able to make a right choice.
