  1. 5 Myths About PGDM Courses You Should Stop Believing A postgraduate diploma in management is often compared to an MBA. Many students believe several things. They are simply not true. These myths create confusion and stop students from exploring their career path. Let us break down the most common myths about PGDM courses. Myth 1: PGDM is not equal to an MBA This is the most common myth. People think PGDM is less than an MBA. That is not true. PGDM stands for Post Graduate Diploma in Management. Autonomous institutes approved by AICTE offer it. Universities offer an MBA. A good PGDM course is just as strong as an MBA. It follows industry trends and updates the curriculum faster than many MBA programs. PGDM focuses more on practical learning and real-world projects. Myth 2: PGDM courses are only for business students Many believe PGDM is only for commerce or BBA graduates. This is not true. Students from all streams can apply. Engineers, science grads, and even arts students join PGDM programs. What matters is your interest in management and your career goals. Business knowledge is taught from the basics. The course helps students build core skills regardless of their background. Myth 3: PGDM has no value because it is a diploma Some people think the word “diploma” means less value. This is false. PGDM courses are full-time and two years long. The AICTE approves them and follows the same standards as MBA programs. Many top B-schools in India offer diplomas and not degrees. Employers do not care about the name. They look at the skills, knowledge, and exposure you bring. Myth 4: PGDM courses don’t offer good placements This is not true at all. Many PGDM colleges have strong industry ties. They offer internships and final placements with top recruiters. Companies like Deloitte, EY, HDFC, Infosys, and KPMG hire PGDM graduates every year. Some colleges have even reported high salary packages. SIESSBS, for example, had the highest CTC of 26 LPA last year. Good PGDM colleges offer: ● Summer internships

  2. ● Live industry projects ● Pre-placement offers ● Job profiles in marketing, finance, HR, and more Myth 5: PGDM is not worth the money Some students feel PGDM is expensive. But the ROI makes it worth it. PGDM prepares you for leadership roles and business thinking. It helps you grow faster in your career. Many students recover their fees within a year of placement. Also, many colleges offer value-added certifications like: ● Power BI and Tableau ● Advanced Excel ● Digital Marketing ● Finance certifications from NISM These extras help you stand out in the job market. Final Thoughts A PGDM is not just a backup option. It is a smart career move. Don’t let myths hold you back. Do your research. Choose the right college. Focus on skills and learning. A good PGDM course can change your career path and open new doors. Check your PGDM course eligibility and get admission to the best college for you!
