Xavier Institute of Management Bhubaneswar, Orissa


Postgraduate Diploma in Management Admission 2011

This is the flagship programme of the Institute, comparable to the MBA level programmes of premier business schools in India and abroad. While the programme is based on the standard model of management education as practised by our peers, our programme is distinguished by its rigour and discipline. The Institute has created an environment where the faculty demand and get the extra work and students demand the latest from the faculty. The programme updates its syllabus regularly to reflect the changes and challenges in business environment.

Objectives : The two-year programme is designed to prepare competent men and women for careers in management in the corporate sector and in public systems. The courses impart a generalist perspective, which will enable students to view the entirety of an organisation as well as its place in a larger environment. The students are also trained in technical and functional business skills such as accounting, finance, marketing and production; and are helped to develop their analytical and integrative skills so that they can define problems with clarity and formulate alternative solutions for implementation. Besides professional expertise our emphasis is on training students for collaboration and teamwork through the development of human relation skills, and of attitudes which elicit a commitment to excellence along with awareness of their social and ethical responsibility. It is hoped that the future manager will become a powerful force for socio-economic change and progress.

Eligibility: The minimum requirement for admission to the Programme is a three-year Bachelor’s degree (or equivalent) in any discipline from a recognised university. Candidates who expect to complete the final part of their degree examinations by June 15, 2011, can also apply. Offers of admission to such candidates, if made, will be provisional and will be automatically cancelled in the event of their failing to complete all the requirements for obtaining the degree before June 15.
