The MBA plus PGPM at GIBS ensures a dynamic senior management career

While thousands of management graduates pass out from hundreds of institutions across India each year, not many of them are truly worthy of being called successful business managers. Several management courses at all levels are available like the BBA, BCom, and the dual course that combines degrees. Diploma and certificate courses that are of short durations like a year or six months are also available. Working people could opt for courses during weekends or online. Three-year graduation courses from reputed institutes like GIBS would be valuable to commence a management career and probably campus placements provide a powerful beginning. Yet most youngsters amidst tight competition wish to pursue master’s courses to get a better hold on the profession. Though the accumulation of degrees is not a good idea and could become a waste of time and money, the master’s degree could often provide that needed passport to success.

The best bet would be the MBA plus PGPM course conducted by the Global Institute of Business Studies in Bangalore to jump-start a confident career path in business management with absolute certainty of success. Most graduates aim for some years of work experience before joining the MBA which brings better chances of success. It is business management rather than any other field that ensures the fastest ROI and fast promotions.

 

Specializations offered with the MBA

While Marketing, Finance, and Human Resource Management are the specializations offered, students may opt for additional subjects for specialized study. They are International Business, Information Systems, Tourism & Travel Management, Healthcare Management, Small Business Management & Entrepreneurship, Retailing & Supply Chain Management, and Banking & Insurance.

Success in management requires passion and dedication. A single dream or particular interest that may have developed from a hobby would be sufficient to spell lifelong success. Taking up the challenge and thinking on a global scale would ensure that success will come in due course of time. Those who cannot afford the fees may opt for educational loans that can be paid back after they get gainfully employed and that is quite certain after a degree like MBA.

What qualities of the GIBS study and training culture set it apart?
GIBS will not take you for a ride as some institutions do, organizations that are fonder of money making rather than offering authentic education and genuine placements. GIBS is soundly placed in terms of corporate connections that ensure the best placements. The dream course of four semesters usually has a happy ending with a lucrative work assignment with one of the top-notch companies that may result in a lifetime of successful work.
