Fresh graduates often confuse PGDM with MBA, thinking the latter is more better in every means. Both the courses help in shaping one’s career and obtaining a bigger salary package but with the amount of differences between them, it is essential to clear the doubts.

MBA (Masters in Business Administration) is simply a degree course offered by various Universities and Institutes whereas, PGDM (Post Graduate Diploma in Management) is a diploma program offered by B-Schools that are recognised by AICTE. Additionally, PGDM course is more industry-oriented and does not have to follow the guidelines laid by the University. On the other hand, MBA course is more focused on theoretical aspects and follows a fixed curriculum which is strictly based on the university guidelines.
