USPs of PGDM (DCP)
Shifting the paradigm from the regular PGDM programs, the Dual-Country Program is designed to provide adequate information and skills to the future managers by facilitating and encouraging the application of specific skill-sets in a real-time global work environment. During the program, students spend their 1st year in IMT Dubai and 2nd year (specializations) at IMT Ghaziabad. While the 1st year opens the students to a global outlook, the 2nd year lets them understand the nuances of Indian business culture, which shores up their professional mettle. This exposes the students to the best of both the worlds and thus transforms them into global citizens who are equipped to excel in the most challenging global environments.
The Dual-Country Program offers an elaborate level of international exposure and real life business immersion in the Middle East to the students so that they are able to act strategically both globally as well as locally. The programme adopts innovative methods like role-plays, field experience, company projects, case studies, quizzes, seminars, and industry visits to develop an all-encompassing acumen of the students.
Globalization of MBA Education: Emergent need
By launching the Dual-Country Programme keeping in mind the current globalization of international markets, IMT addresses the emerging need for MBA aspirants to be exposed to global cultures with an inimitable opportunity to immerse in the international market and gain experience.
Speaking about the program and its uniqueness, the Director of IMT Ghaziabad and Academic Mentor to the IMT Group, Dr Bibek Banerjee said “About a decade and a half ago, IMT envisaged that management education would need to blend a breadth of global business perspectives with localized insights. With that in mind the Dubai campus was created by IMT to provide an opportunity for Indian students to experience a learning process that is practically and physically linked to an international business environment. The Dual Country Program (DCP) is a unique program for pursuing a PGDM wherein students spend one year in the Dubai campus and another in Ghaziabad. This program gives the students opportunity to learn from managerial issues and challenges in a multi-cultural business environment. While we all know that the hard and technical skills of management is geography agnostic, the biggest appeal of the DCP is that it prepares students to deal with the softer and contextual elements of running international businesses in a more immersive platform.”
The Program Chairperson Dr Shantanu Roy added “This program is unique and special in terms of its thought and ideology, orientation and the kind of global exposure it gives. Students of the program get first-hand knowledge and practical experience in a global community and interact with the pioneers of, and torch bearers of the corporate world. They also experience a global city like Dubai and get a chance to do internships and get PPOs from the top companies in the world. In fact, one of our highest placed students this year is a DCP student who has got an offer from a leading company in Dubai with a CTC of 24 Lakhs INR per annum.”
IMT Ghaziabad is one of the top ranked business schools with more than 35 years of legacy.
