Post Graduate Program in Business (PGPB) Admissions 2012

Program
The Post Graduate Program in Business (PGPB) is a full-time program that brings to India's business and financial capital the expertise of SDA Bocconi School of Management in delivering top class management education.

The program is designed to build responsible, reliable and effective business leaders. It gives participants the chance to start a successful career or to enhance their work experience by nurturing personal growth and fostering professional development. It offers the experience, the international outlook and the multicultural environment essential for an international career in a global economy.

The combination of theory and practice encourages students to have a creative and problem-solving approach; the international exposure educates them to succeed at a local and global level as well as to have a grasp over cultural intricacies.

The PGPB program draws heavily from the curriculum, research outputs, faculty and experience of SDA Bocconi. It is an innovative mix of lectures, international experiences and connections with the industry:
An intensive academic program – covering all the business management fundamentals in over 1,000 class hours – is delivered by leading Indian, international and Bocconi faculty.
A strong connection with the corporate world is assured by a compulsory internship/summer project, the Corporate Connect sessions (group works with companies), the on-campus Placement Event and the Career Commencement School.
An intensive international exposure is offered by the Campus Abroad program (one month summer program in 5 different destinations in North America/ Asia) and the exchange semester in Bocconi.
