LIBA’s prestigious programme in management leading to the Postgraduate Diploma in Management (PGDM) spans over two years consisting of six terms of approximately three months each.

PGDM programme consists of 135 credits, including the summer project and workshops. The first year of the programme presents students with a comprehensive view of the management discipline and a broad perspective of the corporate environment. All the core courses offered in the first year are required to be taken. A sound foundation is laid for advanced learning in the second year.

The Loyola Institute of Business Administration (LIBA), established in 1979, is one of the India’s premier management institutes in India. Consistently ranked among the best business schools in the country, LIBA represents the unflagging zeal for education and character formation that is a unique characteristic of all Jesuit institutions.

The Institute lays stress on holistic learning with particular emphasis on excellence and ethics. It is proud of its culture rooted in values of mutual respect, integrity, teamwork and social concern.

LIBA has an enviable placement record of 100% from the first batch onward. All our students of the PGDM course are placed in leading corporate houses in India and abroad. This has been possible because of the close connect LIBA has with the corporate sector, in order to understand their requirements and to ensure that students of LIBA are well prepared to meet them.

THE INSTITUTE

In summer, students are expected to do a project dealing with a significant aspect or problem relating to an organisational area. This 8 weeks summer internship provides student an opportunity to relate what they have learnt in classroom to actual practice. In 2017, we have launched Activity Based Learning (ABL). This is modelled on Multidisciplinary Action projects (MAP) program conducted in Ross School of Business, University of Michigan. It is an ambitious and intensive partnership with the company- mutually beneficial collaboration among students, faculty and sponsoring organisation. LIBA arranges for this Summer Internship and / or ABL.

The courses offered in the second year meet the needs for initiating the students into the cutting edge of new techniques and innovations in various fields and for helping them to apply theoretical inputs in practice. In each term, besides required core course, students will have to choose 6 subjects (or electives) from one or more of the following areas of specialization: Marketing, Finance, Human Resource Management, Operations Management, Systems and Business Analytics.

The performance of students at the PGDM programme is continuously evaluated and rigorously monitored in order to motivate them to excel. The grading system synthesizes, on a nine-point scale, the continuous assessment of learning outcomes and reflects a student’s cumulative performance in assignments, reports, project work, field-work, class participation, quizzes, and mid-term and end-term tests.
