Comprehensive Evaluation System

Evaluation is based on a continuous and versatile system of periodic quizzes, class tests, mid-term tests, assignments, live projects, class participation, and end-of-term written examinations. As a general rule, the end-of-term examination is not given more than 40% weightage in deciding the grade of a course. The grading system is as follows:

Setting A High Standard For Qualification

A minimum standard in academic performance is required to qualify for the Diploma. A minimum CGPA of 4.5 is required for promotion from the first year to the second year and a CGPA of 5 (B average) is required at the end of the second year in order to be awarded the Post Graduate Diploma in Management

Bachelor’s Degree in any discipline from a recognized university with a minimum aggregate of 50% marks for all subjects taken together (45% for SC/ST candidates).
Candidates who are appearing for their final year examination and are awaiting their results may also apply. However, they should have maintained an average of 50% marks in the degree course until then.
They should be completing all their degree examinations before 25th June 2023*. Such candidates are required to produce proof of passing the Degree examination with the minimum required marks of 50%, latest by 30th September 2023*.
Applicants who have un-cleared backlog papers in graduation, are not eligible to apply.
