Greetings to you. I am proud to say a few words about the MBA Programme in the campus of SDM College of Business Management. Three Institutions are housed in our state of the art campus which includes SDM College of Law, SDM College of Business Management (UG) and now it is going to house SDM Post Graduate Centre for Management Studies and Research (MBA). We have more than 3 decades of experience in running the Business Management Programme and have established our name as one of the Premier Institutions in our country. My experience and wide contact with professional organizations like AIMA, NIPM, IEA, PRSI, etc have widened the scope of Management education in the vicinity. Our sister concerns like SDM College of Law, SDM College of Business Management, SDMIMD, Mysore are a few names that have come forward to share their intellect and goodwill with our MBA programme which is definitely going to help us in building a better brand image. The institute’s worldwide network is certainly striving to help us in a big way in procuring placements for our students within our country and abroad. A sincere attempt is also made to provide the best faculty, guest speakers with good Industrial background & qualified, eminent and competent academicians. With the blessings of Lord Manjunatha Swamy & inspirational guidance of Padmabhushan Dr. D. Veerendra Heggade, we will assure you a value system in academic and professional life.
The best programs can be as good as the faculty who delivers it. The Post Graduate Center for Management Studies and Research philosophy is to recruit and retain the best minds as its core faculty. Guest faculty drawn from the best institutions, corporate houses and consulting firms from all over India will provide us the leading edge.
Post Graduate Center for Management Studies and Research will assist graduating students in securing positions in leading national corporations by leveraging on its vast contacts built during the course of existence and will strive further in increasing the base of corporate alliance for betterment of the institute and the student fraternity.
Bank loans which cover tuition fee and hostel fee are normally available for SDM students. The institute has entered into a Memorandum of understanding with Corporation Bank which will make available educational loan in a hassle free and speedy manner (only guidance will be given by the institute to obtain the loan from Banks).
The institute will arrange for Laptops. The use of Laptops is compulsory and all Laptops are WiFi enabled.
