I had put this question today to my Mentor.. however, i am reposting it here so that it gets answered to the entire audience and all of us can gain from it :
I have 3.5 yrs work ex in the IT industry. I would like to know the difference between PGDIM and PGDITM programmes at NITIE, specially w.r.t the following parameters :
1. flexibility/versatility in terms of choosing electives in each course (for eg, does PGDIM in IT/Systems give a greater list of electives to choose from for finance/mktg or PGDITM)
2. difference between taking PGDIM IT/Systems with finance electives and difference between taking PGDITM with finance electives
3. difference in career paths for PGDIM IT/Systems grads and PGDITM grads
Dude you don't seen to have read the pages properly at
NITIE websitevisit the site...click on PGDIM->core subjects and electives and do the same for PGDIM.
I have no idea what PGDIM in IT/Systems is....:shocked::shocked:
PGDIM is general management (same as PGDM) and within this you may OPT for special elective subjects in Fin/Mktg/Ops/Gen etc.
In case of ITM...the electives for Fin/Mktg etc are included in the core curriculum of PGDIM....
PLEASE take up ITM ONLY when you are genuinely interested in management in IT. No point thinking of getting finance jobs while in ITM....it's for IT specialists and the electives are just for further knowledge.
Bottom line: If you want to make a future in IT...by all means go for ITM...if you want to go for finance then take up PGDIM and then take finance electives.
IMPORTANT: I believe you got a call from ONE of these two courses...so I don't get why you are concerned of the other??? You can't change your course.....
