Dear Aspirants, we are very pleased to start this year's thread. PGPX is a dual degree program that is a full partnership between IIMU and the prestigious Krannert School of Management at Purdue University in the United States, one of the world leaders in the Supply Chain Management domain. It is a 15 month's full-time residential program and admission is through the GMAT.
Unlike other one year programs which include a short international component, PGPX offers a full semester of five months at Purdue University where students have access to world-class faculty and facilities and the chance to learn and work with students from all parts of the world.
The 15 month PGPX offers a similar range of electives, demands equal academic rigor and uses the same grading criteria as a two year MBA.
It is designed specifically for students with diverse and extensive work experience - a minimum of 2.5 years. Their experience is integrated into all aspects of the program including course work, projects, and company interactions.
Students graduate with an MS-GSCM degree from Purdue and a Post Graduate Diploma for Executives with a specialization in GSCM from IIM Udaipur.
Please guide on the evaluation process at purdue. What will the evaluation process be like as in will it consist of an interview, a case study etc?Further, are the essays a part of the application process at IIM-U or at Purdue and are these essays similar to the essays given at the Purdue site for the M.S in Global Supply Chain Management course?
I will have around 8.5 years of experience in implementing supply chain planning systems including around 15 months of experience as planner by January 2017. The curriculum of PGPX suits my aspirations. Am I eligible to apply for this course or my experience is on the higher side ?
Other query : since we will be obtaining a USA MS degree, are we eligible to apply for the OPT of 29 months in USA ?
