PGDM expands to Post Graduate Diploma in Management, the confusion starts when you see the term Diploma. Many students have confusion in their mind on PGDM course and it's comparison with MBA. Many students are of the view that it is a Diploma course and not a Degree; you are right to an extent that it is a Diploma. The main reason why postgraduate courses are named as PGDM is because when an Institute is an autonomous body and conducts management courses then such Institutes cannot offer MBA degree.
