How does the PGP in Entrepreneurship and Innovation differ from an MBA program?

EIMR’s PGP in Entrepreneurship and Innovation is a 12 month course – a mix of interactive founder/CXO led sessions, case studies and activities, both on campus and outside. There are no textbooks or memorizing to answer questions at examinations, distinguishing it from conventional academic models. You will be coached, mentored and provided a networking platform. Unlike an MBA program, that prepares and assists you in job placements, the PGP in Entrepreneurship and Innovation supports you from idea generation to commercializing your idea.

How are learning sessions conducted at EIMR?

EIMR learning sessions are led by founders and CXOs, emphasizing best practices through discussions around real-world case studies.

Participants have the opportunity to network with like-minded peers as well as founders and CXOs. EIMR’s collaborative environment, designed like a co-working space, encourages networking and may even lead to potential co-founder connections.

How is the EIMR course different from online courses?

Unlike with online courses, the EIMR program is not just about knowledge acquisition but application along with demonstration of required skills and behaviours. Founders and CXOs who facilitate sessions, share real-world best practices, providing a unique learning experience. Additionally, our course includes personalized support and mentorship, a feature often lacking in online courses, contributing to a more comprehensive and impactful learning journey. You experience simulations and work on applying the learning to your idea(s) at every phase of the program.

Do you have extracurricular activities?

We have those planned as part of the course.

Is there a hostel facility at EIMR?
