There is no fixed age limit to pursue the program. My sister did her PGDIE at 26 and she is now working at Amazon with a great CTC. As long as you are passionate about your career it doesn’t matter what your age is. However, before taking any decision, there are some important questions which you should consider:

• Know your future goals (professionally and personally) and how this program would help you to achieve them.
• Know your aspirations and be well aware of the opportunities you would get after completing the program.
• Does the program you chose to be recognized in the market where you want to make your career, as NITIE offers many specialized courses?
• Make sure that the ROI is good.
• Be well prepared if you lose your job and make sure you know how to tackle that situation.

Check some important statistics of PGDM at NITIE:

Consider all the above points before selecting a particular course or college. NITIE is quite famous among recruiters. Their frequent participating companies include Amazon, Flipkart, GlaxoSmithKline, Abbott Healthcare, Amway, Google, Vodafone, Nestle, and many more.

I have a few friends from NITIE so I can give you some information regarding admission to the institute. It accepts GATE scores for PGDIE, PGDMM, and PDPM courses. They shortlist students for GD-PI based on their GATE scores. The required cutoff for GATE varies every year, due to many variables. Here are the cutoff trends for 2021.

The GD-PI round will have 60% weightage for your final selection and the remaining 40% will include your GATE score, academic records, and your work experience if you have any. 

Hence, the GATE cutoff for every branch in NITIE is the same but you will also have to perform very well in your GD/PI round to get admission. 

The PGDIE programs by NITIE Mumbai are offered to candidates based on the score obtained in the GATE Examination. 

The final steps of the admission process include a Group discussion round and a personal interview round. The students are granted admission based on their GATE score, Group discussion round, and personal interview.

The eligibility criteria for the PGDIE course at the institute are as follows:

• Candidates who are BE/B.Tech graduates in a relevant stream with an aggregate score of 60%. (55% is applicable for SC/ST/PwD candidates).
• Candidates enrolled in a course and are in the final year of their program can also apply based on the dates of the admission process. 
• These candidates are required to submit the final year mark sheets and provisional certificates to the concerned authorities within due dates. 
• Candidates are required to have a valid GATE score to apply for the programs. 

If you have a valid GATE score along with the mentioned details, then surely you would be eligible for admission into the PGDIE courses at NITIE Mumbai.
