Question 2

How do I afford IPM IIM Rohtak fees?

Accepted Answer

Every IIM is considered an Institute of National Importance and its students are therefore offered excellent educational loans without any collateral and very low-interest rates.

Moreover, a scheme in SBI - SBI Scholar Loan, offers a collateral-free loan of about 2,000,000 Rupees. Apart from this many banks readily offer loans as soon as you enter the PGP program at an IIM. This is because they are sure of the credibility of these institutes and have no doubts regarding their students. They know they are investing in people who will be paying them back tenfold. You can easily avail this benefit of being a part of a reputed institute and IIMs brand value.

High credibility of the IIM brand.
These courses are specifically tailored as per the industry needs.
These courses provide quality training in a specific area.

Thus, a certificate course from IIM Rohtak will be highly beneficial for you.

Question 4

How good is the EFPM program from IIM Rohtak?

Accepted Answer

EFPM is an executive doctoral program of IIM Rohtak. It is suitable for people who are interested in conducting research in the field of Management.

Some things to know about this program are

The faculty is young in some areas with very less experience.
This is not a degree certification but just a title of Fellow of IIM-Rohtak as per the new IIM Act.
You will face many administrative challenges.
All the pedagogy is digital. Be it books, cases, or even lectures. This is not very helpful for people who lack technical skills.

So before finally opting for the course make sure you keep these points in mind.

Question 5

How effective is the HR analytics course from IIM Rohtak for a fresher?

Accepted Answer

My cousin recently completed the HR Analytics course from IIM Rohtak. He claims that the curriculum and the pedagogy are amazing and its highlight was the final visit to the campus prior to the completion of the course.

This course is suitable if

If you already are working somewhere and have enough experience
If you have completed your regular studies and are just looking for a program to advance your career

This course is not suitable if

You have enough time and potential for higher studies
You are not planning to work in the near future

In either case, it’s better if you go for a regular program than a part-time correspondence course.

Question 6

Which certification course is the best for project management, IIM Rohtak or Six Sigma Green Belt from Indian Statistical Institute?

Accepted Answer

Both the certification courses PMP and SSGB fall under the Operations domain yet are very different in reality.

PMP: This course facilitates handling and delivering projects efficiently and quickly. If you are interested in Project Management, the best option is the Project Management Professional (PMP) certification which is affiliated with Project Management Institute, PMI, USA. It

also provides PDUs.

SSBM: This course facilitates proper optimization of business processes, minimizing waste and time wastage. If you are interested in the Six Sigma Green Belt (SSGB), then Indian Statistical Institute (ISI) Kolkata is the best option available. Some even think ISI Pune is good yet I will recommend you to go for Kolkata itself.

Question 7

How do companies perceive these IIM Rohtak EPGPX courses like?

Accepted Answer

Even though all IIMs have converted their PGP and EPGP programs into MBA degrees, IIM Rohtak continues to offer Post Graduate Diplomas. Companies do not regard this program as an MBA qualification. It is regarded as a Diploma course from IIM Rohtak, a step down from the two-year EPGP or PGP. Candidates who complete this course are not eligible to pursue a Ph.D., FPM (or even EFPM) from any IIM (including IIM Rohtak).

Fees for a one-year online program are also extremely high. All IIM MBA programs are now GST-free, but IIM Rohtak continues to charge fees that are "inclusive of taxes" even though there aren't any (if the course is truly an EPGP/PGP). Businesses would place a higher value on two-year PGP or EPGP programs, like the one offered by IIM Kozhikode.

Question 8

Which would be better? NMIMS Mumbai BBA or IIM Rohtak IPM (exit after 3rd year with a BBA degree)?

Accepted Answer

IIM Rohtak is better if you want to join IPM there and graduate with a BBA after three years.

A BBA from IIM Rohtak is unquestionably more valuable than a BBA from NMIMS, Mumbai because the course curriculum and pedagogy are superior at IIMs, which use a trimester system rather than the traditional semester system used at NMIMS.

The placements will be similar between the two. However, NMIMS wins because, with only a BBA, you'd have to apply off-campus if you wanted to be placed at IIM Rohtak, as there are no placements for BBA students.

Keeping everything in mind, you should prioritize IIM Rohtak over NMIMS because of the IIM brand and because it is a less expensive option. At the end of the day, you still have the option of pursuing an MBA at IIM Rohtak, which you do not have at NMIMS, and CAT can be quite unpredictable and difficult.

Question 9

How is the Post Graduate Program In Management (ePGPx) with IIM Rohtak?

Accepted Answer

ePGPX and PGPX are extremely difficult-to-use programs. Most top business schools have experimented with the format, with mixed results. Not everything has gone well for them. The following variables are dependent on the success of the PGPX and ePGPX formats:

The minimum number of years in business school is ten. ISB Hyderabad is an exception because they have only focused on the PGPX format of the program since its inception.
A very strong alum base thus supports placements because placements in these programs are typically lateral in nature.
A very strong faculty base with international or very rich corporate exposure to support the program.
A rich and varied corporate immersion program to aid in the successful integration of the program's participants and sponsors (SP JAIN does well here).
Then, to top it all off, a robust infrastructure.

For the aforementioned program, you can enroll in any institution that you believe meets the criteria above.
