IMDR, the 1st B-School in Pune was established in 1974 as a constituent unit of the DES and is a sister institute of Fergusson College & BMCC.
The Post Graduate Diploma in Management (PGDM) is a two-year full-time program. The program is divided into 4 semesters, each of approximately 16 weeks. The second semester is followed by a 6 month internship in a business organization.
Our dual specialization offering expands students' career options and job opportunities. It also instills knowledge and confidence in them to be leading entrepreneurs.
Our students need to 'Make a Choice' for their major and minor, and select electives as per their preference.

Case studies, learning through stories, Marketing, Economics, Accounts, Modern Human Dilemmas, Finance coupled with cricket and Idli-Vada breaks at Vaishali and Rupali! Nostalgic football matches, attending the Business Schools meets, the Guest lectures and learning from my fellow students and seniors. Thanks to the cutting-edge skills, I got at IMDR."

"Teaching at IMDR is different than what I learned throughout my life. It’s not uni-directional; there is engagement from both the sides in the class and also in solving the case studies where you have to apply your mind to get it solved. Now, that has also become a part of my job as I prepare case studies and use the cases on the projects."
