Dean’s Desk
Dear Recruiters,
Greetings from S.P. Jain Institute of Management & Research!
We at SPJIMR focus on developing a mind set for systematic thinking and providing socially
responsive attitude in education for management practices. Bearing this in mind we have
successfully developed PGPM, full time one year program for experienced professionals.
The PGPM program is for participants who are at their mid career level and would leverage
the opportunity by being a part of the mission of SPJIMR. The program gives the
opportunity to customize their studies in core functions of management. Rigorous academic
curriculum, customization, unique pedagogy, industry interactions are the pillars of PGPM
and these pillars strengthen participants for the challenges in the corporate world.
We have introduced Finance and Marketing specialisation this year along with already existing
Operations and Information Management specialisation. The course caters to specific
industry requirements as it combines domain focus expertise with general management
perspective. Domain specialisation and role customization gives participants a combination
of holistic and integrated approach towards management and leadership.
We transform participants into future leaders with the mission and vision to be a net
contributor to the society at large. We create and nurture value based growth in the
participants with our innovative pedagogy approaches such as Development of Corporate
Citizenship and Application of Learning Program. We not only create good administrative
managers but also focus on various areas of personality development of participants. This
helps the participant to develop into a versatile individual, who has the right mix of
knowledge, skill and attitude.
The class of 2010 is a batch of thoughtful and responsible individuals who share with them
the mission of SPJIMR of 'Influencing practice' and 'Promoting Value Based Growth'.
We are looking forward to a continued positive response from the business community to our
programmes and plans as in the past.
Dr. M. L. Shrikant
(DBA Harvard)
Hon. Dean
Our Mission
In all our endeavours, we emphasize (i) attitudes and skills as much as knowledge,
(ii) indigenous learner-centric pedagogy, and (iii) global best practices. Our
attempt is to synthesize the apparent contradictions between western efficiency
and eastern ethos, and competition and collaboration. We believe this could be a
global model one day.
One of the visible changes taking place in the MBA education across the world
is the growing popularity of the one year post graduate programme with a
global outlook. With economy getting back on the growth track, there is a
growing need for suitable people for Senior Managerial positions. SPJIMR in
line with its mission of promoting value based growth has designed the
PGPM programme, which is a 11 month intensive residential programme, to
meet this demand.
SPJIMR identifies potential managers with more than 5 years experience,
provide value addition in terms of functional expertise, entrepreneurial
acumen, service orientation and general management perspective so that they
are better equipped to take leadership roles.
We are confident that corporates will find good number of promising
participants from PGPM 2009-2010 batch, to take Senior Management
positions and contribute to the organization and society.
