PGDM i.e. post graduate diploma in management is provided by institutes that are approved by AICTE (Government of India, All India Council for Technical Education). In most of the cases PGDM is considered to be better than MBA and main reasons are: 1) the PGDM course curriculum is updated yearly whereas in case of MBA the course curriculum is updated after every 5-10 years (depending on the university 2) PGDM is more concerned with the practicalities of the study and MBA is more theory oriented. You should know that companies always prefer practical knowledge over theory. In case of government job also, PGDM is considered equivalent to MBA and are given preference during the interview sessions. I will suggest you to take admission in United world school of business which is one such good PGDM college that we have in the country. Since its inception, this college giving 100% placement to its students and some of the huge multinational companies recruit students from this college. Even if you are keen on doing Government job, this college is providing AICTE approved PGDM. So, you will be able to apply for any kind of Government job after completing the course.

Dear, Symbiosis is a better option compared to ICFAI due to its study material content and short term campus connect programme. As far as job opportunities are concerned, government jobs do not discriminate between regular and distance mode. Only thing is it must be UGC and DEC approved, which both are.
