Thiagarajar School of Management Madurai Answered Questions

PGDM from TSM is good in the sense, it has acquired accreditation like AICTE, NBA, AIU and is equivalent to MBA. The placements are good, the companies visiting are also good, the average salary is around 5 lakhs. If possible, you can go to their official FB page to get info on students placed in various companies. Placement percentage is around 95.

Generally, both are same. Since institutions like TSM, PSG are autonomous, they can easily update their MBA syllabus too without much problems. Hence, it depends upon you, whether you are looking for a degree or diploma. Regarding TSM, I think there might be a slight advantage if you go with their PGDM since it is recognized as equivalent to MBA by AIU and preference will be given to PGDM as it is their flagship programme. Fee is also high for PGDM, while when it comes to placement both MBA and PGDM average is around Rs 5 lakh. So, it depends on you. Nowadays, it is better to choose marketing as one of your specialization.
