Remarks

It's a great place to study. A little far from the main city of Chennai but you get everything on the campus so it's OK. The food is also very good. Course is bit hectic but it's worth every penny.

Course Curriculum Overview

4.5

Being a one year course, the curriculum is quite rigourous. There are total 7 terms, 3 with core subjects and 4 with elective subjects. Whatever you cover in first year of two year pgdm, you'll cover here in first 3 terms. The course is hectic, so you need to be mentally prepared. But it's worth it.

Internships Opportunities

No. Its a one year course and criteria for admission is minimum 2 years of work experience hence internships are not required as every one has worked before. For 2 year PGDM programme, 2 month internship is mandatory.

Placement Experience

4.5

For last batch, avg package was Rs 13.1 Lpa. Hopefully for the current batch it'll further go up as it did for previous batches. Placement report is available on the website. Majority of the companies come with a profile of consulting.

Badminton leagues We have basketball, table tennis and football leagues upcoming. We are also going to have a huge symposium very soon along with a cultural event.

Fee Structure And Facilities

Fee for Chennai campus is Rs 19 lacs. Its more or less same in almost all colleges in this category. It's bit expensive but it's feasible as more or less you'll be spending the same money. Here you also get to save your one year.

Alumni network is great and it's widespread. We have a lot of people working in different different industries. Batch Suze is 400, so you also get a great opportunity to network amongst your batchmates as well.

Thiagarajar School of Management - [TSM], Post Graduate Diploma in Management [PGDM]
Reviewed on Mar 1, 2020

Admission:

Thiagarajar School of Management being one of the premier institutes in South India and PGDM being its Flagship Program, I had no hesitation in choosing Tsm. The high advantage of PGDM is that you will be involved with a lot of practical sessions rather than classroom learning. Moreover, PGDM is offered only by institutes recognized by All India Council for Technical Education(AICTE) and TSM has been also awarded NBA and NAAC Accreditation. Pgdm is where you can build your soft skills and the curriculum is flexible and does not have to follow university standards and also can be changed by the institutes according to the industry requirements. For admission, You need to take up entrance tests like MAT.CAT,XAT,CMAT and the candidate must have 3 years of bachelor's degree from a recognized university by the UGC. Candidates can apply for admission once the dates are released and the shortlisted candidates need to attend the GD followed by the PI. Candidates from Tamil Nadu can take up the state level entrance examination TANCET and students can apply for counseling and selected candidates are exempted from the GD/PI process and can directly take up admission.
