ISB Launches ‘PGP YL’ - A 20 Month Post Graduate Programme In Management For Fresh Graduates And Early Career Professionals
India,2024: Renowned for setting new benchmarks in management education since its inception in 2001, the Indian School of Business (ISB), is poised to embark on another groundbreaking path in its mission to groom future leaders for India and the world. ISB has announced the launch of PGP YL - a 20 month Post Graduate Programme in Management for Young Leaders (PGP YL), a full time MBA equivalent residential management programme for high-potential aspirants with up to 2 years of full-time work experience.
Commencing
in mid 2025, ISB’s PGP YL will offer a comprehensive learning experience
through an innovative and cutting-edge curriculum designed as a response to the
rapidly evolving business landscape and technology disruptions. The research
backed PGP YL curriculum will blend foundational business principles with
advanced technology, data, analytics courses and global perspectives to develop
students into innovative problem solvers.
Given
the students' limited work experience, the PGP YL curriculum has been designed
to incorporate significant experiential learning components, including a
Business Design Lab and an Innovation Lab. Additionally, students will be
required to complete a mandatory two-month summer internship, which will
provide them with practical exposure to business environments in various
settings. Students in the PGP YL programme will be
taught by renowned faculty from ISB and other top international B-schools who will
bring their expertise to the classroom.
Speaking about the new PGP YL
programme, Professor Madan Pillutla, Dean, ISB, said, “Since our
inception in 2001, ISB has been imparting world-class management education to
create leaders for India and the world. Our many conversations with industry
leaders and recruiters reveal a need for young professionals who can step
straight into roles that require business acumen alongside deep expertise in
data and technology. In line with these requirements, we have designed the PGP
YL programme for fresh graduates and entry level professionals to transform
them into exceptional problem solvers and innovators at the workplace.”
Students interested in applying
for the PGP YL programme will have to submit a valid GMAT, GRE or CAT score, in
addition to the details of their educational qualifications and work
experience, if any. The admissions process for the PGP YL programme includes a
personal interview based on the students’ academic excellence, application
essays and test score performance. The shortlisted students will then be
interviewed by a panel consisting of leading industry practitioners, academicians,
and ISB alumni in senior positions.
The programme
fee for the academic year 2025-27 is INR 21,65,000 + GST and the accommodation
fee is INR 3,95,000. Scholarships will be awarded to 40-50% of the class based
on merit and merit-cum-need criteria. Merit scholarships may offer up to a 100%
tuition waiver for deserving candidates.
