Difference between MBA and PGDBA: Both programs are equivalent to each other with some differences like:
1. An MBA refers to a master’s degree in business administration recognised and awarded by universities around the world. This degree is a popular academic entry into the corporate management domain. A PGDBA is a post-graduate diploma in business administration which is awarded by technical institutions in India who are not authorised by the state to award an MBA degree.
2. In India, degrees are proprietary to universities. However, being a part of the university system also means that the course structure is rather rigid and constant industry updates are out of the question, often requiring long bureaucratic procedures. On the other hand, PGDBA allows flexibility in the curriculum. Institutes keep on updating the curriculum regularly according to industry needs and standards.
3. Aspirants looking for this course can opt from various traditional specialisations such as Supply Chain, Human Resource, Marketing, Finance, etc. PGDBA courses offer newer specialisations in the fields of Blockchain, Digital Marketing, Data Science and much more.
4. MBA is a mix of theoretical learning and practical exercises, but the focus lies on theories and concepts. Though the course is similar to MBA, PGDBA emphasises on practical learning, case studies and live projects for better understanding of the corporate world.
