Institute of Management Technology Hyderabad (IMT Hyderabad) offers a diverse range of postgraduate management programs including Post Graduate Diploma in Management (PGDM), Executive PGDM, Fellow Programme in Management (FPM), and certificate courses. The institute does not offer undergraduate or distance learning programs; its focus is primarily on full-time residential management education and executive development programs. IMT Hyderabad's courses are AICTE approved, NBA and SAQS accredited, and carry equivalence to an MBA degree granted by AIU. The course curriculum is designed to blend academic rigor with industry relevance, preparing students for leadership roles across various sectors.
The flagship program at IMT Hyderabad is the two-year full-time Post Graduate Diploma in Management (PGDM), available in several specializations. These include PGDM-General Management, PGDM in Finance, Marketing, Information Technology, and Logistics & Supply Chain Management. Alongside this, the institute also offers a distinctive 15-month Executive PGDM program aimed at working professionals seeking to upgrade their management skills without leaving their jobs. The Fellow Programme in Management (FPM) is a doctoral-level research program that supports those interested in contributing to academic and professional knowledge in management.
The regular PGDM programs have a duration of 2 years (4 semesters) in a full-time residential mode.
The Executive PGDM is a 15-month program designed for working executives with relevant experience.
The FPM is a doctoral program without a fixed duration but generally spans 3-5 years depending on research progress.
Certificate courses are short-term programs ranging from a few weeks to a few months, designed for skill enhancement.
The eligibility criterion across the PGDM and Executive PGDM courses mandates candidates to hold a bachelor’s degree in any discipline with at least 50% aggregate marks from a recognized university. Final-year graduates are also eligible to apply subject to submission of passing certificates at the time of admission. Admission to these programs is based on valid scores obtained in national-level management entrance exams like CAT, XAT, GMAT, CMAT, ATMA, MAT, GATE, GRE, or UGC-NET (specific to FPM). Candidates must also clear the institute’s personal interview and group discussion round for final selection.
The fee structure for the PGDM program is approximately INR 14.77 lakh for the full two-year duration. This fee generally covers tuition, library, infrastructure, and other academic services. The fee is payable in installments, typically per semester or annually, as determined by the institute. The Executive PGDM fee is comparatively lower, aligned with the shorter duration and blended learning structure, but exact figures vary each year.
IMT Hyderabad offers its programs strictly in regular full-time residential mode except for the Executive PGDM, which blends on-campus sessions with online teaching to accommodate working professionals. Currently, there are no distance or fully online degree programs offered by the institute.
IMT Hyderabad also provides various merit and need-based scholarships to deserving candidates, subject to institute guidelines and availability. Scholarships have specific eligibility criteria and are awarded based on academic performance and entrance exam scores. Candidates interested in scholarships are advised to check the official college website during admission cycles for the latest information.
