Great Lakes Institute of Management is a premium MBA institute whose brand is making rapid strides. The institute’s flagship program PGPM - Post Graduate Program in Management is a one year full time program. This is a fairly elaborate and intensive program on the lines of ISB PGP. It is affiliated to Stuart Business School and Illinois Institute of Technology for its PGPM course.
It also has MoUs with premium universities like Yale, Illinois Institute of Technology and Nanyang Technological University to its credit.
The faculty is world class and includes professors from various b-schools/ universities such as Kellogg School of management, Carnegie-Mellon University, Stern School of Business, Stanford Graduate School of Business, Florida International University, University of Illinois, IIMA, IIMB and others.
Fees
Probably one of the key benefits of Great lakes is its fee structure. The total course fee (including tuition fees, course material, accommodation and food) is about Rs. 11,00,000 for the 2010-11 session. This is relatively less when compared to other premium 1 year programs in India.
Fees for international students (those with international passport) will be about USD 30,000.
Please note the savings in opportunity cost of 1 year if you are comparing this with 2 year MBA programs.
