What is PGDM (IB)?
Post Graduate Diploma in International Business is a specialized management programme that aims to prepare students for highly lucrative careers in international business operations.
Why PGDM in IB?
In this age of rapid globalization of business operations, a specialized diploma in international business opens up many career opportunities for students in the domestic and international markets.
Students of the PGDM in International Business Management can look forward to getting employed in both public and private sector organizations. Job opportunities are many in banks, financial institutions, trade houses, investment companies, export/import companies, and international business consultancies.

Summer Internship Programme (SIP)
Programme (SIP):Summer Internship Project – 6 to 8 weeks
Internships have a distinct edge over interview-based final recruitment as a method of evaluating potential employees. Deserving candidates often get pre-placement offers, and students at AIM have enjoyed a particularly special relationship with their recruiters in this regard. Recruiters firmly believe that summer interns offer a fresh perspective on projects. They are in a unique position to provide an objective and unbiased point of view about the organization's work process.
After completing three terms in the first year, the students undertake a summer internship in industry to gain hands-on experience. SIP is eight to nine weeks in duration. As a part of SIP, students submit a detailed project report and make a formal presentation to a panel of faculty and external members from industry and academia.
