ISB Hyderabad FAQs
The Post Graduate Programme (PGP) is a one-year, full-time residential management programme comparable in rigour and content to a two-year full-time MBA at global business schools.
No. ISB PGP is a certificate programme and does not confer an MBA degree, as only universities in India can grant degrees.
Study treks are immersive field visits—international, domestic, or social sector–based—which help students gain real-world exposure by engaging with organisations and stakeholders.
Applicants must hold a bachelor’s degree, a valid GMAT or GRE score, and have at least two years of full-time work experience, along with a good academic and leadership profile.
