Post Graduate Programme in Public Policy & Management (PGPPM)
The two-year Post Graduate Programme in Public Policy and Management (PGPPM) of Indian Institute of Management Bangalore (IIMB) has entered its sixth year. Catalyzed by the Government of India and UNDP in the year 2002, the PGPPM was conceived as a pioneering programme in public policy designed by India ’s leading business school.

PGPPM also allows participants’ the opportunity to specialize in a policy area of your choice.

Some of our alumni are on assignments in frontier areas such as Infrastructure Financing, Regulations, Public-Private Partnerships and in management of key Social Sector Projects.
