The Indian Institute of Management (IIM) Mumbai, in collaboration with Jaro Education, has introduced a new Blended Post Graduate Programme in Management (MBA–BPGP) aimed at working professionals seeking to enhance their managerial and leadership skills without taking a career break.
The two-year programme combines academic learning with workplace application, offering participants the flexibility to pursue a management degree while continuing their professional commitments.
Programme structure and learning format
According to an official statement, the MBA–BPGP will be delivered in a blended mode, comprising live online sessions along with two one-week on-campus immersion modules — one at the mid-point and another at the end of the programme. These sessions are designed to provide learners with exposure to IIM Mumbai’s faculty and campus-based learning environment while maintaining continuity in their professional roles.

Eligibility and admission requirements
The programme is open to executives, managers, entrepreneurs, and professionals from both public and private sectors who possess a minimum of three years of full-time work experience after graduation. Candidates must hold a bachelor’s degree with at least 50% marks (45% for SC/ST/PwD candidates) from a recognized institution.
Applicants are required to have a valid score in CAT, GMAT, GRE, or IMAT (IIM Mumbai Admission Test) taken within the last five years. Selection will be based on academic background, work experience, test scores, and other relevant criteria as determined by IIM Mumbai.
