Can a 5-year IPM from IIM Indore be considered equivalent to a post graduate program from there in terms of career prospects et al?

IIM Indore is ranked 12th in the Outlook ICare MBA Ranking 2021. It is one of the most prestigious management institutes in India with a huge brand name.

• IIM Indore offers PGP as its flagship program. 
• But it also offers a dual-degree program, IPM (Integrated Programme in Management). It commenced in the year 2011.
• An MBA degree after the IPM program is equivalent to the PGP program of IIM Indore. 
• Even the placements for both programs are together. 
• However, if the PGP candidate is a graduate from the top IIT, he will have IIT+IIM degrees, which will be an edge over the IPM program by IIM Indore.

Overall, the prestige of this course will grow in the future when the alumni base for the program will strengthen.
