DCP Chairperson The PGDM Dual Country Program (DCP) is a multi-country post graduate program in Management offered by the IMT Group of Institutions. Since its inception over a decade ago, the program has attracted outstanding talent with global career ambitions and has been successful in creating successful global managers and budding business leaders who continue to excel in their spheres of business. PGDM - DCP is designed to address the limitations of the conventional MBA programs, by infusing international elements into the DNA of the Program. As the name itself signifies, the aspirants of the program spend a year each in two countries, with 3 terms each spent at the IMT Campuses in Ghaziabad and Dubai. The overarching focus of the program is to mould the students for international careers, done through a steady mix of customized course content, course delivery by international faculty, short term and long term projects, and a prolonged and sustained exposure to a multi-cultural country like UAE. The various elements of the program have been handpicked to provide the DCP students a holistic exposure to elements required to excel in global settings. The DCP Program has continuously evolved since its inception a decade ago, and the program structure, content and delivery have been reviewed continuously to ensure alignment to the contemporary trends and global business scenarios. The latest in this continued metamorphosis is the adoption of super specialization tracks into the curriculum design. Starting with the AY 2021-23, the program offers three super speclization tracks – Advanced Quantitative Finance, International Trade and Logistics, and International Business and Marketing. The three tracks, primarily aligned to the Finance, Operations, Strategy and Marketing domains, respectively, equips the students with skillsets necessary to excel as super specialists in these domains. The course curriculum exposes to the students to international business practices and regulations, strategic aspects of decision making, and role of technology in the various domains, in addition to traditional areas of focus. The courses will be delivered by a mix of internal and external experts in these domains, including top faculty from international institutions and experts from industry. This radical departure in course design and delivery, supplemented by cutting edge workshops and industry projects/ internships makes the program unique and hopes to forge industry-ready super-specialized global managers. While course content is often the bedrock of a post graduate business program, there are many other pillars which add on to the strength of the program, on which the students build their career foundations. The industry exposure through the summer internships, short term and long term projects, leadership talks and the industry visits are essential value additions over the 2 years of the program and DCP is designed to amplify the impact of these elements. DCP Program has been successful in attracting aspirants interested in pursuing international careers and the program through its innovative design and course delivery has been successful in moulding these talents into specialists with niche skillsets, equipped to excel in global settings. The super specializations build on to this decade old legacy by adding niche skillsets to the repertoire and creating a unique set of super specialists with cross functional expertise. I believe this program would cater to the aspirations of candidates intending to excel as global leaders and welcome you all to this transformational experience. The world beckons!
