# IIM Mumbai opens admissions for third batch of blended MBA programme 2026-11-05T03:10:46+00:00 | Governance | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 1 independent outlet IIM Mumbai, in partnership with Jaro Education, has opened admissions for the third batch of its two-year Blended Post Graduate Programme in Management (MBA-BPGP). The programme is designed for working professionals who wish to develop management and leadership skills while continuing their careers. The curriculum covers operations, supply chain management, marketing, finance, data science, environment and human resources. Participants can choose specialisations in the second year. The course combines on-campus learning with distance components and starts in mid-February 2027. Eligibility requires a bachelor’s degree with at least 50% marks and three years of relevant post-graduation work experience as of 31 October 2026. Applicants must hold a valid CAT, GMAT or GRE score from June 2021 onwards, or appear for the IIM Mumbai Admission Test (IMAT). ## Indian Opinion Analysis The two-year programme targets professionals who cannot leave their jobs for a full-time MBA, giving them access to IIM Mumbai’s curriculum and a degree without a career break. By accepting CAT, GMAT and GRE scores or its own test (IMAT), IIM Mumbai tries to widen the applicant pool. The early-February 2027 start means interested candidates must act within the next three months, though the application deadline is not yet specified in the announcement. ## Coverage - thehansindia.com Factual announcement, no editorial slant, no attribution of claims This brief was synthesised by AI from the source linked above.
