With the growing advent of digitization, distance courses particularly distance MBA courses are in vogue and have established themselves, perhaps if not more, but equally valuable to traditional MBA courses. More often than not they represent the most flexible and economic way to earn a degree. A distance MBA today is widely accepted across global economies and the degree holders are looked upon as talented individuals with the most in-demand skills.

Reports suggest that the enrolment rate in Distance MBA courses in India is among the top 10 in the world. Why? India has the largest youth population among which there is a large portion of students who take jobs after graduation. These students are inclined to opt for distance MBA courses the most. These are designed especially to suit the needs of working professionals. It gives them the chance to continue their job along with an academic degree added to their hat. Moreover, they also give the flexibility of time and space.

India has a good number of students who enrol in distance MBA courses hence more than 50 universities and institutes have started distance MBA programs or equivalent degrees. But picking the right fit for you can be tough in this crowded education marketplace. 

This article shortlists a few universities and specialized courses that are perfect for working professionals. This shortlisting is done on a dynamic research basis and not only the conventional way of comparing universities based on ranking rather this shortlisting is done on the bases of the following parameters: – 

  1. Curriculum 
  2. Flexibility

These are a few universities that are the priority choices of students. There are, indeed, other universities that may meet these criteria such as Amity University, SP Jain Institute of management, etc. The selection of the university is also a subjective choice of the students which is fair enough but we recommend you to do your due diligence and consider the 5 parameters that are discussed above. 

Besides the aforementioned institutes offering some of the best part-time or distance MBA courses, there are other institutes that a student can look forward to based on their individual research. However, if particularly a student is looking for a distance MBA in India or distance MBA in the country, we strongly recommend factors like career advancement services, mentorship, and placement assistance when choosing an distance management program.
