The second year (Trimester IV–VI) includes 14 advanced courses (42 credits), with a strong emphasis on specializations, industry-oriented projects, and research-driven application. Students select their major specialization from the second trimester and add a minor specialization in the fourth trimester.Specializations span across contemporary domains such as Valuation, Analytics, Finance, Marketing, Human Resources, and more.The program includes a mandatory Summer Internship Program (SIP) and culminates in a Capstone Research Project, enabling students to apply their learning to solve real business problems. The PGDMX structure is further enriched by Knowledge Enhancement Courses, certifications, and hands-on learning through live projects, business simulations, industry visits, seminars, and guest lectures by domain experts. These experiential components help bridge the gap between classroom learning and corporate realities. Throughout the program, ACCMAN maintains a strong emphasis on value-based education, responsible leadership, and digital integration, ensuring that students not only excel professionally but also uphold ethical and sustainable business practices. This holistic approach empowers students to lead with competence, creativity, and conscience in today’s increasingly complex and competitive global business environment.
