Hey @Muzan_17 I'm currently doing the one year on campus executive MBA from IIM Lucknow after 8 years of work ex.

Hi , actually i have been wondering that is there any campus placement available for executive mba and does it holds same value as a traditional mba from IIM’s . Are executive MBA’s treated like a cheap knockoff of the real deal . And does it provides a career boost or is it just like another row in educational qualifications

If it is the one year on campus, residential program, then:
a. Yes, there are campus placements b. These are definitely not treated as rip-offs or knock-offs of the two year program.
c. You are treated at par with the two year MBA graduates, sometimes even better because most people in the one-year executive MBA bring with them at least 5 years of work ex.
It is the certificate courses which are under a year long which have a bad reputation.

As far as I know, executive MBA's are for the ones who have considerable job experience and want to switch to managerial positions and it's just the degree that's stopping them from reaching there. Usually people who want to switch internally prefer executive MBA.

So its not possible for a 2-3 YOE in IT sector to reach better position ….

I doubt executive MBA will help in this case .
