The programme is well received among civil servants and gaining in popularity among the non-government participants.<br /><br />For more information, visit: www.iimb.ernet.in/pgppm. The last date for submitting of the applications is January 31, 2012. <br /><br />The Post Graduate Programme in Public Policy and Management (PGPPM) was flagged off in 2001 from the Centre for Public Policy (CPP), which was established by IIMB with initial support from the Department of Personnel and Training, GOI, and UNDP. <br /><br />The main aim of CPP is to develop as an alternate think tank through excellence in research and scholarship, and education and training. The PGPPM was started to fulfill the niche for an educational programme in public policy in India for officers from various civil services like IAS, IPS, IFS and other services.
