  • The IPM pass out students are awarded with the Bachelors degree from IGNOU and a degree of Integrated Diploma in Management by IIM-Indore/IIM-Rohtak

  • YES, One can do that but there are some complications which makes it, not a good thought to be practical enough.
    Basically, one can leave the programme after first 3 years of IPM, but, it is a 5 year programme, therefore it won't give any certification or testimonial of 3 years of study at IIM.
    Therefore, one will be left only with IGNOU degree and 3 years of IPM education that isn't even certified.
    So, leaving mid-course will leave one high and dry and also since the only certification one will have is from IGNOU. Hence, it may not be advised to leave IPM after 3 years.
