On completion of the two-year learning process, the student receives a Post Graduate Diploma in Management (PGDM) on the Convocation. This dream day will be held in March every year. Eminent personalities with high credentials in the area of Management and giants in the Corporate world are invited to join the SDMIMD family in honouring the student in this awarding ceremony.

I have a dream…
Where the mind is without fear and the head is held high;
Where knowledge is free;
Where the world has not been broken up into fragments by narrow
domestic walls;
Where words come out from the depth of truth;
Where tireless striving stretches its arms towards perfection;
Where the clear stream of reason has not lost its way into the
dreary desert sand of dead habit;
Where the mind is led forward by Thee into ever-widening thought
and action--
Into that heaven of freedom, my Father, let my country awake.
This is my prayer to Thee, my Lord-strike, strike at the root of
penury in my heart.
Give me the strength lightly to bear my joys and sorrows.
Give me the strength to make my love fruitful in service.
Give me the strength never to disown the poor or bend my knees
before insolent might.
Give me the strength to raise my mind high above daily trifles.
And give me the strength to surrender my strength to Thy will
with love.

- Nobel Laureate for Literature, Rabindranath Tagore
