Programme Structure
The German Dual Education System is globally respected for one simple reason — it prepares students for the real world, not just exams. This model combines structured classroom learning with continuous training inside real companies, ensuring that knowledge is always connected to practical application.
At IGTC, this system comes alive through close collaboration with leading Indo-German companies. Students don’t learn business concepts in isolation. They apply what they learn in real workplace environments, guided by industry mentors and faculty.
For over three decades, IGTC has been the sole institution in India dedicated to this purpose-driven learning model.
A structured five-term learning cycle that blends classroom concepts with real-world corporate application.
