AMPH FAQs

AMPH follows a hybrid delivery model with a combination of online learning and in-person modules. 

Classes are held at the ISB campuses in Hyderabad and Mohali, as per the announced calendar. 

Indian regulations do not permit independent institutions to award master's degrees. You will receive a certification from ISB. 

You will spend approximately 36 days on campus, including 16 weekends. You will need to take around 20 working days off over the year. 

Expect to spend eight to ten hours per week on pre-readings, assignments, projects, and case studies.

Course materials, pre-reads, references, and book lists will be provided in advance via the Learning Management System (LMS), shipped to you, or handed over during campus visits. 

You can post queries on the LMS discussion board. ISB faculty or staff will respond, and if needed, someone will call to clarify. Peers may also contribute, supporting collaborative learning. 

Deferrals are discouraged. In exceptional cases, deferral may be granted with valid documentation. A non-refundable deferral fee, in addition to the admission fee, is payable to secure a seat for the next cohort. The deferral fee is adjusted against the programme fee. Note: The applicable fee will be that of the year you join. Deferral is allowed only for one year; beyond that, you must reapply. 

You must reapply for the next academic year. 

We aim to respond within10–15 days of receiving your application. Exact timelines will be announced soon.

Refunds are governed by the prevailing policy. Pro-rated refunds apply only for future terms already paid for. No refunds are given for terms that have commenced or been completed. ISB may deduct any non-recoverable expenses paid in advance (e.g., boarding and lodging). 

No, campus placement services are not provided.

There are three reasons:

1. AMPH is a part-time executive programme. 
2. Many participants have employer support in the form of time off; hence, it is not appropriate to offer placement services. 
3. Participants typically have significant experience and aim for targeted roles that are usually filled via headhunting.
