In 1969, it was replaced by a three-year part-time Diploma Program in Business Management (DBM), which was converted in a part-time, three-year program leading to the Master of Business Administration (MBA) in 1972. In the same year, a separate Department of Business Administration was created. The three year part-time MBA program was further upgraded into two year full-time MBA in 1976.
