Is the SCMHRD good for marketing too, or just HR?

PM
Piyush Malawat Posted On : June 15th, 2023
Studied at Symbiosis Centre for Management and Human Resource Development

I believe SCMHRD is an amazing college for all managerial fields.

The HR stream is the most popular because it began with an emphasis on Personnel Management and Industrial Relations, drawing on the experiences of seasoned managers in and around Mumbai, Pune, and Nashik.

SCMHRD has been working to improve its resources and infrastructure since its beginnings. Placements have also improved. The faculty and the institution's reach have likewise grown steadily during the last decade.

As a result, admission to SCMHRD will be ideal for an MBA (Marketing) candidate. If you have the opportunity, please join.

How is IIM Kozhikode for HR?

S
Sumit Posted On : November 15th, 2022
Post Graduate Diploma in Management from Indian Institute of Management Kozhikode

IIM Kozhikode does not offer any specialization degree. It offers a General Management or PGDM (Post Graduate Diploma in Management). This is somewhat equivalent to an MBA. It doesn’t offer specific PGDM in Operations, Finance, HR, etc.

A variety of electives are offered in the second year. You may choose these on the basis of your interests and the career you wish to pursue.

The area offers a list of elective courses in which the students choose to have a career in the human resource field or develop their people management competency. Some elective courses are as follows:

  1. Legal Aspects of HRM

  2. Strategic HRM

  3. Some Recent OB Inputs for Enhancing Employee Performance and Humanistic Orientation in Workplace

  4. Compensation and Rewards Management

  5. Performance Management

  6. Leadership: Applied, Conceptual and Evolving

  7. Discovering Self

  8. Negotiations & Conflicts Resolution

  9. Management Consulting: Profession and Practice

  10. Managing Creativity

  11. Organization Change and Development

  12. Recruitment & Selection

Honestly, IIM Kozhikode is not a good option for HR. IIM Ranchi or SCMHRD are better options for the same.

What is the usual percentile range scored by the last admit in the HRM program of XLRI, Jamshedpur?

IC
Indrani Chatterjee Posted On : April 26th, 2023
PGDM from Xavier School of Management (2018)

For the Human Resource Management program, the overall cut-off for male engineering applicants is 93 percentile, while it is 91 percentile for female engineering students. 

Male applicants with non-engineering backgrounds must have a 90 percentile, while female applicants with non-engineering backgrounds must have an 88 percentile. It's possible that even with a high percentile, you might not be chosen if you have a poor interview performance. 

While it's helpful to have some sense of scale, I'd advise shooting for the stars and ignoring percentiles for the time being.

How good is IIM Shillong for HR?

KA
Kshitij Arora Posted On : January 16th, 2023
completed MBA in 2014

One of the major USPS of IIM Shillong is the diversity of electives it offers. Anyone who hasn’t decided on a domain can have a peek into the various angles of the business sector and then make a healthy decision.

The courses offered are flexible, comprising a blend of Marketing, HR, Operations, Finance, etc. This enables the students not to specialize in a single domain only. As far as HR is concerned, I have listed down some highlights of this particular domain at IIM Shillong.

  • IIM Shillong offers an impeccable variety of courses ranging from Organizational pathologies to HR tools.
  • The faculty includes some widely acclaimed personalities in the field. Some renowned members of the permanent faculty include Prof R.Dwivedi and Prof S.Kakoty. These professors just don’t impart HR knowledge rather they ingrain it in us.
  • The guest lectures are augmented by highly honored professors like Prof M Deshmukh. He gave an overview of the HR domain through activities like designing a dream job. He bought in specialists to teach some important fundamentals. 
  • The HR clubs at IIM Shillong like UsHR keep alive the student-driven factor. The club conducts quizzes and article writing competitions to facilitate self-learning among the students.
  • You can also opt for CIS. This is a thesis you write about a suggested topic. It enhances your previous knowledge and exposes you to various dimensions of HR.

At the end of the program, you will have developed a detailed knowledge of terms, concepts and insights.

TA
Tithi Aggrawal Posted On : June 2nd, 2023
Lives in New Delhi

If you do not have a specific preference for specialty, the XLRI HRM course is the greatest fit for your needs.

The HRM course at XLRI Jamshedpur is the best in Asia. They receive incredible placements, and the profiles they get are better than any other HR programme in India. Few students in XL HR have been placed in Consulting and General Management roles, which are in high demand at major business schools. Almost all of the top HR in India's leading firms are from XL Jamshedpur, which helps with networking and job advancement. They have a fantastic alumni network. The recent appointment of Leena Nair as Chanel's global CEO is an illustration of how their graduates (XL HR) have performed.

For an MBA HR, should we choose IIM Ranchi (PGDMHRM) or SCMHRD?

BG
Benika Gaira Posted On : January 12th, 2023
PGDHRM HR Management, Indian Institute of Management Ranchi (2019

To answer your question in better terms I will rate the colleges based on parameters such as placements, curriculum, and alumni base.

  1. TISS / XLRI - TISS has an advantage owing to its smaller batch and location in a metro (Mumbai). XLRI excels in the Alumni network and the variety of roles offered. In addition, the option of getting a Non-HR profile after an MBA has increased its ranking considerably.
  2. MDI Gurgaon - After this, MDI Gurgaon bags the position because of its location and strong alumni base.
  3. SCMHRD - It is a decent college but the quality of the crowd is substandard when compared to IIMs.
  4. Newer IIMs like Ranchi
  5. IMI & other colleges
