How is IIM Kozhikode for HR?

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.
