My friend is currently pursuing PGDM in HCM from GIM and gave me a general picture of the course.

The HCM program covers various domains of Healthcare like

• hospitals
• pharmaceuticals
• med devices
• public health
• health IT
• health insurance

The roles offered through this program include

• Marketing/sales executives
• Management trainee 
• Assistant Manager
• Operations Executive

Placements: The institute boasts of 100% placement percentage of HCM course with average at INR 10.4 LPA and Highest at INR 26 LPA. The majority of students were placed in the Healthcare IT sector (47%), followed by the Consulting (43%), Medical Device (43%) and Pharmaceutical (5%) sectors.

Infrastructure: The college has a world-class campus with 24*7 functioning libraries along with sports and hostel/mess facilities. Its location in Goa speaks of the beauty of the campus alone.

Suitability: This course can be taken by students with any background but it is most suitable for students with a healthcare background, Computer science/IT background, and Pharmacy & biotech background. However, there are many students from varied backgrounds like B.A. B.Sc., non-IT Engineering, B.Com, etc. who have successfully started their career in healthcare after completing this program. 

So Goa Institute of Management excels in almost every aspect and its HCM IS considered one of the best-coveted programs.
