The MBA-HR program was conceptualized and started in 2011 with the purpose of developing professionals with strong grounding in HR domain as well as possessing deep understanding of business and other functions. Over this nine years journey, through our rigorous and contemporary curriculum along with strong academia and industry interface, we have been able to develop strong HR professionals who are placed in organizations across diverse sectors in India and other countries. In the last few years, we have consistently been placed amongst the top ranking MBA-HR programs in the country.
Our curriculum review guidelines that require at least 20% review and updating of all courses every year, along with constant feedback from our stakeholders, ensured that our course structure and course contents were always contemporary and kept pace with changes in the industry. However, to anticipate the skill requirements in our fast digitizing, data-driven industry, we initiated the process of CCR (Comprehensive Curriculum Review) of the program in June, 2019. The process included multiple phases:
Phase 1: Generating inputs from industry, alumni, present senior students and academia (Indian and International).
Phase 2: Information Analysis, structuring courses and developing broad course outlines
Phase 3: Approval from our Board of Studies that includes CEOs and CHROs of Large Corporations and Conglomerates, Founders of Start-Ups, and Academicians from other Premier Institutions.
Phase 4:Including inputs from BOS, adapting the initial course offerings.
Phase 5:Internal Appraisal and Approval and finalization of course offerings
The process of CCR was completed in February, 2020 and resulted in a program structure where every course will enable students to:
