How good in MBA in HRM in IIM when compared with XLRI?

BD
Bhavna Desai Posted On : June 14th, 2021
IIM Indore PGP 2018 Batch Passout

Getting to know from friends studying at these colleges. It is important for you to note that all of the IIMs do not offer a specialized program in Human Resource Management. Only IIM Ranchi and IIM Indore offer a dedicated program in the field of HRM. Here are some of the facts you must keep in mind before making any decision.

Make an informed decision

  • MBA in HR is way different than MBA in any other stream.
  • MBA is all about being analytical and calculative.
  • But if you choose to pursue HRM, you should be able to focus on human interactions and relationships.

Brand name

  • You may feel that some great B-schools in India such as XLRI, MDI, and TISS are as old as the IIMs and possess the same brand value.
  • If you do not get a seat in an old IIM or are not obsessed with an IIM tag then mentioned colleges will be good for you.
  • They are equally good as the IIMs.

Faculty Team

  • IIMs are known for some of the finest professors in all of their specializations.
  • As the number of students in HRM is less, this also affects the number of faculty in that department.
  • XLRI has some great professors in HRM.

Peer group

  • Most of the learning outside the classroom comes from one’s friend circle.
  • Your fellow students in IIMs incline towards specializations such as Finance, Marketing, Operations, or IT.
  • Very few students opt for HRM.
  • Therefore, it will be a better learning environment where most people are interested in the same topic.

The conclusion is, if you are interested and inclined towards HRM then they should opt for XLRI, and if there is uncertainty in choice, then go for IIMs.

Which is best for MBA HR: SIBM Pune or NMIMS Mumbai or SCMHRD?

SG
Sujoy Ghosh Posted On : July 16th, 2021
Studied at University of Mumbai (2019)

The colleges that you have mentioned are quite old and reputed, leaving behind a history of a great placement record and a bright future.

Human Resources has become a promising field in today’s time. A good HR assures that the aspects of the business they work for proves to be fulfilled along with allowing the employees their own space wherein they give importance to the clients.

Based on certain parameters, allow me to compare all the three institutes so that it gets convenient to choose the B-School of your choice.

Categories SIBM Pune NMIMS Mumbai SCMHRD
Course Fee 17.26 lakh 6.04 lakh 11.94 lakh
Highest CTC 35 LPA 16 LPA 18-21 LPA
Average CTC 18 LPA 8 LPA 10 LPA
Recruiting Companies Crisil, HSBC, etc. Berger, ITC, etc. Mindtree, ICICI Bank, etc.

My suggestion would be to consider NMAT and even SNAP so that you get a better view to choose from. Some promising prospects are indeed offered by NMIMS and SIBM-P, but I believe you should go for that particular institute which is reputed for its HR department.

I know that the course pedagogy is good,but when it comes to placements and since the course is new,how good is the placement of XIMB HR when compared to courses like SCMHRD MBA n HR,SIBM HR,GIM etc?

RG
Richa Guha Posted On : April 20th, 2021
Studied at Xavier Institute of Management, Bhubaneswar (2019)

Going through the past few years of XIMB HRM placement report, the facts that can be gathered are as mentioned below:

  1. The intermediate records timely hover around 10-11 LPA, and the average simultaneously remains in the same range as well. Besides, the curve has witnessed a continual outpour since the program came into action.
  2. At the same time, the recruiters of the same are TATA HRDP, Aditya Birla HR Leadership, Coca Cola, GAIL, Godrej & Boyce, Korn & Ferry, Ola Cabs.
  1. XIMB is known to be listed under IPRS, and their placement records can be trusted entirely, unlike many others outside.

The facts and figures indicated above only make us see the enhanced feat a program has achieved not long after it had been established. It denotes the industry recognition that XIMB has obtained. These were not supposed to arrive on such short notice.

XIMB HR can be considered one of the top most sought-after HRM programs seen in the country.

However, SIBM and SCMHRD come with advantages for their locational factors and those that arrive with certain early players in the industry. But, the fees are quite high and both median and averages remain almost the same as XIMB.

Further, if you didn't know, the domicile quota does not affect the quality of students. It is because they have a cut-off only 2-3 percentile lesser than the national cut-off. That means, if the faculty does not find suitable students, they are most likely to not enroll them as a whole, because if they do, that’ll be compromising with the intake quality. 

They don’t have privileges to keep the quota cut-off more than the minimum of 2-3 percentile. They are one of the top management institutions of India. The institute believes that their figures speak on behalf of them.

I have been selected at Great Lakes, TAPMI, IRMA and IIT -BHU, KJ Somaiya (MBA - HCM). Which one should I take? I am totally confused.

AB
Aditi Banerjee Posted On : April 29th, 2023
Lives in Bangalore

First of all, congratulations on your acceptances to these colleges. Great Lakes would be the best option for you if you’re interested in a one-year MBA program, especially in the IT domain, given the current COVID situation. If you’re interested in rural management instead, IIRMA is considered the best program for that specialization.

I would advise against choosing IIT-BHU and recommend KJ Somaiya only if you’re specifically interested in pursuing an MBA in HCM. TAPMI would be the best choice for someone looking for a general MBA program without a specific interest in any of the specialized areas mentioned above.
