As far as HR goes, I myself intend to take it up as a specialization. For HR, you will need to enroll in the Core program.

This helps the students interact with the faculty as well as eminent HR speakers and executives who are invited to speak at events held by the committee.
Ultimately, a lot of activities in the college, including placements are student driven, which gives us a hands-on experience in management and learn experientially.
