I learned about the corporate culture and working traits in the Hospital Administration, says Dr Nikita

As after BDS, I was working for three years as a Dentist and meanwhile preparing for PG also. Then one of my senior doctors who is already in the administrative department, suggested me to go for a hospital management course, as it has a very good career option. After that, I enquired about the same and came to learn about some good institutions, in which IIHMR Delhi was also on that list.

Then I applied for IIHMR Delhi and a few more institutions, but meanwhile few people including my faculty and senior doctors said that "if you get a chance in International Institute of Health Management Research - IIHMR, Delhi, don't think for another option, it’s one of the best institution for Hospital and Health Management & it's a mindset that if you are a student of this institution then you have a complete idea regarding this field and you are capable to handle everything." 

After that, I started preparing for GD-PI round and luckily got selected in IIHMR-Delhi.

One more thing I liked about this institution, before admission we had an interaction meeting/ doubt clearing session, where we got the chance to interact with Dean, a few faculty, and seniors. They have cleared all my doubts so well and I felt that here teachers are very cooperative, and this was the reason I personally preferred IIHMR Delhi.

Q:   Is IIHMR Delhi worth it?
A:

IIHMR Delhi is a recognised institute with PGDM as flagship course. Talking about rankings, IIHMR Delhi is among the top 20 B-Schools in North India. The institute was ranked at 58 among top 100 B-Schools all over India. It is also among the top private institute as per the Times of India B-School Survey 2021. 

If placement is a concern, IIHMR Delhi can be a great choice. Looking at the placement data, the highest and average package offered during IIHMR Delhi MBA placements 2023 stood at INR 18 LPA and INR 5.9 LPA, respectively. Earlier, the Hospital sector emerged as the top recruiting sector that placed 54% of the total students during International Institute of Health Management Research Delhi placements 2021.

Q:   Is International Institute of Health Management Research a good college?
A:

Yes, IIHMR Delhi is a good college. IIHMR Delhi was established in 2008 and is accredited with an A Grade by NAAC. The International Institute of Health Management Research, New Delhi (IIHMR Delhi) is part of the Society for Indian Institute of Health Management Research (IIHMR). AIU has recognised IIHMR Delhi's PGDHM programmes as equivalent to MBA. Located in Delhi, the college is approved by AICTE and some of the courses provided by the college are accredited by NBA.

In the starting of the first year, I got a mentor, who guided me through this entire programme and journey at IIHMR. Faculties here calm the students also if they are not so confident or are worried whether they could do well or not, they support a lot, and they make them realise that students must focus on studies and work, rest responsibilities are on them to help for better future.

I learned about the corporate culture and working traits in the Hospital Administration. I was surprised that the whole academics at IIHMR are Placement & Research-driven. Only a few make students train in Research & Development. Apart from academics we’ve clubs for various events that make us work in corporate culture. My batchmates are from Pan India, this developed our vast network of culture, demographics, way of work, conflict management, negotiations, and competition.

Here I get the chance to be a part of various workshops and webinars, where we interact with various personalities from different organisations. Apart from studies, we also get a chance to participate in various co-curricular activities. Different tasks are assigned, activities are held and many more to make our programme more interesting and ultimately improve our skills.

IIHMR Delhi is the best choice for my career that what I have felt, and I am glad that I am a part of it. All credits go to my faculty and IIHMR Delhi team that made me so confident in my zone to rise in this field so far.
