Remarks :
The course is best suited for candidates who are interested in a career in the HR domain and also a management aspirant. Some drawbacks of this course are that IITKGP is not a traditional B-School and so the exposure of this course is a little less compared to other institutions. Also, there is no cap set for the minimum CTC offered by MHRM at IITKGP.
Course Curriculum Overview :
The course is mainly focused on enabling a candidate to become a successful HR and equips a student with all relevant skills and abilities for that matter. Exams are conducted on a semester basis where there is one mid-sem exam and one end-sem exam.
Placement Experience :
Every batch gets 100% placement every year. The batch sizes are generally small (around 20-25 people) and there are ample opportunities to get into a renowned organization until one messes up badly. The summer internship opportunity is provided to every student by the placement committee of the course and also the final placements are handled by the placement committee only, teachers take no part in the placement of this course. The average summer internship package is around 60K for 2 months and the average CTC offered during final placement is around 10.5lakh with the highest salary offered being 14lakh INR.

The course is pretty cheap compared to other similar courses offered in different B-Schools around India considering the ROI factor.
Loan/ Scholarship Provisions :
The loan facility is available from SBI. Being an IIT, a candidate will not have problems getting clearance for a loan for this course. No scholarship is provided to any candidate. I, personally did not avail of any loan facility for this course.
