IIM Kashipur, Max Healthcare to launch PG diploma programme in Hospital Management

The PG diploma course will be launched by the end of this year at IIM Kashipur and classes will be taken by faculties from both IIM Kashipur and Max Healthcare.

The Indian Institute of Management Kashipur (IIM Kashipur) has teamed up with Max Healthcare Ltd to launch a postgraduate diploma programme in hospital management. As per an agreement signed by both organisations, the launch of the PG diploma programme will address the increasing demand for trained manpower in the healthcare sector. 

The PG diploma programme in hospital management is of nine months duration and seeks to cater exclusively to executives and managers looking to develop and enhance their expertise in hospital operations, an IIM Kashipur statement said. Both organisations, the statement added, also decided to conduct joint research, seminars and other academic collaborations as part of the agreement.

Saying that this has been the first such programme, Professor Kunal Ganguly, Dean (Development), IIM Kashipur added that the PG diploma course will be launched by the end of this year and faculties will take classes from both IIM Kashipur and Max Healthcare. Students pursuing this course will also get the opportunity for hands-on training at the Max Hospitals.

The IIM Kashipur and Max Healthcare PG diploma programme will be a blended programme, meaning thereby, the course will integrate live lectures delivered by faculty from IIM Kashipur, insights from senior management at Max Healthcare and “cutting-edge” e-learning content.

This unique blend of knowledge, digital tools, and techniques, combined with hands-on experience gained through immersion at Max Healthcare, equips participants with a comprehensive skill set, Umesh Gupta, Senior Director-HR and Chief People Officer at Max Healthcare Ltd added.

Citing Economic Survey 2022-23, an IIM Kashipur said: “It is to be noted that India’s healthcare spending as a proportion of GDP is expected to rise to 2.1% in FY23 from 2.2% in FY22 and 1.6% in FY21, and the global healthcare market will expand by 2030.”

Given the growth of the healthcare industry and the extraordinary demands of skillful operations managers in hospitals, this blended program will help fulfil the increased demand for a skilled workforce in the industry, the institute statement added.
