In recent day’s globalization and the extremely advanced business environment, business organizations worldwide face several uncertainties. It is important for the business's survival, employee motivation, and worldwide development to retain a highly competitive and diverse marketplace. 

MBA - HRM at XIMB:

The program helps you with vigorous training in HRM theories and practical knowledge. It successfully builds a holistic business perception in student’s minds with positive business principles and social understanding.

• The course is intended to extend highly experienced HR professionals.
• It imparts the skill, knowledge, and experiences that are indispensable to direct an organization’s HR department.
• This program offers in the disciplines of OB (Organisational Behaviour), HRM (Human Resource Management), and IR (Industrial Relations).
• Students from other study backgrounds like Marketing, Strategic Management, Operations, Economics, Accounting and Finance, Information Systems, and Business Ethics can study.

Academics

• The course is covered within six-term with three months duration for each. Thus, the academic year consists of 3 terms in this institute.
• The first term starts in June and ends in September. The second term begins in September and lasts up to December, and the third term duration is from December to March.
• This program includes 16 class sessions in a week, with 90 minutes duration for each program. Thus, the pupil’s workload, such as term papers, readings, projects, field visits, and classroom sessions, is expected to entail roughly 70 hours in a week.

Thus, if you are a fresher and scored 55% in graduation with XAT /GMAT//CAT/X-GMT/ NMAT scores, then it is suggested not to waste another year. Don’t wait for another try because the selection process is entirely done on the basis of your performances in XAT /GMAT//CAT/X-GMT/ NMAT. The college administration also takes a writing test, group discussion followed by a personal interview session, so be well-prepared without wasting time.

If you compare the two institutes purely based on brand value, location, batch strength, etc. then it is clear that NMIMS Mumbai is the better institute. XIMB Bhubaneswar was a much better institute before, but it has lost its old charm now and has been clearly overtaken by NMIMS Mumbai. 

This could be due to the placements on which the students did not concentrate well enough or the institute did not change the course structure according to the market demand or simply that the location and other advantages got NMIMS to a better spot. This is not to say that XIMB Bhubaneswar is bad, in fact, it is better than many other private B-schools, but it has lost itself to NMIMS Mumbai.

Now comparing the two courses, the MBA in Business Management (MBA - BM) from XIMB Bhubaneswar is the core program of the institute with the option of pursuing specializations in operations, marketing, and HR after first year. The HR program in NMIMS Mumbai grooms the students to be future HRs from day one.

As it can be seen, XIMB BM does provide a better average CTC to its students than the NMIMS HR. But the difference is negligible and considering the brand reputation, location and other things such as future growth potential, NMIMS HR is a better choice of the two purely in terms of placement perspective as it is the dominant decision-maker for many students. However, if you are not interested in HR and want to go for other specializations, then XIMB BM is your only choice and is not bad either.

The faculty of management now come under Xavier University Bhubaneswar. It consists of School of business management, School of HR, School of RM, and School of SM. The MBA HRM program of XIMB is one of the best programs in the college. It is a 2-year residential program. 

• The college also has good infrastructure as well. 
• Most of the students get good placement from this college. It does not matter much whether you are a fresher or an experienced candidate if you have the right skill, knowledge, and presentation skill then you will surely get through it. 
• The placement also takes into account your academic scores, extracurricular activities, and GDPI performance.

Below is brief highlights of the HRM program.

The program not only focuses on academics but also focuses on extracurricular activities like business events, cultural events, and sports events.
