Our MBA program offers specialization on Marketing, Finance, HR, Operations and Infrastructure Management. Infrastructure Management specialization is offered through a separate degree which we call MBA (IM). Contrary to popular misconception, all our specializations are well received by the student community and well endorsed by the corporate; the fact that several corporate visit our campus to recruit our students across specialization. Some students might falsely believe the characters HR in our name SCMHRD to be specialization or functional area which as a matter of fact is not the case. It simply signifies development of Human Recourses as in Human Capital.

After conduction of the test and declaration of results, SCMHRD comes up with a list of candidates to be called on campus for a selection process. We typically call appx. 10% of candidates who apply to our programs. The basis for this call is the SNAP test scores. We do not consider sectional scores or percentages but only consider the percentiles score of a candidate. Our selection process would typically consist of a group activity or a group task followed by a personal interview.
Upon completion of the selection process, SCMHRD compiles the scores and comes up with a merit list offering merit candidates to accept the admissions offer and pay the first installment of the course fee. Reservation for seats are applied as per SIU’s guidelines.
