The admission to the P G Programme is through a highly rigorous internationally acclaimed admission test with average selection rate of less than one in hundred candidates.
The P G Programme is highly valued by industry. Leading Indian and foreign companies visit to the Institute to participate in campus placement programme. Looking at the huge demand of the industry for the institute graduates, the intake in the P G Programme has been increased to 300 students from the academic session 2009.
IIM Kozhikode comes forward with new guidelines for admission.
Apart from 50 % of the CAT marks, their continuous performance at the Class 10 and 12 levels along with their work experience in a particular field will also be considered for selection to IIM Kozhikode.
At present 90% of CAT marks are considered for admission at IIMK.
Dr. Debashis Chatterjee, Director has already taken up this matter with the Ministry for Human Resources. Last year 10% preference was given to those who had a work experience of 2 or 3 years. This was found to be successful and hence this new proposal for the change.
The mode of selection will be finally decided by the the last week of February.
