IIM Kozhikode Director Professor Debashis Chatterjee advised students to evaluate management institutions based on campus culture, faculty access, and peer learning rather than brand rankings alone.
Professor Chatterjee highlighted that students must develop emotional quotient, adaptability, resilience, and communication alongside academic qualifications to succeed in rapidly changing job markets.
IIM Kozhikode operates its academic framework under three pillars—authenticity, sustainability, and fulfilment—and runs an MBA in Liberal Studies and Management combining humanities with business education.
