IIM Lucknow Courses 2021

Speaking about the executive programme in Healthcare Management, IIM-L officials said that the need for such a course was required after the care delivery became a big challenge considering the shortage of qualified medical, nursing, diagnostic and managerial workforce in the healthcare sector apart from underdeveloped infrastructure. 

As a part of the executive programme, there will be discussions on global healthcare, emphasis on the Indian healthcare scenario, public health perspectives, and health care system administration.

The directors of the Executive Programme, Professor S Venkataramanaiah and Professor Madhumita Chakraborty said the uniqueness of this executive programme in Healthcare Management is the experiential learning by way of attending immersion programmes and industrial visits to Apollo hospitals. 

Dr Srinivasa Rao Pulijala, CEO of Apollo MedSkills Limited, said that the programme will foster and shape the careers of hundreds of aspirants aspiring to take up leadership roles in the healthcare sector. 

The duration of the programme is 250 learning hours with a recommended schedule of 5-6 hours/week, and it is scheduled to commence from March 2022.
