Weekend Classes = Zero Career Break
Classes run on weekends at the Kochi campus, so you don't have to choose between your paycheck and your degree. Heads up: there's no hostel facility, so plan your stay if you're not based in Kochi.
Cohort Size
Small batch means tighter networking and better faculty access.
The verdict
Good fit
This programme is tailor-made for working professionals who want the IIM Kozhikode brand without quitting their job. The 12-month weekend format, ₹20L average CTC, and small 60-seat cohort offer strong ROI if you can self-fund ₹14L and manage the commute to Kochi. Skip it if you're after a residential campus vibe, scholarships, or a hyper-niche specialisation.
