PG Diploma in Human Resource Management at Gujarat University

Gujarat University, Ahmedabad, Gujarat, offers PG Diploma in Human Resource Management as a 1-year postgraduate degree.

Expect to spend most of your time on hiring, training, pay and performance, labour law and organisational behaviour.

Gujarat University is a other institute, founded in 1950. This page brings together what is on record for this course at Gujarat University — fees, seats, eligibility, the admission route and placements — so you can judge it before you apply.

Most PGD programmes follow a similar pattern: the first year builds the foundations, the middle years go deep into the subject, and the final year is given over to electives, a major project and usually an internship.

Here that means hiring, training, pay and performance, labour law and organisational behaviour. Typical first jobs: HR executive, recruiter or talent manager.

The exact syllabus is set by the college or its affiliating university and changes from year to year, so ask Gujarat University for the current semester-wise plan.

Gujarat University has not published a fee for PG Diploma in Human Resource Management on our record yet. When you ask, ask for the total across all 1 years — not just the first-year figure — and whether hostel and exam fees are included.

In most years, admission follows these steps:

1. Check that you meet the eligibility above.
2. Keep your qualifying-exam marksheet ready; seats are filled on merit.
3. Apply to Gujarat University on its website (www.nimcj.org) or through the enquiry form on this page, and take part in counselling if a state or central body runs it.
4. Once you are offered a seat, verify your documents (marksheets, ID, category certificate if any) and pay the admission fee to confirm it.
