All major corporate hospitals, healthcare IT companies and NGO’s are in Bangalore. Choosing a healthcare management is not a problem, but one should decide first, definitely commit to work hard, need not get confused, may be plan to become entrepreneur later’. To questions from participants on ‘placements’, Dr Richa said – IIHMR Bangalore provides 100% placement support and more vacancies are generated than the number of students, ‘we have to perform well’.
