The IIM Kozhikode – Kochi Campus is delighted to introduce the newly inducted Junior Student Council Members and Class Representatives of the current EPGP batch. This dynamic team embodies the spirit of leadership, collaboration, and service that defines the IIMK community.

Elected through a democratic process outlined in the Student Constitution of IIMK, these leaders exemplify the Institute’s core values of integrity, collaboration, and service.

The Student Council acts as the collective voice of the student community — liaising with the administration and faculty, facilitating constructive feedback, coordinating academic and professional initiatives, and ensuring that every student’s perspective is heard.

The Class Representatives serve as the vital bridge between students and faculty. They coordinate academic operations, gather and channel feedback, promote peer learning, and uphold discipline and decorum in all academic settings.

Together, the new Council and CRs embody the vibrant, inclusive, and participative spirit of IIMK Kochi. Their enthusiasm and commitment will play a key role in strengthening collaboration, enhancing student engagement, and driving new initiatives that enrich the EPGP experience.

Congratulations to all newly elected members!

Wishing them great success as they lead with purpose, uphold the values of democracy and excellence, and continue building a stronger IIMK Kochi community.

BEL is undeniably the longest standing client of IIMK. This MoU also marks the start of a one-of-a-kind diploma programme (PPGD) tailored exclusively to BEL. The MoU is also a testimony of classic account management by IIM-K team; the faculty conducts a large number of client location programs at BEL each year, more so by Kochi Campus delivering three brilliantly curated one-year certificate Programmes, which fosters a high level of trust and understanding between the two institutions, making IIMK a default option for the marriage.

There is enough reason for the Kochi team to be proud of this 🤗 🙌 💪 💯 👨‍🎓 ☺️. All cheers and respect to BEL leadership for the vision and the commitment to fostering its people force
