Assessment

Each of the first five trimesters has a written examination and also individual and group projects that are graded.

Each of the first five trimesters has 20 credits consisting of 15 credits for classroom work and 5 credits for studio work. Summer internship has 10 credits and the graduation project to be completed in the sixth trimester has 20 credits. The two-year course thus has a total of 130 credits.

Learning Resources

Learning resources for the course includes a studio complex equipped with state-of-the-art shooting and post-production facilities, a well-maintained library of books, periodicals and DVDs of films and TV shows, several auditoria and all class-rooms fitted with video projection facilities and acoustically treated. The School also runs a Film Club with regular screenings of old and new films followed by discussions.

Career Prospects

The Industry

The mass media industry has been growing rapidly in India outpacing the rate of growth in the entire economy.  According to FICCI Price Waterhouse Coopers Study (2006), this sector is expected to grow to Rs 837 billion in 2010 at a compound rate of 19 per cent per annum. Sub-sectors that will have major shares in this business by 2010 are TV (51%), Cinema (18%) and print media (23%).

Talent Gap

Trained manpower in this industry is already in a chronic short supply and the situation is expected to worsen rapidly in the years to come. There are some facilities available for technical training but the quality falls far short of international standards. Management training specifically designed for this industry is almost non-existent in India.

Career Options

The proposed course, PGDM in Communications, will provide students with managerial and business skills as well as creative and technical skills required in the field of mass media. Thus, the course will train students not only in the art and craft of mass media (including TV and Cinema) but also give them a fundamental grounding in management sciences and also insights into the real world business of mass media.

The course is expected to propel students' careers in media industries whether as executives in organizations such as TV channels, production houses, media conglomerates, advertising agencies, etc or as entrepreneurs in their own right making films, documentaries, TV shows, ad-films et al.
