Life opportunities and exposure at MICA.
Placements: At MICA, the whole batch was placed on time without any cap or anything. We saw a good rise in the average stipend for this year and it was the best as compared to the history of MICA. Though we are not allowed to share specific details I can just assure you that at MICA, you will get the best of the best marketing roles in the best of the best companies like HUL, ITC, Google, IBM, Amul, etc.
Infrastructure: The facilities that we get on campus are great, we have everything essential that is needed. Moreover, one thing that makes the place even better is the culture that mica holds. We have various events in place and best of the best cultural and marketing fest as well.
Faculty: Great faculty, finely designed courses, and best of the best visiting faculty and industry experts visit the campus on a regular basis. We get to learn a lot from these experiences. The best part about MICA and its faculty is that they all are experts in their domain, and they all also have industry experience.
Other: It would be unfair to mention things hear, the best way is to come to the campus, and find out about the things yourself.

Good placements, infrastructure, faculty members, and best people.
Placements: 100% placements are offered. The placement committee works hard to ensure every student is placed. No forced opt-out like in a lot of IIMs and private colleges. Quality of placement with respect to marketing is great. You get exposure to good roles in good companies in both internships and final placements. Companies do trust and respect the MICAN edge.
Infrastructure: Hostels are a little old, no AC in rooms (but that also leads to people changing out in common places a lot instead of just staying in your AC room), and sometimes the wall falls if you close the door strongly. But beautiful campus you will wake up to peacocks and langoors. MICAN walks are to die for. The place is a lake in monsoon. New hostels are being constructed so let's see how that turns out.
Faculty: Good professors are a mixed bag of honesty. Some are great, some we can do without. The curriculum is changing to adapt to what other schools are doing. MICA is losing its USP by reducing culture, media, and communication subjects. PGDM is focusing more and more on data and AI, and PGDM-C is also incorporating it slowly.
Other: Our college has a great culture. MICAN culture is something else. You will not find anything like this in any other college.

Our college provides excellent placements and wonderful teaching.
Placements: The placement process went quite smoothly and efficiently in our batch. Almost 90% of the batch got a job through the campus placement process. The top recruiting companies were ITC, Tata Group, Reliance Industries, Nestle, etc. The highest salary package offered was 12 LPA, and the average salary package offered is 6 LPA. The lowest salary package offered was 3.5 LPA. Almost 99% of the batch managed to get internships in similar organisations.
Infrastructure: Our college has a well-maintained infrastructure facility that consists of the college building, classrooms, laboratories, and canteen. The mess and canteen food are hygienic and affordable. The hostel facility is also maintained properly and all the rooms are neat and clean. There is an encouragement given to and special provisions for sports activities too.
Faculty: Professors are very supportive, helpful, highly qualified, and knowledgeable. They are the masters of their subjects and the teaching quality is excellent. The course curriculum is up-to-date and it made us industry-ready. The semester exams have a moderate to a high level of difficulty and require out-of-the-box thinking and a lot of reading beyond the textbooks.

MICA = 100% Placements With Best Packages.
Placements: MICA is one of the best management institutes which offers various communication-related courses. One of the most surprising factors of MICA is its placement. Every year 100% placement is observed. This can happen because of the reputation of the institute and good alumni network. The highest package at our time was more than 50 Lacs.
Infrastructure: The campus of MICA is very good. Institute provides all the facilities to the students. One can truly enjoy the environment of MICA. Quality of the facilities in the hostel at our time was good. I had never experienced any major problem on the campus in terms of facilities.
Faculty: Course Curriculum at our time was best. And I can guarantee you that it will be the best today also. This is a major advantage of why students can achieve great job opportunities with good pay. Our teachers were teaching us by heart. And also I experienced good quality in their teaching and also in visiting teachers.
Other: After being a Computer Engineer, I want to pursue management in my field which can help me in both ways (technical and management), So I chose MICA for this, as it was the only best Institute providing various communication-related courses.
