Students who successfully complete the required tasks will receive certificates. Students will be able to interact with the leadership of both organisations through master courses or webinars. 120 Media Collective will also provide internships to final-year students who have excelled in their studies.
ASCI, which was founded in 1985, investigates complaints against advertisements in all media and ensures that they follow its Code for Self-Regulation, which requires advertisements to be legal, ethical, honest, and true, not hazardous or destructive, and to compete fairly. ASCI will also undertake an e-learning programme for third-year students to familiarize them with the Code for Self-Regulation as part of the agreement.
“At NMIMS, we try to build partnerships and collaborations that offer value for our students and expose them to fresh and real-world learnings that benefit them in their future careers,” stated Dr. Mukesh Sharma, Dean, NMIMS School of Branding and Advertising, when discussing the partnerships. “As a result, our collaboration with 120 Media Collective and ASCI will be extremely beneficial in allowing students to experience the branding and advertising business firsthand and have a better grasp of the industry's subtleties and current trends.”, he continued.

Placements: My course in particular, did not have any placement cell until 2 months ago, they have just started the process. So none of the students have been placed yet. There has been no information given to us about placements. There has been no package that has been offered yet but in 1 year it will pick up.
Placements: About 20% students are placed as till now only one batch has passed out during covid so there was no physical visit of any company in college. The average package is 4-5 Lac and the highest is 7-8 lac. One has to do internship on there own as college does provide specific internships.
Placements: 95% of student were placed from my course, the highest package was 8.5 Lacs per annum and the lowest package received was 3.5 Lacs pr annum. 100% students got internships from various institutions like Ogilvy and Rotary club. Top roles offered are creative head, primary research for Advertising etc.
Placements: SOBA functions a little differently than other placement cells in other colleges. We get live projects from companies per semester as a batch and some are selected or opt for permanent roles. They either give you the experience to build resume. There hasn't been a placement drive yet because the first batch to pass out will be the '22 batch.
Placements: It is hard to say about the placements as we are officially the first batch with a degree to pass out from this course. But regardless of that we are getting positive feedback about our placements and are told we are guaranteed placements.
