Hi,
Annapurna International School of Film and Media is one good college in Hyderabad for pursuing Media Management.

Hi Trisha,
No, there is no entrance exam for MA in Entertainment, Media and Advertising in the University of Mumbai. The admissions are merit-based in this course.

Hi Yash, I would say, you should go for IP University ad their course curriculum is more professionally designed. Some of the IPU's colleges like Vivekananda Institute of Professional Studies, Jagannath International Management School, Maharaja Agrasen etc. Are great and will help you in placements too.

Hi Rahul, NIEM is one of the Asia's first and best event management institute. They offer courses in Mumbai, Ahmedabad, Kolhapur, Pune, Odisha and Jodhpur. The institute offers DEM (Diploma in Event Management) with a duration of 11 months. It is a part time course and any candidate who has completed class 12 in any discipline is eligible to apply for the course. The highlights of this course are they let you learn at your convenient timings. This will help to do your graduation side by side too. This Diploma will be an added advantage if you further pursue your education in MBA in event management, marketing, advertising, media etc.

Hi Sashidhar!
I would suggest you to pursue Mass Communication first so that you learn about other skills like advertising and PR as well, which are very critical to be a successful Event Professional. Once you have completed your graduation, you can opt for post graduation in Event Management. There are courses like MBA in Event Management, MA in Events and PR. MA In Event Marketing etc that will help you achieve your goal. Also, keep applying to various event companies to understand the nature of work thoroughly and inculcate the necessary skills.
