IIMT Greater Noida has a very amazing campus life!

Placements: I am a new joiner, and placements were the first thing that my family and I checked before joining the college. Many big names from the media field are always coming here for recruitment. Internship opportunities are provided from the second year, but we are often taken for college visits.

IIMT Greater Noida has the best event calendar.

Placements: Though it is my 1st semester here, I know that placements of IIMT Group of Colleges, Greater Noida are the best for the Journalism course. The highest package, from what I learn, is around 12 LPA for our stream, and with the payment rising in the private media sector, it will definitely increase by 2029, which is my passing year.

Experience at my college.

Placements: Top recruiters are Infosys, Wipro, TCS, IBM, and Tech Mahindra. The placement cell is actively involved in helping students with internships and jobs. During internships, you can gain a lot of industry knowledge, which helps in the future. But placements depend on the eligibility criteria of the company and the students' abilities as well.
