Hi Adi,

In media companies, there are two types of recruiters. One is the media owners, like satellite channels, radio stations, print - newspapers, magazines etc. They recruit MICAns for Marketing, Brand Management type of functions. The others are the media agencies like Mindshare, Starcom, Madison, Maxus etc who do the difficult work for media planning, buying, strategies for the clients and work closely with the media owners and clients.

CNBC, VIACOM18, NDTV, Hindustan Times, TOI, Radio Mirchi, Jagran Group all of them regularly recruit from MICA. So do all media agencies for planning and strategy functions.

Sir there's a lot to ask about MICA.

Firstly, The fees for the two year programme as a whole including hostel , mess etc.

Secondly, Is there any chance of I being able to mould my career to commentary. Because commentary is nothing but communications. So can anything of that sort can be brought about?

Thirdly, does Mica accepts previous year's score ? I had a misconception last year that MICA takes 99%ile in Verbal ability

Thank you so much .

Corrections in the first line.
'Mam' and not 'sir'.
Apologies at my end

Hi,

CCC, as you know is a six month programme in Crafting Creative Communication - preparing you for a career in copy writing / art direction. For art direction, you do need educational background in fine/applied art.

You can do both CCC and PGPCM, one after the other. A student of mine from 2004 batch had done that.

CCC helps you prepare a portfolio and supports placement efforts. However, there is no active placement cell like that of PGPCM.

Good luck

Hi Amit,

I will start with third question first, for strategic reasons.

MICA takes three years' course for GMAT. Not so for CAT. Verbal was NOT 99 percentile.

Harsha Bhogale did that. He didn't come to MICA though, nor did he use Fair & Lovely, I am sure. For being a commentator, the skill sets required are different. We don't teach that at MICA. I hope I have got your question right!

Fees for the two year programme - including tuition fees, books and reading material, library and internet facilities, hostel acco and mess charges etc for the current batch is Rs.10 lakhs.
