2 Year Post Graduate Diploma in Management- Communications (PGDM-C)
Admissions Open for PGDM-C 2013-2015

MICA's Flagship PGDM-C
MICA's Post-graduate Programme Diploma in Management (Communications) has made a remarkable pace for itself since its inception in 1994. The active PGDM (Communications) has evolved into one of the premier programmes in the country, endorsed by 100 per cent campus placements with the best corporate houses in India and in recent times, abroad. MICA's stringent selection norms coupled with the rigour of the curriculum ensure a highly committed, creatively and innovatively anchored, professionally oriented communications manager skilled in the practice, development and management of communications for industry and society. This programme is approved by the All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE) and Association of Indian University (AIU) which equates it with an MBA degree.

Who are we looking for?
Stringent quality control of our output begins with tight quality control of our input which is why it is more than a commonplace matter to get a place at MICA. In addition to putting the aspiring communications professionals who come to MICA through a tough academic routine, they are also encouraged and advised to practice the art of self-development.

Over the years, the MICAn profile has changed. There has been a significant increase in number of students from engineering and management education backgrounds. The number of people with diverse work experience (ranging from the software industry to financial portfolio management) has meant more productive class discussions. Students at MICA come from some of India's best-known educational institutions. Prestigious colleges like St. Stephens, Lady Sriram College, Delhi College of Engineering (NSIT), Sriram College of Commerce (SRCC)among others are represented in MICA.

A quick look at our institute's recruitment track record and the profile of our current students should be sufficient to justify our pride in our young men and women.
