College of Events and Media is a private institute, founded in 2004. This page brings together what is on record for this course at College of Events and Media — fees, seats, eligibility, the admission route and placements — so you can judge it before you apply.

Most UGD programmes follow a similar pattern: the first year builds the foundations, the middle years go deep into the subject, and the final year is given over to electives, a major project and usually an internship.

Here that means how organisations run: accounting, marketing, finance, human resources, operations and business communication, usually with case studies and an internship. Typical first jobs: management trainee, business development, sales, marketing or operations roles. Many graduates also go on to a master's degree.

The exact syllabus is set by the college or its affiliating university and changes from year to year, so ask College of Events and Media for the current semester-wise plan.
