St Pauls Institute of Communication Education is one of the few institutes in Mumbai, exclusively dedicated to media studies. We have been fortunate to attract top practitioners from the industry to come and impart their practical knowledge to the students. Our institute – through its focused media studies approach- prepares students to be industry ready.
While we guarantee internship opportunities to all our students as part of the course, most of our students also get placed at the agencies they intern with.
St Pauls Institute of Communication Education postgraduate alumni have interned with and found work in the field of advertising, public relations, marketing, design, digital publishing as well as ad and film production and other new age operations such as event planning and management and artiste management.
