Remarks

It is the best place to learn filmmaking in my opinion. I had an amazing 10 months here. I am still in touch with some of the faculty as they are great mentors as well. The freinds I made here are now my partners in different spheres of life. The campus is also very vibrant.

Course Curriculum Overview

The course focuses maily on direction and production aspect of film making. There are film screenings, workshops, field trainings and guest lectures. 75% attendance is mandatory in the college. The entire course consists of 27 modules.

Placement Experience

4.5

The courses provided in the college are professional courses. Hence, there is no such placement cell. But every one gets employed or they start their own companies. In my stream many of the students got jobs in production houses.

Fee Structure And Facilities

The total fees of this course is around Rs 3.77 lakhs for 10 months. It was very feasible for me but most people find it expensive because the course is only 10 months long. Though, I can tell from my experience it is worth every rupee.

Campus Life

There are many facilties like media resource center, video making and editing lab etc. The college encourages all kinds of cultural celebrations. There are sports facilties as well in the campus for the students.

Admission

The process to fill the application form is online. The documents are also uploaded. There is an online entrance test which is then followed by a personal/Skype interview. Then the candidates are selected.

Faculty

4.5

The faculty is very experinced. In these type of courses, professional experience really helps and all the faculty members have that experience which shines through in their teachings. They are also very cooperative.

SDA Bocconi Asia Center, IMB ( International Masters in Business)

Reviewed on May 3, 2020

Remarks:

I had honestly applied in only a selected number of colleges, as I was doing really well in my coaching and was always among the top 2. Since, I was expecting a lot from myself, it created performance pressure and I went blank during the actual CAT examination. So SDA bocconi was among the top 2 options that I had. It is less than a decade old and has still managed to provide good placements. The most fascinating part is the entire semester in Bocconi,Milan which is the 21st best college in the world and 7th in Europe. I also spoke to many aluminis and hardly got to hear anything that will stop me from taking admission in SDA bocconi. Plus, the advantage of the college being in a city like Mumbai has it's own advantages.

Remarks:

College management is highly supportive of student needs. The management listens to student issues and tries to solve it with proper thinking and strategy. The college and the composition, though is extremely dynamic and diverse, students live together peacefully in harmony, supporting and helping each other whenever needed. Though being it's initial stages of setup, the college faces certain issues with placements and internships, but slowly with every batchs learnings, these are also being cured. This ensures that students are always on their toes and ready to take on challenges.
