The Delhi School Of Communication Conducts E-Orientation For 27th Batch

August 16, 2021: The 27th batch of the Post-Graduate Diploma Programme in Communication at DSC -The Delhi School of Communication was formally inaugurated. It was a virtual inauguration ceremony from 10:00 am to 12:30 pm, in keeping with today's digital trend. The auspicious day began with a virtual rendition of ‘Ganesha Vandana.

Manasvi Rasgotra, Director and CEO, MS Multitrade, Delhi, was the Chief Guest, and V Bhaskar Preenja, Sr. Vice President and General Manager, Contract India Advertising Pvt. Ltd. was the Guest of Honour. Following that, PGDPC 26th batch hosted a formal induction event, which was followed by an ice-breaking session.

Rasgotra acknowledged that “a paradigm shift will be required – from teaching to learning, concepts to application of concepts, and from getting to aspiring for results,” as he welcomed the students to a new reality. Moving from "linear thinking to multidimensional thinking, identifying and expanding on your skills, learning to work as "teams," focusing on being task-oriented, and being hard-working and looking outside comfort zones" are some of the suggestions he made. He also outlined some broad routes that the students may go – there is no alternative for hard work, cultivate an appetite for failure, fully comprehend ‘success' so that it can be replicated, and the world is your playground, which he expounded on by sharing his personal experiences.

Preenja noticed that technology was propelling the globe forward in recent years, and that the epidemic had ushered in a wave of newer ways and processes in virtually every part of our existence. “In this fast-paced digital economy, we need to be quick, agile, and constantly master the latest tools and platforms,” he said in the business world. We've always known that our learning curve should never plateau, but in today's world, we understand how critical it is to keep it moving forward. However, don't get overwhelmed with this,” he added. Because there is one constant in the midst of all this constant flux and change.”

Itika Juval received the Semester Scholarship for Semester two. Drishti Gupta won first place in the Admission Scholarships for an essay on "The New Age Husband - Advertising Perspective," followed by Riya Saha in second place and Nikita Pandey in third place.

The day came to a close with an ice-breaker session for the freshmen who were about to start on their new adventure.

Delhi School of Communication Hosts Its Second Annual E-Convocation 2021

July 19, 2021: The Second Annual e-Convocation for the 25th batch of Post Graduate Diploma Programme in Communication (PGDPC 25) was held at the DSC -The Delhi School of Communication, Saket. Babita Baruah, Managing Partner, GTB Global Team Blue, was the Chief Guest, while Anshu Patni Singhi, Founder, CHNO Media, was the Guest of Honour. Professor Ramola Kumar, the Dean, publicly declared the end of the course for the institute's 25th cohort. As they entered into the office, defining the new normal, all best wishes were conveyed to the groups.

DSC has maintained its reputation of placing graduates in top marketing, public relations, and advertising firms such as Group M, Omnicom Media Group, Dentsu X, MSL, DDB Mudra, Media Mantra, Grey Cells, FCB, Grapes Digital, Hakuhodo, Rep India, The Communication Council, and The Free Press Journal.

Babita Baruah stated that today's Gen Z is spontaneous, and work cultures are being re-imagined to prepare for an environment that continues to encourage this attitude. She shared some advice on how ‘informed spontaneity’ might help us balance out the edges, explaining that spontaneity is also a duty. ‘Informed spontaneity starts with a clear goal setting," she said. “A SWOT analysis of your own. Identifying reliable sources of information and opinion. Operating on a large playing field with flexible and fluid boundaries that allow for complete shifts if needed. It also necessitates self-reflection. Informed spontaneity stimulates bold thinking and action, which is a prerequisite today in a professional and commercial world that is changing and evolving at the speed of light. It is critical to comprehend these shifts, as well as the new career and business opportunities and competencies that come with them.”, she continued. She underlined that the values of honesty, kindness, and empathy are future drivers, noting that our journeys would be beneficial if we stick to a solid value system.

Anshu Patni Singhi, who was motivating the students, recalled her convocation nearly 17 years ago, when she thought she was ready to take on the world. “Your career is never what you plan – it's the trade-offs you make for yourself between comfort and danger, between money and looking beyond money, and a variety of other factors. And that was the train I boarded - the train of CHOICES that would be provided to me for the rest of my life, as well as the EXPERIMENTS I would undertake as a result of those choices.” Her career path also had its ups and downs, as she later ventured into entrepreneurship, and she offered this piece of advice: "On this train, however, there is one thing that will become your most valuable asset - your fellow passengers or the people you meet. Make sure you value and learn from them, as well as providing value to them, and you'll find that these folks may occasionally come to help you push the train. So, when you get on this train, please select what you enjoy, what offers you progress over what is fashionable!”, she continued

The event was held virtually due to the continuing pandemic. The students were given their PGDPC 25 programme certificates, and it was time to say their goodbyes. The PGDPC programme at DSC is a two-year programme that provides students with formal education and professional training in all aspects of mass communication, including Digital Marketing, Advertising, Public Relations, Film Marketing, Entertainment, Branding, Market Research, and Event Management.

Our college has amazing teachers and greatly focuses on placements and studies.

Placements: Nearly 100% of the students from every batch got placed in top PR and advertising companies like MSL, JWT (Wunderman Thompson), Hakuhodo, Lowe Lintas, etc. Every student will surely get 2 internships as it is included in the course curriculum. Internships provide an in-depth application of theoretical knowledge which we gained from the course. Students do internships during college times, so they combine actual work experience with studies.

Good internship opportunities to experience the Industry better.

Placements: The college makes sure that all its students are placed during both the summers and the winters. The college guarantees 100% placement but the quality of it depends on your personal skills and hence it's not really easy to define the average package.
