Event Management

Event Management involves the application of project management in the planning, execution, and management of events like business promotions, seminars, symposiums, conferences, fairs, exhibitions, parties, festivals and marriage receptions. The crucial steps are the identification of a potential target audience, planning of a concept or core idea, arranging resources, budget alignment, co-ordination of technical aspects, execution and successful management of the event. Marketing and advertising for publicity are also important steps in event management.

If you are an outgoing person, love being a part of memorable events, are very creative and are interested in organization and management of outdoor events, an MBA in Event Management is the course for you.

Eligibility: Potential candidates should have a minimum of 50% aggregate marks (or equivalent GPA) from a recognized university. Institute-specific entrance examinations, CAT, MAT, XAT, SNAP, NMAT, CMAT, or state-specific examinations are mandatory.
