However, I would like to add that the best college/course is on job learning and the hunger to grow by reading magazines, design books and blogs that feature parties, events, and weddings. Stay hungry, stay foolish!

The course includes 1 month assured internship and 100% placement assistance in companies like Yash Raj, Balaji Telefilms, Colors, Sony, Wizcraft, Star, BMW etc. Students of Indian School of Media have worked on events like IIFA Awards, Filmfare Awards, Big Boss, Metallica Concert, Sunburn, Global Citizen Festival, Miss India, MTV Roadies etc.

In terms of placements and course structure, NIEM (Event Management Institute Mumbai, Best Event Management College, National Institute of Event Management in India) is a good option. However, the placements would be junior level placements with a very basic salary. They have really tried to make the courses industry oriented.

Unfortunately, in India, we still do not recognize Event Management as an official Industry, mostly because of its unorganized structure. This ultimately makes it difficult for an institute to design a course that will cater to the growing need of qualified professionals in Event Management.

If you are thinking of pursuing EM seriously, then try and get a job while you study EM in NIEM or any other institute. Actual on-field experience is what will help you in this field.

P.S.- I have done a Diploma from NIEM and went on to complete an MBA afterwards. MBA got me a descent job in an Event Management company and my diploma helps me perform better than others.

They are all the same.
I don't think an individual needs to do a degree for Event Management.
Personal opinion - Get a internship or entry level job at an event management company all you need to learn is practical/Operational stuff.There's no theory of event management to learn.Rather than that go for an MBA in strategy or Marketing. this way you'll not constrain yourself & your horizon will be wide enough. Getting an Event management degree will only narrow your career path.

I am no phantom. Speaking out of personal experience.
