Dear aspirant,

Heres a list of few colleges that i got off the web

1) IIT Kharagpur

Course:- M.Tech in Media and Sound Engineering

2) ZEE Institute Of Media Arts (ZIMA) Mumbai

Course:- Sound Engineering - 9 months

3) National Institute of Film and Fine Arts NIFFA, Kolkata

4) Government Film & Television Institute in Bangalore

Course:- diploma

5) Film and Television Institute of India, Pune

Course:- Post Graduate Diploma

6) Department of Music, University of Mumbai

6 month course

See out of these i'd say that the IIT course is by default the best followed by the mumbai university course. both these have high name and reputation in india and iit has reputation all over the world.

Also ZEE institute is where you could get more practical knowledge and experience. With that being said these 3 are the best ones i could find.

You job profile would require you to produce music, video, ads and manage sound systems at events or concerts. Basically mostly behind the scene work would have to be handled by you.
