Is event management is a good career for science student if it is so what are the steps and colleges?
Hi Bhavy Sharma,
Event management is possble after any stream in 12th class. If you have science then nearly all the colleges are available to you for nearly all the streams.
First I'll explain you what is event management-
Event Management has all of us have sometime in life had the responsibility of conducting a school quiz program or a college debate. Some of us have also experienced situations when the microphone does not work or the lights go off or the entire program flops due to small mistakes. How do we feel? Embarrassed, humiliated? Today events outside schools & colleges, are more involving the general public. It’s a matter of prestige & credibility that an event is organized very smoothly & effectively.
What do we need to do as an event manager-
We need to take care of Com-peering the event, Preparing the speech, inviting the guests, managing event personnel, Media Study, Analyzing Merits , Costs and Budgets available, Advertisements , Reporting and Review, Press Releases, Press Conferences, Contests and Demos, Event marketing, Accounts, Returns, flow of cash, Post event activities and much more.
Eligibility-
A minimum of pass in +12th. With good knowledge of English. Being a Graduate is required for admissions in the elite colleges.
Courses which one can enroll into-
- MBA in Event Management and PR (2 years long PG course)
- BBA in Event Management and PR (3 years long Bachelor’s Degree course)

- Diploma in Aspects of Media, Marketing and Events (1 year long Diploma course)
- Post Graduate Diploma in Event Management (1 year long PG Diploma course)
- Diploma in Event Management (1 year long Diploma course)
The basic method to get into any course is-
- Get a good score in your class 12th boards so that you can join any college after your 12th.
- Get into your Graduation majorly BEM ( Bachelor in Event Management) or any other but I would suggest you do the diploma couses side by side.
- Now once done with your graduation you should prepare for the CMAT and join a top MBA college or do a PGDM in event management.
Top colleges-
- National Institute of Event Management
- Amity School of Communication, New Delhi
- Apeejay Institute of Mass Communication
- National Institute of Fashion and Events, Jabalpur
- Institute of Mass Communication Film & Television Studies,Kolkata
The Admission on all the above colleges is based on their personal criteria and entrances but I would reccomend having over 60% on all the main subjects and 50% english.
