What distinguishes ITM’s ‘Marketing Department’ ?

What distinguishes ITM’s ‘Marketing Department’ and makes it stand apart from other colleges is the nature and execution of the program. The Marketing Dept, believes in the adage of Learning by doing. A heady mix of theoretical as well as experiential exercises characterize the pedagogy of the department. A dynamic syllabus with topics updated according to the industry trends gives the students an edge over others when it comes to industry readiness.
