International Chapter

ALUMNI

MICA endeavours to keep in touch with its alumnus by having annual Alumni Meets. Chapters have also been set up at several places, outside Ahmedabad which have a number of people from the institute settled in or around.

The Annual Alumni Meet for 2007 was held from 26th to 28th January, 2007 at MICA Ahmedabad. About a hundred participants from all over the country revisited the campus. They represented the diverse industries where they have established themselves.

Several MICA alumni hold key positions in global companies like L’Oreal, Starcom, HLL, HT Media, Leo Burnett, Cavin Care, JWT, IBM, TNS, FCB Ulka, IMRB, Maersk Line, E & Y, History Channel and Radio Mirchi, to name a few.

The meet provided a platform for ideas and introspection towards keeping the curriculum robust and contemporary to suit the current trends in the various industries where MICA graduates usually find themselves immediately or a few short years after graduation. Several alumnus also welcomed the idea of returning to campus as guest/ visiting faculty to share their learning with the current batch of MICAns.

Chapter meets were held at the following places:

Mumbai: August 26, 2006. About 115 alumni across all batches attended the meet. They hold senior positions in companies such as Blowplast, ICICI Bank, Mudra, Starcom, L’Oreal etc.

Bangalore: November 11, 2006. Since it was a rainwashed evening the turnout was thin. The participants now worked in HLL, IIM, Cricinfo, HP Global, Genpac etc.

Delhi: October 14, 2006. The participants from companies like Euro RSCG, JWT, Research International, Initiative Media, Citi Finance, IMRB International etc. etc.

Alumni chapters in other cities in India and overseas are in the offing and will depend on the number of participants there. To participate in the Alumni Chapter Meets please contact:
