TRANSCRIPT
In your hands, dear students, more than in ours, will rest the final success or failure of your course. Since this
institute was founded, each set of students has contributed to make NiA what it is today. Their success stands testimony to the quality, in their laurels you will
shine.
There are multiple challenges ahead – not just in your studies but in the civic life that surrounds you. Once you
complete the program and go forth in a career, you too will face a struggle against the common enemies of man:
tyranny, poverty, disease, and war itself.
Will you unite against these enemies to emerge as a strong and global community that can assure a more fruitful life
for all mankind? Will you join in a social effort to become a stronger society?
In the long history of the world, only a few generations have been granted the role of defending freedom in its
hour of maximum danger. Let us not shirk from this responsibility - welcome it. The energy, the faith, the
devotion which we bring to this endeavor will light our country and all who serve it - and the glow from that fire
can truly light the world.
Ask not what your country will do for you, but what together we can do for our country.
Democracy is not just about an individual's rights, it is about each individual's rights. Freedom is not about some of us being more free than others but for each one to be
free. Secularism is not just my right to practice my religion but for each one's right to do so.
Let us change our own self from this day onwards and practice a modern, democratic, free and secular life.
Welcome to NiA
Inspired by the Inaugural Address of JFK, January 20th, 1961
Mission Statement

This is possible thanks to the finest of industry practitioners developing, delivering and assessing all courses on one hand as well as the overwhelming support from the media industry at large - both in offering the best of placements as well as support thru 'live projects;,case studies and function specific seminars/workshops.
On behalf of Nia, I look forward to meeting you all in person – and can assure you of an unique and enriching experience with us.

NiA classes will be held at 9, Institutional Area, Lodhi Road from the sessions in 2012.
Our endeavor to provide contemporary education and training to young entrants on the threshold of a career continues as we complete an exciting and eventful sixteen years.
Advertising industry is the best kept secret – the fact that it is Advertisers that control the business of Media, Events and Public Relations escapes most people. Advertising agencies offer great careers and a chance to cross over to the corporate side at all times and levels. It is also great fun working in Advertising as insiders will tell you. Yes the hours are tough, starting salaries are low but so it is in Consulting, Medicine, Accounting and in Law!
Some of the world’s most successful people work in Advertising or have emerged out of it, as well as it has given refuge to those that did not do well anywhere else in the world but sparkled in this industry.
There is a 1500+ and counting strong NiA alumni out there working and leading the industry at various levels, some of them right at the top. In the past sixteen years, we have received a tremendous amount of support from people in the advertising and media business, and on behalf of all of us at NiA, I thank them sincerely.
Welcome toNational Institute of Advertising.
Namrata SuriFounder Director & Chairperson
If you think you are creative, NiA provides you an excellent platform to explore your creative skills.
This department ensures that we look at the creative potential of every student and streamline them to work in the competitive field of communication design.
Both Advertising and Design require a specific skillset and talent. We nurture you, train your drawing skills, color sense, aesthetics, software skills and through all this rigorous training, we ensure that you reach a platform of high creativity.
If you are interested, do drop in for counseling and prepare to take a creative test. If you fulfill our criteria, leave the rest to us.

One, the courseware is designed to keep in mind the industry requirements. Regular reviews keep the curricula in step with the changes that make this environment so dynamic.
Two, the regular faculty itself comprises working professionals. Unlike elsewhere, they do not show up once-in-a-while.
Three, it is essentially the result of first two points, our students end up getting good breaks in nice places.
But the nicest of all reasons, to me personally, is that most of our students keep in touch and drop-by often, even much after they pass out.

NiA invites students for a post graduate program of knowledge practices immersed in real-world challenges. Come into a diverse community of colleagues and faculty reflecting a world of talent, beliefs and backgrounds. Into an intense period of personal and professional transformation that prepares you for challenges in any functional area - anywhere in the world.
To experience the programs at NiA is to go inside the issues that matter - and to reach inside yourself for the strength, skills, and confidence you will develop to face them. In every case, class, event and activity, you are asked not only to study leadership, but to demonstrate it.
This is how studying at NiA makes a world of a difference for you:
Learning in practice:
It's one thing to learn theory from lectures and textbooks. It's something else entirely to learn how to make decisions in the face of conflicting data, complex politics and intense time and fiscal pressures - then defend your choices among peers as motivated and intelligent as you are. That's exactly what you'll do at NiA. Delivered through in-depth, case-method learning that puts you in the role of the decision maker. Field studies, career treks and in-depth immersions under experts and industry luminary faculty guidance take students to the frontiers of new markets, practices and technologies across the globe.
An engaging community:
At its core, NiA student life is built around an intense experience that's invigorated with year-wide events, student activities, guest speakers, seminars and so much more. In fact, many of our student profiles share a common theme: how the students have not only found a community of support, but a close-knit network of friendships that last a lifetime.
Everything on the NiA campus - from our multimedia classrooms to our happy atmosphere is
designed to encourage community collaboration for a richer learning experience.
Networking opportunities:
Many of our postgraduate students will have significant experience in the workplace and therby combining study with their careers. This means you can benefit from the networking opportunities provided by meeting other students with managerial and creative positions in organizations in NCR and beyond.
Benefits to your organization (for working professionals): If you are combining study with work, or taking a break from work to study, here are just a few of the benefits that you could bring to your employer through the NiA programs:
— Your constructive and creative input on day-to-day issues will benefit from your thorough understanding of overall business strategy
— Your increased knowledge will make you better equipped to deal with the complex facets of modern management
— Your holistic appreciation of your company will enable you to contribute to achieving a sustainable competitive position in today's changing business environment
— Your ability to lead, manage and motivate other staff members will be enhanced
— Through the Specialization project, your company can gain a valuable piece of consultancy/research that is tailored specifically to its needs
The institute's NCR location and excellent transport links makes it easy to reach.

The IXP Objective: Learning through Context - To develop outstanding leaders that will make a difference in the world demands a business education and perspective that is both practical and far-reaching. NBS's International Experience program (IXP) maximizes participant-centered learning experiences by integrating the school's distinctive case method of teaching with field-based learning activities that integrate first and second-year students during a semester break.
The cornerstone of the IXP is the expertise of faculty leaders who develop program content around key teaching objectives reached through global field-based learning activities.
An IXP typically is comprised of a three-part learning experience:
* Pre-departure activities to introduce and prepare students for the IXP
* An intensive multi-day Industry Experience during the break that may combine travel, meetings, and student projects
* A post-program opportunity for sharing lessons learned with the wider NBS and Industry communities
The IXP Difference: Not a Trek - The IXP differs from the NBS Career Treks in several important ways. First and foremost, faculty leaders develop program content and lead each IXP. Second, faculty leaders' educational objectives shape IXP itineraries and activities. Third, faculty leaders commit to the pedagogy of experiential learning, meaning that the IXP aims to go beyond creating educated tourists, thereby facilitating the transmission of key ideas in managerial practice through learning activities. Fourth is the related commitment to help students learn by completing work projects and then sharing their experiences with the wider NBS community.
For the class of 2011-13, NBS is pleased to offer the following IXPs:
* London: Financial Management in challenging times
* Oxford: International Trade Practices relearned
* New York: Meeting the emerging new world order
* China: Understanding a Business Environment
* Europe: Europe Divided? The Economic Geography of Business
* India: Incredible India - New Opportunities and New Challenges
* Israel: The Entrepreneurship and Venture Capital "Miracle"
* Brazil: Business Opportunities in Emerging Markets
Note: For select students only – on additional costs or industry scholarships
When you reach for the stars you may not quite get one, but you won't come up with a handful of mud either.
