PGP MCMM – Next-Gen Digital Marketing (AI-Integrated)

The Sharpening Process is the stage where students consolidate everything they have learned across all semesters like digital marketing, branding, storytelling, content creation, media planning, production, consumer insights, writing, research, and strategic communication and refine it into real professional expertise. During this phase, students practice repeatedly, receive detailed feedback, rebuild campaigns, rework content pieces, analyse successful industry cases, and strengthen both their creative and analytical thinking. They also learn how to integrate AI tools for idea generation, content enhancement, data interpretation, and workflow efficiency without becoming dependent on them. This stage sharpens their execution skills, improves confidence, builds industry discipline, and ensures that every student emerges polished, industry-ready, and fully prepared for internships and final placements.
