Mr. Manas Makani

With over 13 years of industry experience, I currently teach Marketing and allied subjects within the Communication domain to both undergraduate and postgraduate students. My teaching philosophy focuses on fostering critical thinking, analytical skills, and industry readiness, enabling students to build a strong conceptual foundation before entering the professional world. Through a blend of academic rigor and practical insights, I strive to create engaging learning experiences that bridge theory and practice. Beyond teaching, I lead the institute's Social Media initiatives, overseeing content strategy, audience engagement, and digital outreach.

Under my leadership, the institute has strengthened its online visibility and established new benchmarks in content performance, engagement, and community building across platforms, particularly Instagram. I also serve as the Head of the Sports Committee, where I am responsible for promoting a vibrant sporting culture on campus. This involves planning and executing sports-related activities, encouraging student participation, and creating opportunities that contribute to the holistic development of learners. As a member of the Admissions Team, I contribute to the institution's admissions strategy, working closely with university leadership and college management to strengthen outreach, positioning, and student recruitment efforts.

Additionally, I am an active member of the Placement Committee, where I conduct workshops and mentoring sessions focused on interview preparation, résumé building, personal branding, and professional readiness, helping students transition successfully into the workforce. My academic responsibilities also include guiding postgraduate students in their dissertation and thesis work, supporting them through the research process from conceptualization to completion. Furthermore, I am currently involved in the development of a new course in Sports Journalism, aimed at equipping students with contemporary knowledge and skills at the intersection of sports, media, and communication.
