MIDDS pledges to uplift everyone's career

 

In today’s competitive world, getting quality education is an extremely expensive proposition. Try any stream whether it is MBA or Engineering or upcoming streams like Animation, the course is going to make holes in your pockets. A whole lot of youngsters want to enter into the new field of Animation, Game Design and Interior Design etc. but cannot do so because of the cost factor. If you want to do these courses from a reputed institute, it is going to cost you above 1, 50,000/- which everyone can not afford.

Mumbai based Meteor Institute of Digital Design Studies Pvt. Ltd. (MIDDS) which has 21 branches across the country has decided to come out for the benefit of financially deprived but talented students who want to opt for unconventional career in the field of Animation. When contacted, MIDDS M.D. Satyam Bansal said that India has a lot of talent but it goes unnoticed as the student cannot afford the fees. He further added that MIDDS has pledged to uplift the career of these students as I feel that this is my responsibility towards the society.

He said that we have launched a MIDDS COMPUTER ANIMATION AND MULTIMEDIA PROFESSIONAL (MCAMP) program which is specially designed for students whose gross family income is less than or equal to Rs.15, 000/- per month. We have launched this course on Gandhi Jayanti, the birth date of Mahatma Gandhi who lived his whole life for social cause. The fees for this course is Rs.75,000/- but if any student gets us a certificate from the competent authority like Collector, Sarpanch or gives us an affidavit that his or her gross family income is less than or equal to Rs.15,000/-, we will charge only Rs.50,000/- as the fees.

He also informed that this course is for a period of 12 months and the student will even be doing a project during the course period. This course has been designed in such a way that the student can get a job as a Graphic Designer, as a Web Designer, as an Animator, as an Editor or even as a VFX artist. I was in USA for 9 years but I was always thinking for my country and this was the reason that I started MIDDS three years back. Now by launching this course, I want to pay back what society has given me as my duty towards the society.
