Level Up PR, one of India’s leading public relations firms, has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the University Institute of Media Studies (UIMS), Chandigarh University, to strengthen industry-linked learning in public relations, media, and strategic communication. Signed at Chandigarh University on July 9, the partnership aims to give students practical industry exposure through internships, live projects, expert mentoring, workshops, and guest lectures, helping them build successful careers in the communications industry.
The MoU was signed at the Office of the Registrar, Chandigarh University, in the presence of senior representatives from both organizations. Through this collaboration, students will gain hands-on experience in Public Relations, Brand Communication, Digital Media, and Strategic Communication while learning directly from industry professionals.

Speaking on the occasion, Sahil Sachdeva, Founder & CEO of Level Up PR, said, Learning doesn’t end in the classroom. Students need opportunities to work on real projects, interact with industry professionals, and understand what the profession truly demands. We are excited to partner with Chandigarh University and support students as they prepare for successful careers in communications.
Sharing his experience of the visit, Sachdeva added, “It was a pleasure visiting Chandigarh University and signing this MoU, marking the beginning of a meaningful collaboration between academia and industry. We had insightful discussions with Prof. (Dr.) S.S. Sehgal and Prof. (Dr.) Ashita Chadha on bridging classroom learning with real-world PR and communication practices. We also exchanged views on how the PR industry is evolving and the skills future professionals will need. Through this partnership, we look forward to mentoring students, conducting training sessions, and creating exciting career opportunities for the talented students of Chandigarh University.”
The partnership marks another step in Level Up PR‘s commitment to nurturing young talent and strengthening the connection between education and industry. By combining academic learning with practical experience, the collaboration is expected to help students become industry-ready professionals while creating meaningful opportunities for learning, mentorship, and career growth in the field of public relations and communications.
