Srishti Manipal Institute of Art, Design and Technology Bangalore Reviews on Placements, Faculty and Facilities

The course seemed promising with well-made decisions. Real-world application depends on self-work, nobody will feed you with a silver spoon, so if you don't work hard, it's useless. Improvement can be made based on structure as every year things change making the old structure redundant and useless for the existing students. Exams are twice every year with multiple assignments every few weeks, difficulty is subjective.

Srishti does not have a set curriculum. during the first year, students are assigned classes at random. it is called the foundation year and the goal of it is to teach students the basic skills required of a design student. from the second year onwards students are allowed to pick their own classes. curriculum of a certain class is not revealed to the student until they attend the class. there class list comes with breifs about the classes and that is what the choices are made based off of. There are two 'exams' in a year at the end of each semester.

My course have a great structure. 1st year they ask us to do all work. Then we basically gets divided according to our pathways. We get hands on experience in Srishti as we directly start working from 1st year. 2nd year we get to do Internship of 3-5 months with the companies of your choice. 3rd year we have mentor labs and a final capstone project of 6 months where you'll go work in the industry.

My course allows me to be completely focused on my work and portfolio while keeping up with the classes. Which was a deciding factor in choosing this institution and course. My course is designed to be industry focused and when you graduate you will be familiar with the works in the industry giving you an edge. Our exams are focused on the teachings from the previous semester and usually takes place over a week with a set of tasks with clear briefs. Almost recreating the environment one would find working professionally. We could definitely work on interdisciplinary collaboration more and have more focus on grasping the skill intended to teach rather than the outcome desired as the students are still at the end of the day in the institution to learn and won't get another chance at strengthening basics.

The first year is a waste of time and money. The faculty members are highly qualified. The term exams are easy to pass but difficult to top. The teaching method is not structured and faculty is friendly. Permanent faculty: student ratio for UG is 1:15

I'm still in my first year so we don't have specializations this year. In the first year, there are 4 cycles in 2 semesters. We also have 2 workshops in which we all learn a new skill which can be crochet, wood carving, lino printing, etc. Each cycle our classes change so we get to work with different students which is great because we often get a lot of inspiration from seeing others' work. As for the faculty, it's made sure that we always get a facilitator (professor) we haven't gotten before. The class size is 16-25 so the facilitator makes sure that the course helps each student. For example, if there are readings we get them according to our interests which also goes with the course. The faculty members have very different teaching styles, some choose to keep chocolates and cookies and some choose harsh and yet constructive criticism to help you reach your full potential. They're all very approachable & always there when you need help, even the deans. We also have a 1-month interim.

In final year, so many companies are their for campus selection like cgss etc. Almost every student gt the placement I seen our senior students many of got placement. Also, they are working in the same now.

I initially wanted to be a chef and decided for hotel management but before boards I started considering other fields too and design was one of them. I chose to opt for design after the exams ended because it seemed better than Hotel Management in this country.

This has always been my number 1 option, due to the faculty, the environment, the way of teaching, their ideologies and the feedback that I've heard from multiple sources. I've always admired the talent that comes out of the school as well.

Mainly because of the courses they provided. They have unique courses with experienced faculty. The location ie Bangalore is perfect for a design student. I chose IADP because it consists for product, textile, vc, interface etc design which I wanted to learn/get a degree in
