Between NIFT Kangra and NIFT Patna, which is a better option?

Even after starting its pilot batch in the same year, NIFT Patna is emerging rapidly than NIFT Kangra day after day. Both campus has a lavish campus, yet Patna Campus is offering both undergraduate as well as postgraduate courses, while Kangra Campus is limited to UG Programs only. While NIFT Kangra students have to rely upon central NIFT Placements, NIFT Patna has established its own placement committee and is working smoothly to place its in-house students right in the first place. So, overall, NIFT Patna is a better option than NIFT Kangra.

Simran Singh's Review On National Institute Of Fashion Technology - [NIFT] Kangra, Kangra

Fees and Financial Aid:

Fees keep on increasing every year by 10% so for every semester your overall expenses on fees and other stuff would be around 2 lakhs. Yes, they provide scholarship which is based on your parent's profile or can say salary.

Arpita Mahanti's Review On National Institute Of Fashion Technology - [NIFT] Kangra, Kangra

Course Curriculum Overview:

I was passionate about Designing at that time. NIFT is a very respected government college in the field of Design and that's why I chose NIFT Kangra.Very fewer provisions of on-campus faculty for a batch of about 150 students (including all the other programs), only 15 faculty members were present. The ratio would be 10:1. However, various Guest Faculties used to come for a few subjects for a duration of 4 - 15 days as per requirement.Qualification: Some have done Maters in Arts, or some were Textile Designer, and some didn't have a qualification or not, we have had no idea. But the guest faculty who visited NIFT Kangra Campus had a Masters in Design such as Textiles, Visual Merchandising, Fashion Communication, etc. The teaching method was not extraordinary. It would have been great if students were taught basic things related to textiles such as dyeing or printing, maybe have extended the weaving subject duration. That would have been great. They majorly focused on the commercial aspect of Textile Designing like Print designing on a Computer (CAD) or by hand. There were a few theory classes, a few practical and some creative subject classes.Exams were conducted on a semester basis such as Summer exams and Winter exams. Besides, there was a continuous internal assessment of students.There were two types of exam:Theory Exam: Written Test fro all theory subjectsJury: Kind of Interview for all creative/practical subjects.Difficulty Level: Easy-Moderate
