How are the placements for Bachelor of Design [B.Des] (Fashion Communication) at NIFT Gandhinagar?

When you are in year 3(internships or placements both) or 4(placement) then you're eligible to work in industry. Accessory design is the best department in our campus (gandhinagar) and thus highly reputated companies hire them. So there's a kind of series that is followed that companies first gives preference to DELHI and MUMBAI and then other campuses. As far as my department (fashion communication) is concerned they're mostly given opportunities in retail companies for example- a VISUAL MERCHANDISER in WESTSIDE. Last year GANDHINAGAR was number one in placements with a package of 9,00,000/- Marks or CGPAs matters at the end but a good portfolio matters alot in designing college. Right now I have just completed first year so I have this much information only regarding placements. My plans would be ofcourse to sit for placements and get hired in a good comapny. After getting enough money for my masters I shall go abroad for masters as it builds a good portfolio and even more better job

Employment is your call. Where you want to get placed. Good companies do come. More than percentages it's about your portfolio. Your work will speak for itself. Generally, people have now started their own business after working for like 2-3 years with companies.

Average package in 2017 was 4-5 lac CTC. And the highest was 11 lac but not sure. Lots of startup and big brands like arvinds, lifestyle, tanishq, pcj and naukari. Com comes in the placement. But there is a lot of competition for the placements lot of preference is given to students of the placement centre.

As we all know that Nift is a government institution. And in fours years we have to awake for several nights and completing our assignments. All Niftian are laborious. So our college placement is not much good in starting but after that working in companies after experience we get good salary. Like in starting we get average package of 7.5lakh per year and after that it goes 12-15lakh per year
