The top firms that came to visit the campus are Maps of India, The Grid, Synergy corporate interiors, The Karigars etc and offering a average package of 4 to 6 lpa according to the skills of the students.

Practical exposure about the industry and how the planning of the layout, furnishing, color schemes, decorations of the establishments needs to be done so that it fulfill the needs of their customers. We are taught about techniques such as how to the work in a given budget and the ability to manage and at the same time work as a team . Overall the teachers of our department always motivates us in learning more about interior designing so that we can we good interior designers in future.
