Remarks
Since the very start of my preparation to get into a design school, my prime goal was to get into either IIT Bombay or any of the three NIDs (Bangalore, Ahmedabad & Gandhinagar). IDC School of Design, IIT Bombay being one of the top Design School was at the top of my list. Distinguished faculties, academic environment, and relatively affordable fees could be a few reasons to get into IIT Bombay. I chose to do my Masters's in Communication Design as it fit my creative and professional aspirations perfectly.
Course Curriculum Overview
The curriculum and pedagogy were nearly perfect. Nevertheless, there is always room for improvement. The flexibility of academic schedule and availability of different resources a few clicks or steps away made the overall exposure to the field of Design and the transition from mechanical engineering to Communication Design memorable, useful, and smooth.
Placement Experience
There are numerous companies, from startups to big conglomerates that visit the campus every placement season. The statistics may differ from different departments owing to corresponding factors. In the end, it is up to each and every student how well do they use the opportunities presented before them.
College Events
In retrospect, my whole experience of two and a half years at IIT was the best, to say the least. One of the biggest attractions to the students overall in India and abroad is the annual festival- Mood Indigo. It is a melange of cultural, social, and popular extravaganza. Besides, there are several other activities and festivities that take place throughout the academic year that students can participate in, according to their interests. Time management is key.
