What Students Say

Likes

It is in my city, so no need for moving out
The infrastructure is really nice and surrounded by nature
There is little academic stress , and faculties are free.

Dislikes

It is out of nowhere and surrounded with industry and not shops

Course Curriculum Overview

I liked the fact the course is very descriptive, includes elements of design, business , manufacturing and such. The course prepares you for the real world giving extra lessons such as in communication and development. The timetable is well set with good break or gaps. Only need for improvement is portion completion.

Class Size: 50Course Fees: INR 140000 per year

Internships Opportunities

3.5

I havnt explored much about the internship but the faculties i talked to says they provide incampus investment. Currently the college 4th years are on their final inrernships. So no need to worry about that.

Placement Experience

3.5

The placements are good. I have seen the data of my college passed out senior being placed in companies like Bata or decathlon. The percentage is 99%. My plans are going for masters after this degree.

Fees and Financial Aid

The regular fees for the year is approximately 2.5 lakhs and for the whole degree it would cost around 9.2 lakhs. The is the standard fees for all the students who qualified in the entrance. The semester fees varies. The government quota gives free education for students from government modal schools.

Campus Life

There are lots of festivals and events being conducted here for days such as national handloom day, embroidery workshop, navaratri, holi and such. The seniors have told about these cant wait for our turn this year. There are social media team. Sports and culturals committee as well.

Admission

I got in all the college i applied to. The advantage i had in this college is that it was in the same city i live in and the biggest factor is that this is a nation college under INI. So the degree has very high brand value when out in the world. Other colleges had their advantages but they were all private.

Faculty

4.5

The facilities are very approachable regarding any queries. Im just a first year student i cant say which facility is how ? No reason for disliking them. For the fashion department the exams are much less compared to footwear ie it could be 1 or 2 papers for fashion and 8 papers for footwear. The curriculum is very up to date with latest technologies.

Bdes industrial design at VIT

Placement Experience:

Thr placements for bdes is not as good as btech ofcourse, which is why a lot of them prefer to apply for it individually as I said, but a good training is given for sitting on placements on our 3rd and 4th year of the course. The minimum cgpa for sitting for placements is 8.5 and as of what I know 9 lakh is the estimated package. I am planning to pursue masters after my degree and in between If I want a break I thought of gaining some work experience by working for an year so. I thought of applying for companies myself instead of sitting for the placements from university itself.

Is VIT a good Place to learn Bachelor of Design (Industrial design)?

Placement Experience:

Since VIT is known for their campus placements , there is no shortage in placements as of now. This year almost all the students who sat for placemennts who had 8 or above CGPA did well with their placements.The topper is also known to get a placemnt of 50 lpa, but he average remains to be 7lpa. Moreover if you have a good cgpa you will get a good internship by third year.Everything depends on the CGAPA that you maintain through your course.70% of students were placed. Iam most probably going to sit for placements if not I hope i will be trained enough to get placements on my own.TCS is known to be giving the most number of placements folllowed by some other industrial ccompanies and startups.

Review of my college

Remarks:

My 4 years at NIFT was utterly an experience! I cant describe it probably in a word but I can say that it has built me as a person, it has thought me how to deal with different people from a worker or an artisan to at CEO or MD of an organisation, it has thought me to be confident at the same time humble. How to work under immense pressure and time constrains. All in all NIFT has acquiped me to take on this world and make my mark with the skills and practices that I learnt in these 4 years.

FDDI Chennai: A Blend of Creativity, Career, and Campus Comfort

Why I Chose FDDI Chennai I chose FDDI Chennai because it offers a specialized curriculum in Fashion Design / Footwear Design / Leather Goods, with strong industry linkages, good infrastructure, and a practical-oriented approach. Its backing by the Ministry of Commerce & Industry gives it credibility, and the placement support is also a strong factor. Why I Couldn't Make It to Other Colleges NIFT – Very high competition. I appeared for the entrance but my rank wasn’t sufficient for the center/course I wanted. Other Private Colleges – I was selected, but the fee was too high and ROI didn’t justify the cost. FDDI Admission Process 1.Entrance Exam (AIST) FDDI All India Selection Test (AIST) is a written exam covering GK, aptitude, design awareness, and English. 2. Application Form Apply online through the FDDI website. Choice of campus and program is selected during this step. 3. Result & Counseling Based on AIST score and seat availability, students are called for counseling and seat allotment....Read More
