FDDI Review

Likes

Great staff and lecturers with good knowledge. Very interactive.
Good infrastructure and equipment for learning. Anti ragging campus. Very vast and surrounded by greenery
High amount of opportunities for portfolio development and job searching

Dislikes

Minimum club activities, not active for some time
Can be maintained a bit more for easy functioning.
A lot of input for work and assignments is required.

Placement Experience:

I don't have much idea about the placements.But it's said to be quite good.The companies that visit the campus are well-known and they select the best candidates for the job. My plans after getting a degree is to finish the master's in the same field and then work for some basic experience in the field and to become an entrepreneur in the future. There are many career options that can be considered after finishing a degree from this college.

Life at Woxsen

Likes

Our design faculties are quite supportive
The infrastructure looks amazing, along with great sky

Dislikes

Sometimes the management won't really listen to us
Too many restrictions, almost nothing is allowed

Placement Experience:

The placements depends on the student, Campis does bring some companies, but in the end it's the students portfolio and personality that will grab the opportunity. Campus placements started from 8th semester, we have placement coordinators too. Various companies like oram, micron, flipkart show up for the placements. And the 2023 batch had the average of 6.2LPA. The highest so far has been 13LPA, top 20% avg is 8.8 LPA It keeps on increasing, depending upon the student itself.

It is quite and u can see alot of birds and insects
The night life in this campus in great the campus us open till 2 at noght it nakes ot very interesting

Dislikes

We r only allowed to go out on weekends with parent permissions which get annoying sometines coz it can be very hard to get permission from parents
We have a lot of rules that ristrict us from doing a lot of thing we also get fined if we break rules
The campus can be expensive which ks hard as a student

Placement Experience:

There are placements given but we dont preffer to take these as it is not good enough and our faculty encourages us to get our own coz it helps in exposure The salaries can be pretty low compared to other schools like bba Desing is very different it needs both artistic and logical minds as it is subjective and people have diffrent ideologies that makes it hard to fullfil all the requirements

The course away from the "Rat Race", needs to explore!

Placement Experience:

From the 8th semester onwards we are eligible for campus placements. Companies do visit the campus as well as NIFT has a central placement system too in which students can prefer any campus for their campus placements. The salary is not very handsome in the beginning. Usually starts with Rs. 20,000/- per month which is really not an acceptable offer after investing about 15-16 lakhs in the education and getting this amount is not justified. Though there is a need for our college to fix the minimum salary for placement companies. Most students find off campus placements with good packages than on campus placements. One can also go to further study masters in Fashion technology or fashion management. My personal plans are for entrepreneurship in the field of technological advancement in fashion or having my own import export house someday.

Design course in NIFT.

Remarks:

NIFT is a great institute that provides a great education system while training students to their inner selves. All the students coming from vast backgrounds are treated equally well. I always felt that I am different in school but in NIFT I found so many people like me and I could actually found my place that comforted me for life.

I applied to all other design colleges available.I couldn't make it to some colleges because of some personal issues. I chose this college because it's a government college and has good equipment for the field.I'm studying in the admission process for the college.Includes an entrance test and three rounds of seat allotment. The? Exam cutoff is not given , but it's quite easy to study for the entrance exam. The eligibility criteria for the enterance exam is that the student should pass the 10+2 in any field....Read More

My Experience in FDDI Hyderabad

Why I Chose My Design College: I chose my design college because of its unique blend of creative freedom, academic rigor, and strong industry connections. When I was considering various colleges, I was looking for an institution that would not only help me hone my design skills but also expose me to innovative methodologies and technologies. The faculty’s expertise, combined with a modern, well-equipped campus, played a key role in my decision. Comparison of Design College with Other Colleges: Curriculum: My design college offers a progressive curriculum that integrates both traditional and digital design practices, preparing students for the ever-changing design landscape. Other colleges I applied to either focused too much on one or the other, which I felt would limit my growth.The flexibility in the course structure allows me to specialize in areas like graphic design, UX/UI, and product design, something that wasn’t as pronounced in other institutions. Industry Connections and Internships: The design college I chose has a strong network with leading design agencies and startups, ensuring students have valuable internship opportunities. These connections provide a clear pathway to professional employment.In comparison, some of the other colleges I applied to didn't seem to have as many active partnerships or strong alumni networks in the design industry, which made me worry about post-graduation opportunities....Read More
