Is a B.Des. from DTU a good option?

RT
Raktim Tarafdar Posted On : July 5th, 2023

My friend was in the second batch of this course. She was hesitant initially as the course was relatively new and everyone was against her idea of taking it. She believed that everything is new initially and someone has to take it to make it old. 

India has a very limited number of design colleges and it’s quite difficult to make it into one. The limited options and the huge crowd makes the completion tougher. 

  • Faculties: The faculty of Design at DTU comprises highly qualified professors from IITs, NIDs, and highly renowned colleges like the Royal College of Art, UK. They will be your mentors and guide you excellently.
  • Value: DTU enjoys a good brand value that will be reflected in your degree. Its rich legacy will open multiple doors of opportunities for you.
  • Internships: The internship opportunities are great offering tremendous exposure and industrial experience.
  • Placements: Decent companies approach design students and offer good packages after acknowledging your skills.
  • Infrastructure: Many labs are under construction such as CAD Lab, Soft and Hard material lab, and 3D Printing Lab. Other infrastructural facilities include a 159-acre campus and a library well-stocked with design books.
  • Curriculum: The curriculum has been designed at par with foreign as well as IIT IDC Syllabi. The Course has specialization in the fields of Product Design, Visual Communication Design, and Interaction Design.

Ultimately, bear in mind the fact that this course is new and it will take years for its credibility to reflect.

What is the difference between the B-Des programme at IIT-Bombay and the B-Des programme at IIT-Guwahati?

AJ
Advait Joshi Posted On : May 3rd, 2023
Lives in Mumbai, Maharashtra, India

B.Des (Bachelor of Design) programs at IIT Bombay and IIT Guwahati are both undergraduate programs that focus on design education. However, there may be some differences in terms of the specific curriculum, perspectives, experience, and course offerings at each institution.

  • Experience: IIT Guwahati B.Des is known for its excellent experience in handling undergraduate students. The course is older than 2 decades and has been through constant revisions to make it industry relevant. IDC, IIT Bombay is also one of the best design schools in India for technical design, M.Des that provides great exposure to its students.
  • Perspective: While IIT Guwahati strongly focuses on science as an important part of design, IIT Bombay does not. It solely focuses on design with little importance to technical stuff. 
  • Faculty: The faculty pool of both institutes comprises extremely learned and experienced professors that are genuinely passionate about design and teach in such a way that students also fall in love with the course.

Ultimately, how much you gain from this course depends on you only as it all is about learning, observing, and experimenting. No one can help you in design, you have to explore everything on your own.

Which is better for designing, Avantika University (MIT Pune) or UID?

PM
Priyash Mahera Posted On : May 17th, 2022
Bachelor of design from Avantika University

For Designing, Avantika University is better than UID. In fact, MIT School of Design is the best private institution for design courses. The faculties of the institute are highly skilled. They have years of experience in the design industry domain. The teaching methodology is effective. Students are provided with practical and real-time exposure from their first semester. Which goes a long way to enhance their skills. 

Avantika University has a beautiful campus, well-equipped with all necessary facilities. Students are given access to 24*7 wifi or LAN.

What is the scope of a bachelor of design from IIT Guwahati?

SG
Sohini Ghose Posted On : May 4th, 2023
studied at Indian Institute of Technology, Guwahati

Bachelor of Design or B.Des is a great program offered by IIT Guwahati. Here are a few pros and cons to give you a better understanding of the course

Pros:

  • Excellent placements: The Bachelor of Design at IIT Guwahati has amazing placements. The placement percentage is around 85-90%. The highest CTC in 2021 was recorded at INR 35 LPA and the average is in the range of 12-15 LP. 
  • Easier grading: IIT Guwahati follows a relative grading system which means you will be graded relative to the students of your branch. This system is very easy and I know a student who had a 7.3 CPI of 7.3 in his first year but managed to score 9.2 in his third semester. Many others have an SPI above 9.
  • Matter- The concepts taught are associated with the job roles you will be offered and the learning experience is great with very approachable professors. You will be given many projects to hone your skills. 

Cons

  • Owing to the general assumption, people will consider you inferior for joining this branch. However, it’s much more than just art. It comprises web designing, app designing and other designing elements.

All in all, to make the most out of the program you will have to explore beyond academics and undertake challenging projects to broaden your knowledge base.

Is IIT Guwahati safe for South Indians from Hyderabad? How do they treat southern people that are IIT Guwahati BDes students?

SG
Sohini Ghose Posted On : May 5th, 2023
studied at Indian Institute of Technology, Guwahati

IIT Guwahati is safe not only for South Indians but for every student of the college. The campus is very beautiful and the serene ambiance attracts many across the country. There is no reason to feel insecure here. If it’s the Hyderabad people you are worried about, lay your worries to rest because they are the most friendly you will find. 

There is no impartial attitude towards students from any state and professors treat every student equally. Despite the language barrier, you can see great harmony between the students as they can often be seen playing together. 

You can find diverse peer groups here and the love for Engineering and nature can be seen as the binding factor between them. Parents of certain children often hesitate from sending their children to the Northeast but trust me after a few months you will think of IIT Guwahati as your home, such is its charm.

Which is better for pursuing a B.Des - the IIT in Bombay or NIFT?

RC
Ritwik Chowdhury Posted On : July 27th, 2022
PGDIM Supply Chain Management, National Institute of Industrial Engineering (2018)

For Fashion Design or Apparel Design, NIFT is the best institute in the country. If you aspire to become a designer or stylist, then choose NIFT. It offers many design specializations such as Fashion, Accessories, Textile, Leather, Knitwear, etc. 

For Visual Communication and Product Design, IIT Bombay will be better. IITB basically offers Graphic Design, but it has more importance due to the IIT tag.
