National Institute of Fashion Technology B.Des Review By Saumya Mall

NIFT Bangalore is very good institute in so many ways. But they should work more on campus placements. It is the leading institute for designing and technology. National Institute of Fashion Technology Bangalore also provides scholarships and student exchange programs to their students. In which they get a chance to complete their 1 semester from a foreign design institutes, and there you get a chance to learn from the best of industry. NIFT Bangalore Admission process was very easy after applying I got a mail regarding some documents which we were asked to keep for further admission process.

I completed B.Des from NIFT Bangalore. I had taken admission after 12th. I had joined this course because it was my dream to become a fashion designer. Because I want to create my own identity in fashion industry and I got the best. Because of our amazing faculties all the tough subjects became easy for me.

NIFT Bangalore has best faculties ever. There were approx 8-10 faculties for my course (B.Des). There are some guest facilities also from different NIFT centres. They use to come for like 4-5 weeks for some particular subject. About their qualifications, some of them have done PhD and most of them are from NIFT only. The best thing about them is they make you understand with the best way. Aurineeta ma'am and Rimi ma'am was my favourite. They were most of students' favourite faculty. Because they use easiest way and techniques to make us understand.

NIFT Bangalore Placement cell works hard to place all of their student. But a little bit improvement needed there otherwise its best. There were about 20-25 companies for our placements. From all around India like Shahi Exports, Richa Exports, Arvind Group, J.J Exports etc. Some of students got virtually placed in foreign companies and brands. Approx 70% students got placed. The maximum package was 16.2 lakhs per annum and the lower was 5.6 lakhs. Arvind Group and Shahi hired 3-4 students on the highest package. There are only 6-7 centres out of 16, which do placements in their campuses and NIFT Bangalore is one of them.

NIFT Bangalore Hostel was good. They had separate hostels for both girls and boys. In girls hostel we had 4 blocks for each year's students that was the best thing. In each block we had approximately 25-30 rooms. For first year we have to share our room with two more students. But in the last year we got our separate room. NIFT Bangalore Hostel Fees was 40k. But as they give so many facilities to their students, the fee amount was okay. As I am from northeast, the food taste was not very good for me. But overall we had so many options in food, so that's okay. They have CCTV cameras everywhere, college and hostel both.

NIFT Bangalore Campus is very big and beautiful as compare to other NIFT campuses. It has 4 buildings for all the courses. Each classroom has AC. They have 4 cafeterias for different kind of food and fast food items. Food was also good. They have a big playground for basketball, football, Tennis court and for other activities. Medical facilities is also very good. They have their own and very good doctors both male and female. They visit for 2-3 hours on daily basis, and they also have a counselor. We had 2 stationary shops in our campus only, where we can get prints and Xerox also. Library was also very huge where we get all kind of books.

NIFT College Bangalore Campus life was amazing. I had spent my best time at campus. Everyone was like very helping. Staff was very kind. They had different clubs for different activities and every club has their own presidents for regular activities. If you want to learn from the best, please go for it. You will never regret. I am saying this with my own experience. Every year we use to celebrate so many fests like kolam, garba, spectrum, converge etc. In 2018 we had converge at our centre. Where around 700-800 student from all NIFT centres came to our campus and we had enjoyed like so many activities like sports, cultural and literary activities that was the best year because we enjoyed a lot.
