We have good faculty members, nice placement opportunities, and good infrastructure.

Faculty: Our teachers are helpful and knowledgeable, which helps us understand industry concepts clearly in a theoretical manner. The curriculum is relevant as it explains how the industry works. Exams are quite manageable since the teaching provides clear understanding.

Good college with nice facilities. Active campus with a small crowd.

Faculty: The teachers teach well and also help and encourage students to attend events to gain exposure. The curriculum is designed so that students learn not only about fabrics but also leather. The semester exams are easy, though the jury is strict.

The college life of students is very enjoyable.

Faculty: The faculty members are very knowledgeable and friendly. They help the students to understand the subjects and curriculum better and clarify doubts at any time. Each semester has a mid-term and end term examination. For the fashion department, the exams are mostly practical with one or two theory papers.

FDDI - an overview of the college.

Faculty: The faculty members are not that experienced. They'd teach you the basics, but designing is mostly experimenting and self-learning; you go to a lot of internships and learn by yourself. This college is definitely overpriced for the amenities it provides. For this tuition/college fee, I'd expect more from the college side.

You can have fun while learning design.

Faculty: Most teachers are good. A few teachers are exceptionally good. I would like to mention here that Dr. Singh is among the best faculty here. The curriculum is good and teaches us everything that we need for the industry. Computer-aided designing is also in accordance with the latest requirements. Practical subjects have jury evaluation and theory exams that happen twice a semester. I guess 40 percent is the pass percentage.

Good institute for fashion design.

Faculty: Some teachers are really good and know their subject well, and for some subjects, you have to self-learn. The semester theory exams are easy and for practical, you have to be strong with basic and technical knowledge of the subject. The students can learn by going to internships in companies to gain experience.
