Choosing the "best" B.Des specialty at National Institute of Design, Vijaywada, Andhra Pradesh is a personal choice based on interests and professional goals. Nonetheless, NID Vijaywada's three specialisations in industrial design, communication design, and textile and apparel design are all well-regarded and provide bright futures for students.
For individuals who are interested about making useful and inventive products—from cars and medical equipment to furniture and appliances—industrial design is a great option. Industrial designers make sure their designs are functional, visually beautiful, and producible by carrying out in-depth research, coming up with innovative concepts, and creating prototypes.

The goal of communication design is to efficiently and aesthetically communicate ideas over a range of media, including print, digital, and interactive platforms. For use in a variety of contexts, including branding, social media, and advertising, communication designers produce images, illustrations, and typography with the intention of educating, entertaining, and involving audiences.

Those with a strong sense of style and a desire to create stylish yet practical textiles and apparel can find their calling in textile and apparel design. Designers of textiles and clothing investigate the qualities of materials, create original patterns, and create clothes that suit market demands and prevailing trends.

Our college is recommended with high level of exposure.
Placements: Around 98% get very good placements. Everyone gets placed with reputable companies. The highest salary package was 30 LPA and the minimum salary package is 9 LPA. Titan, ITC, penguin books, nick, and cartoon network are the top recruiting companies. Around 100% of students got internships. Graphic designer, Animators, and Illustrator are the roles offered.
Infrastructure: Hostel facility is not there. Colleges don't have a campus of their own. New college campus is almost ready. Resource centers are excellent and also have a subscription for e-libraries. Studios have high technology equipment. Campus has a Wi-Fi facility. It also provides transportation facilities. Canteen provides good food.
Faculty: Teachers are highly qualified, hold a great position in the industry, give students personal care, are very knowledgeable, and are helpful. The curriculum makes the students ready for industry. Semester examinations are moderate. Initially, the exam seems difficult but the end is easy.

Good. Waiting for offline classes.
Placements: Well, many of my seniors are working for good companies. And you have to do a graduation project in the final year of NID. And your portfolio is more important to get some good jobs. It's not precisely like engineering colleges. Design institutes have slightly different systems.
Infrastructure: As of now, we don't have any hostel or mess service. But our new NID campus is being constructed in Amravati. It's almost done. We will be shifting there soon. It will have all the requirements you want. The construction was a little slow because of some government issues. but hopes we will be there soon.
Faculty: There are good faculty members. The course curriculum is based on NID. And there are no exams in NID. There will be a jury instead. But you will have to do a lot of work and will have time limits for submitting it. And there will be visiting faculty members. Many of them have graduated from good colleges as well.
