Top roles offered are merchandiser, production manager, IE executive, etc.

Our college has good infrastructure and the fee structure is a little high.

Placements: About 99% of students got placements. I don't know much about the average salary package offered. We can get so many designing companies. Nike and Lifestyle are some of them. Everyone in our college gets internships as it is compulsory for us. The roles offered are as designers, graphic designer, garment constructing, stylist, etc.

Infrastructure: We have Wi-Fi in our college as well as in the hostel and other labs for every department For the knitwear department, we have a garment construction lab, a pattern-making lab, and a hand flat knitting lab. The quality of the facility is also good. There are different types and enough machines in the lab. We have food in our mess which offers good food that is suitable for north and south Indian people. We have a basketball and volleyball court. There is a doctor at the college on Wednesdays. Ou...

Good infrastructure and facilities.

Placements: Placement percentage was 100% for my senior batch and the average package offered was 60,000/- Students are facilitated with options to attend interviews from other NIFT centres as well. For fashion design department, stipends are rarely given and that purely depends upon the company. Students are required to do an eight weeks internship (June-July) right after the completion of the sixth semester.

Infrastructure: The campus has Wi-Fi but works best near the Resource Centre and in the computer labs. There are seperate PM, GC, CAD labs for all the departments and additional labs according to the department requirement like photography studio, weaving lab, print/dye lab, etc. There is a library with all kinds of books that help in research and reference and the computers have access to WGSN website as well.
