The college is best for fashion in India as it comes under top 10 institutes in the world .
Placements: Lifestyle, reliance are two of the top recruiting companies. Average package for students in the previous batch was 4 Lacs per annum. Maximum students from the previous batch were offered good internships with top companies. One of the best placement from previous batch was in Lifestyle Dubai.
Infrastructure: Since it's a new campus, amenities are not properly accessible. The campus is still under development, so auditorium is not completed, but classrooms have functional equipments. The quality and quantity of food is good. Also, they have bakery products available.
Faculty: The teachers are usually NIFT alumni and few professors with tremendous experience in the same field. The course curriculum is same for the entire programme across all the locations of NIFT in India. The course is not difficult to understand as it is more relevant to daily life.

Good learning and great facilities for the fields available. Amazing faculty members.
Placements: 1. Many were placed. The placement gives lots of opportunities to the students, as many of the students already get PPO (Preplacement offers). 2. Some of the companies that participated in placement were Shantanu and Nikhil, Anju Modi, Rangoli furnishings, Shades of India, Vardhaman, Gulmoharlane, Studio Hauz etc. 3. The placement packages were quite disappointing to us, as many students then went for off-campus (Interviews) to look for job. 4. There were two internships provided, in which faculty members help and even seniors to get an internship to new students (Summer internship and Graduation Project). 5. The roles offered in Textile Design are - Textile Designer, CAD Designer, Fashion Designer, Home Decorator, Merchandiser, Design Coordinator, Print Designer, Graphic Designer etc.
Infrastructure: 1. The main campus is still under construction, So the students get to have their college life experience with the temporary campus, that is Bhoj University, Kolar Road, Bhopal 2. The Hostels were good and mess food was fine too. 3. Most of the students rent a flat or room and stay in the group after the first year.
Faculty: 1. The teachers were the best, they were helpful, qualified and knowledgeable. Their teaching quality was also very nice if you are attentive in your classes about whatever they are teaching. 2. Yes, the curriculum is very close to being relevant to the subjects and activities to make the students industry ready.
Other: 1. As I was a design enthusiast, I always wanted a good college to get more skilled, the faculty members were nice and subjects were fine for me to have enough knowledge to get into job life, which profession to lead. 2. I wish with textiles, most of the subjects were very good and important for me to learn. If Photography will be included as a subject in Textile design, that is something I would wish for. 3. Events and Fest were very encouraging and each & everyone can participate and showcase their talents.
