Review of CEPT University.

Placements: More than 50% of placements got placed. Top recruiting companies are HCP, Prashant Parmar Architects, etc. Roles offered are of junior designer and junior product designer. Almost every student gained an internship in big companies, but it is up to a student where he or she might want to go.

Infrastructure: We have an amazing infrastructure in place based on its architecture. Amazing classrooms that are not typical school classrooms: we have studios where we play music nonstop on speakers, we have parties, and we have open discussions with faculty. Wi-Fi is available. The library is 4 floors. Medical services are provided, and the hostel mess is also okay.

Faculty: Teachers are helpful and qualified for sure. We have a transparent and family-like relationship with the faculty members. The course is updated based on student feedback. Student voice is heard: there are no exams in the 5-year course. It does make the students industry ready.

Other: This course helped me to study the technical field, the architectural field, and a bit of the urban development field. Usually it is allowed to study crossover subjects. It is the biggest positive thing. Campus is very happening; every day or the other, there are events and festivals happening, and it includes batch parties, normal parties, food, cultural events, sports events, music, games, etc.

Amazing campus, library, and workshop.

Placements: There is one placement cell, that manages the placements. Faculty members who teach us often come from an industrial background, and are already working or have worked in the market. Many times, it is these faculty members from whom or through whom we can expect opportunities to work. Also, the internships that we do, might go on to become our workplace, considering we have done substantial and meaningful work.

Infrastructure: It is an animal-friendly college, and the campus has tons of trees which is amazing. Wi-Fi has been provided on campus. Lilavati Lalbhai library is top-notch, with amazing in-house and out-house productions. Canteens could sure do with certain updates. We will have to look out for the summers, they are a bit harsh, given we rarely use air-conditioning. A new set of hostels is being constructed and should begin functioning in the second half of 2025. The holder group of hostels and the mess are surrounded by neem trees as well, all-in-all a very comfortable stay.

Faculty: We have a vertical-level studio system. The third and second-year students study in level 2 studios likewise, the 4th and 5th year students study in the level 3 studios. Each semester comes with a set of pre-existing and newer studios, alongside 2-3 mandates. This allows us to expand and explore a lot, no matter the course specifications. The studio location process each semester needs to change, and should be worked upon. We give juries at the end of each semester explaining to the juniors our design process, and the final outcome.
