Fashion design is a highly competitive and exciting industry where only the most talented professionals advance. Though both the universities are good in terms of academics but being an alumni of LPU let me explain in detail. The salient features of this course (B. Design (Fashion) B.Sc.

Fabric design forms the core of the whole business of Fashion industry. Active participation of students has been encouraged in various activities like workshops on Mural making, textile art, fashion accessories (by Mr. Ankur, exhibition designer from NID, Ahmedabad), junk art, t-shirt painting, hairstyling etc. A workshop on Sanjhi art was given by Mr. Ram Soni, a national award.

Though both the universities are good in terms of academics but being an alumni of LPU let me explain the things in detail. There is 100% Placement every year where students are placed with retail, luxury, export, buying, craft sector, fashion houses, etc. Industry interface with leading brands for summer training, full-term optional/ compulsory internships, On-job training, study tours, and skill enhancement events and workshops are extensively integrated in the LPU curricula, to expose students to real work environments and provide them an opportunity to apply their learning in real life situations. This placement can be attributed to lots of factors like Handholding through Start-up School and Entrepreneurship: It is to set up new ventures, improve upon and modernize existing business, engage in social entrepreneurship / NGO. A unique course that gives wings to the students by providing them hand on experience. Student get chance to develop their own products and sell into the university own studio Panacha.
