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.

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.
