    On Highlights
    Q:   Is Parul University expensive?
    A: 

    Yes, Parul University Vadodara is considered to be on a moderately expensive side for most courses. While the lowest fee for a degree course stands at INR 32,000 (for MLib.Sc), the highest fee is INR 30.4 lakh (for BAMS) indicating a big difference in the fee range. Being a private university, the fee for various courses can be a little high. But students can apply for scholarships/ financial assistance which could reduce the fee to an extent, making courses somewhat affordable.  Further, students get global exposure, experience top-class infra & curriculum. The overall highest package was INR 60 LPA. Based on these parameters, the fees seems justifiable. 

    Q:   Can I get direct admission to BDes at Parul University?
    A: 

    No, Parul University does not accept direct admission for most BDes courses. Candidates are required to appear in PU DAT to qualify for BDes admission which also includes a portfolio analysis round.

    However, there is no mention of an accepted entrance exam for BDes in Building and Infrastructure. Thus, direct admission might be possible for this BDes course at Parul University, Vadodara.

    Q:   Which exam is required for admission to BDes at Parul University?
    A:

    There is one specialisation of BDes at Parul Vadodara which may not require candidates to appear in this exam.

    The campus is very welcoming and well-maintained.
    Placements: My course of Bachelor of Design in Building & Infrastructure provides great opportunities for placements if we have good knowledge and a CGPA. The package offered ranges from 4-10 LPA, depending on our portfolio. I suggest students make a good portfolio and maintain good marks in exams.
    Infrastructure: We get all types of facilities which we need, like all-time Wi-Fi is on, and huge labs are available to work. There is a good library, and classrooms are available to study during our exam time. The hostel facilities are good, and the food quality is good. It has a good environment.
    Faculty: Teachers are very helpful, qualified, and knowledgeable. They are approachable and always ready to clear doubts, making the overall teaching quality quite effective. Semester exams are not that difficult. We just need to attend class regularly to get good marks.

    Chill but focused environment.
    Placements: PID offers moderate placements, mostly depending on students' portfolios and skills. Around 20 to 40 percent of students secure campus placement. The highest reported package has gone up to 21 LPA, with an average ranging between 4 and 6 LPA. Students who attend class regularly and complete assignments generally pass with a generous score.
    Infrastructure: PID offers well-equipped workshops, software labs, Wi-Fi, and a resourceful library that supports practical and theoretical learning. Hostel facilities are decent with basic amenities and an average mess. But fails to provide good on-campus medical support, that's the gist.
    Faculty: Faculty of Parul Institute of Design is helpful, generous, well-qualified, and supportive. The teaching quality can vary between different instructors. Increased live projects industry exposure could further enhance industry readiness and confidence in the field.
    Other: I chose this course because I like understanding problems and finding solutions for them more than that. I also like the hands-on work skill set.

    Faculty is great, campus is almost great, hostels aren't so fabulous, but they're worth the money.
    Placements: I'm a second-semester student so I surely don't know anything about placements and stuff but there's a 50-50 review about placements as a few days ago, they got good opportunities in placements and a few say they got a really bad experience. So I still need to know.
    Infrastructure: The infrastructure of the course and the institute is really great, I would appreciate all the involved people but the hostels have enough issues that should be taken care of. Mess food especially is a big problem for me personally. But as this course is not problematic it's adjustable.
    Faculty: Faculty is really great with a few issues. About exams, I'd say just jury isn't sufficient not like there should be some theoretical exam where students memorize all the stuff and dump on the paper but some better way to present what are the design mindset and principles that were learnt how could they apply over something because in jury only practical experiments are represented which might not consider all the requirements above so it's better if there are some hypothetical questions something like hackathons that are given to B.Tech students and workshops that engage only interested students so that progress increases.
    Other: Events are great in here no problem at all. South Fests just need a little increment. The campus crowd is too much. That's so convenient, connectivity is all good but I wish there was more connectivity with people and students from different streams for example product designing students connecting with mechanical engineering students in some concepts, workshops, or projects, and visual communication students working with Computer Science students. That would create a great chance of exploration and exposure. Campus surroundings are pretty good but a smaller scope with extracurricular activities.

    Life at Parul University.
    Placements: 75% of students are placed in my course. The highest package offered is 21 LPA. Top recruiting companies are Jio Creative Labs, Style Up, Livspace, and H&M. 100% of students got internships at good and fame companies as a start for their career, in roles as a site designer.
    Infrastructure: The infrastructure is the best that you can see on a campus, with unique designs for each building, which is in Parul University, whether it be a hostel or an administrative block. The quality of classrooms is also the best at its price. A lot of focus is given to each and every student in the university, despite holding a crowd of more than a lakh.
    Faculty: The teachers are super helpful and have an abundance of knowledge. They don't just teach full-time, each teacher also works as a market professional in the real-time. Exams are similar to NID and other design colleges. Parul University competes and stands above all of the private universities out there by providing the best education at a low price.

    Good college, but not so great.
    Placements: Placements are pretty average in the college. Not many companies come up with good packages. Talked to a senior as well, and she said that she got a job from LinkedIn (she's pretty talented, in my opinion) and that the college doesn't offer much.
    Infrastructure: The infrastructure of the campus is huge and nice, but during summer, you suffer so much because of the lack of trees on the campus. Total show off. Hostels are average, but the food is like any other hostel. Labs are pretty nice in college, though.
    Faculty: Teachers during my foundation are not that great, especially my mentor. But the second semester is average, not so productive, but not so bad. The faculty is nice and helpful, but not all of them sound experienced. One of them sounds confused.
    Other: I chose this course because I want to pursue design as a profession. But couldn't get the admission in mid so this was my last option. Fests are great with a lot of celebrities coming. I wish they'd appoint better faculty members, which they could with all the money they have, and not just improve the looks of the campus and cut away trees and install statues for show-off.

    Life at Parul University.
    Placements: The lowest package is 6 LPA. Mostly in visual communication, people do freelancing as it is the most paid and easily available income option. During the admission process, I was told that we would get 100% placements through college. Mostly the passout students are pursuing masters.
    Infrastructure: Facilities available in the college are tables, chairs, etc. We are not provided with AC in classrooms. ACs are only available in labs. Hostel food quality keeps changing. Sometimes, it's good but on the other hand, we also get sick because of the mess food. We are provided with free hospital facilities, however we have to buy medicine ourselves.
    Faculty: All teachers are helpful and qualified. They are supportive and calm. Our exams are always conducted in jury form. A jury exam is always helpful from a future perspective. I think that college does make us industry-ready but we also have to work on ourselves then only things get on track.
    Other: The reason why I chose this course is because I have always been interested in design. I think visual communication will be the future of India as it is in a growing stage only. The fests and events here are huge and excellent. A recent event that I attended was a fresher's party. Artists that performed here are Sunidhi Chauhan and Badshah. The campus is huge and full of food courts.
