I was interested in this design field and NIFT is one of the top design institutes in the world. For admission there is one written exam and one studio test. You get to give the studio test only if you pass the written exam.
The course and the curriculum is very different from other colleges, there are regular assignment submissions, continuous evalution for few subjects, and jury at the end of every semester. The curriculum is different from other colleges cause you get to solve mostly real life problems with your design thinking.
Placement and job opportunities are not that impressive as I’ve seen and heard from seniors. Big companies do come but the annual package is bad for Bachelor degree students, its good for Masters students.
It’s approximately 1.5-1.8 Lakhs per semester. So yearly its 3 Lakhs above for 2 semesters. And there are scholarship options for people with income lower than 5lakhs per annum. And the fees is same for General, ST, SC. Its just higher for NRI Students.
Life in campus is cool, people are chill and open minded, there are clubs like sports, photography etc. There are fests like spectrum and converge. It’s a nice experience. In converge you can get to compete with other Nift students from other campuses in a particular sport.
No i havent opted for mess or hostel facility. There is no hostel facility for boys, there are hostels only for girls. The mess is ok, food is not great but eatable and also cheaper than outside the campus.
For our degree program we have well placement opportunities other than bsc agriculture and btech biotechnology. For our college only company will come like itc,shula wine, Nestle etc and they offer good package minimum around 4lakh and some have aptitude test and interview some direct interview
There are top rated faculties which are present in the college who have pursued MBBS and MD degrees from top colleges and have for an exam to become a professor in this college and the teaching skills are pretty great as they make a topic pretty easy to understand for students
The placement and job opportunities are good in our college. Our college provides us only with UG Courses so most of the students pursue higher education after that. The placements are good in our college. If I talk about internships so they are very good. Our college provides both paid and unpaid internships to students.
the average package is 6 lpa and highest is 14 lpa and there is a placement cell that helps students to get placed. the placement rate of our college is 90%. and the companies come to our college is tcs, tech mahindra, infotech, zelethra, wipro etc.
I got placed in a company called Glory Infinity Private Limited, there other offers from The math school infosys ultratech every student had multiple offers from company. Not A very high packages but good opportunities
The criteria is the cgpa should be above 7 and the companies visited are wipro, flipkart, amazon etc. the highest package is 48 lakh per annum and lowest pacuis 3 lakh per annum and the average is 6 lakh per annum
The placement of the college is excellent in the cse stream it has an average package of 9 lakh per annum and highest package of 38 lakh per annum it is a good salary or package for an engineer so it is good placement
Faculties are well qualified and some of them are doing active research. However the college does not have a very active research environment but they do not hinder a student from taking up projects outside. They provide all support like recommendations, attendance permissions etc.
All the faculties are well qualified and quite renowned in their research fields. However some of them have this quality of holding personal grudge and targeting. Some assume you know a lot and don't teach properly and expect more from the student. There is a lot of pressure even with internals, assignments and other things.
For placement, The student shouldnt have any backlogs. There are companies that are stated as "Great Places to Work" as well as some startups that come for college recruitment. The highest package last year (2023) was 6000000, and the average package of the university is approximately 850000. A good percentage of people who opt for placements do get placed decntly. My plans after my BBA are writing GMAT and going for my MBA abroad in a good college.
