Course Curriculum Overview
The VIT Vellore's Bachelor's in Industrial Design course has a good curriculum. It used to be too much theoretical till the last year. But From My year(this year) they changed it. not it's just one theory subject, i.e., Introduction to design. Its prepares us well up to the level of the industry. It can be improved in freehand sketching subject. We haven't had our exams till now so xant really say how difficult they'll be...
Internships Opportunities
As for Now I really have no knowledge about the internships. We have provided internships in our third years though. Let's see what companies will we be getting our internship in. It'll be related to design only.
Placement Experience
As Of my knowledge there are close to no 'direct' placements for bachelors in industrial design form VIT Vellore. I talked with some seniors, they told us about previous batches and if you go to a company by your-self , you can get a placement of 8-12 per annum easily.
Fees and Financial Aid
I am a student from Bachelor's in Industrial Design from VIT Vellore. The per annum fee for the same is ?1,73,000 which sums up to ?6,92,000 for four years(course duration). The caution fee is ?3000. This remains the same for all the categories. I don't know about the scholarships gor now.
Campus Life
So In VIT Vellore, There are only two major fests. The Gravitas. The Riviera. Gravitas is a really big tech fest and Riviera is actually fun and everything. Gravitas has more than 300 events and games and it is this September, 27-30 (4 days). We have a pretty big library with over 5Lakhs+ books and Everything's there basically. There are more than 150 clubs and chapters. basically it's all fun.
Hostel Facilities
I am a hosteller, I have triple sharing a/c rooms. Costs me 1,83,000 for 2 sem (1year). Everything's good here just the rooms are not as big as they should be. That's not really a problem but they should be bigger. washrooms are cleaned twice-thrice a day!! I have normal non-veg mess, and the food is good! menu changes every month. No goodrented room or pg nearby.
Admission
I just applied for IITs. I was OBC 195 in UCEED (design exam conducted by IIT Bombay) . But taht rank was a bit high to get into IIT so I ended up here. And I'm pretty satisfied with this also. I can't really compare it with other colleges as for now but there's one thing, If you're a Design there's too much work for you and you won't be able to enjoy ur first year at least. There are not really much of the fests here. The eligibility for bdes in vit is 60% or above, any stream.
Faculty
We, in industrial design, have a batch strength of 51 students. Till last year it used to be 25. We also have a faculty of five professors for the first year. Including the faculty from IDC(IIT BOMBAY), Prof. Saleem Ahmed and NID AHEMDABAD, Prof. Vaidyanathan, Prof. Raj Kumar, Prof. Bhawani and a prof. for the soft skills (idk her name). We have i guess 2 main exams at the and of each sem. We just had out CAT-1 its was very easy.
