Which B.Des specialisation should you pick at LPU?
Specialisation
Fashion Design (Fashion)
Most viewed specialisation. Average pay INR 11.4 LPA in 2025. Fee INR 11.60 Lakhs without hostel.
Pick it if:
You want to work with clothes and fabric: this specialisation leads to jobs in apparel brands, and Ludhiana's knitwear units are close to the campus.
You want the most seniors in your specialisation: Fashion Design is the most viewed B.Des course here, with 191 views last year.
You want a published pay figure before you decide: Collegedunia's 2025 data puts its average pay at INR 11.4 LPA.
Skip it if:
You want the lowest fee: it costs INR 11.60 Lakhs for four years, while Film and TV Production costs INR 6.80 Lakhs.
You do not like drawing by hand: sketching and pattern work are part of the course from the first year.
Gaming
Rated 4.0 by students. Fee INR 11.60 Lakhs without hostel. Pay not published.
Pick it if:
You want to design games, not only play them: this course teaches game art and levels, and LPU teaches it with Animation in one school.
You care about what students say: Gaming has a 4.0 rating from its students, higher than Fashion Design's 3.2.
You also like code: game design uses game engines, so you learn some scripting along with art.
Skip it if:
You want a pay figure before you decide: Collegedunia has no average pay for Gaming, so ask the placement cell first.
You want a cheaper seat: it costs the same INR 11.60 Lakhs as Fashion Design, and only an LPUNEST scholarship brings it down.
Graphics
Rated 2.9 by students. Fee INR 11.60 Lakhs without hostel. Pay not published.
Pick it if:
You want to design posters, brands and ads: graphics students make logos, layouts and digital ads for agencies and brands.
You want to keep UI/UX open: LPU teaches Graphics and UI/UX in the same school, so the early subjects overlap.
You hold a UCEED score: it gets you into Graphics without LPUNEST, and LPUNEST then only sets your scholarship.
Skip it if:
You care about student ratings: Graphics has a 2.9 rating, the lowest among the rated B.Des courses here.
You want a pay figure before you decide: Collegedunia has no average pay for Graphics, so ask the placement cell first.
Film and TV Production (Film and TV)
Lowest fee of the degree, INR 6.80 Lakhs without hostel. Average pay INR 6.9 LPA in 2025.
Pick it if:
You want the lowest fee in the degree: Film and TV Production costs INR 6.80 Lakhs for four years, INR 4.80 Lakhs less than the rest.
You want to shoot, edit and direct: the highest B.Des offer here in 2025, INR 34.1 LPA, went to a student of this course.
You want camera and studio work from the start: LPU has a separate school for Film and Television, apart from the other design courses.
Skip it if:
You judge a course by its average pay: Collegedunia's 2025 data puts it at INR 6.9 LPA, the lowest published figure in this degree.
You want a rating before you pick: no student has rated this course on Collegedunia yet.
User Interface and User Experience Design (UI/UX)
No rating yet. Fee INR 11.60 Lakhs without hostel. Pay not published.
Pick it if:
You want to design apps and websites: UI/UX students plan screens and test them with users, for software and product companies.
You like both design and technology: LPU teaches UI/UX with Product and Interior Design and also with Graphics, so you meet both kinds of work.
You hold a UCEED, NID DAT or NIFT score: any of them gets you in, and LPUNEST then only sets your scholarship.
Skip it if:
You want a pay figure before you decide: Collegedunia has no average pay for UI/UX yet, so ask the placement cell first.
You want a rating before you pick: no student has rated this course on Collegedunia yet.
Animation and VFX (Animation)
Rated 3.0 by students. Average pay INR 11.5 LPA in 2025.
Pick it if:
You want the best published pay in the degree: Collegedunia's 2025 data puts Animation and VFX at INR 11.5 LPA, the highest average here.
You want to work on films, ads and games: VFX and animation studios hire for 3D models, effects and motion work.
You like long hours on a computer: most of the course is done on 3D and editing software in labs.
Skip it if:
You want a big batch of seniors: only 34 students viewed this course last year, so the group is small.
You want the lowest fee: it costs INR 11.60 Lakhs, the same as Fashion Design, not the lower Film and TV fee.
Product and Industrial Design (Product)
No rating yet. Fee INR 11.60 Lakhs without hostel. Pay not published.
Pick it if:
You want to design things people use: product designers work on furniture, gadgets and home goods for makers and brands.
You like making models by hand: LPU teaches it with Interior and Furniture Design, so you work in the same workshops.
You hold a UCEED score: it gets you in without LPUNEST, and LPUNEST then only sets your scholarship.
Skip it if:
You want a pay figure before you decide: Collegedunia has no average pay for Product Design, so ask the placement cell first.
You want a rating before you pick: no student has rated this course on Collegedunia yet.
Interior and Furniture Design (Interior)
Rated 4.5 by students. Average pay INR 10.1 LPA in 2025.
Pick it if:
You want the best student rating in the degree: Interior and Furniture Design has a 4.5 rating on Collegedunia.
You want to plan homes, offices and shops: interior designers work with architects, builders and furniture makers.
You want a published pay figure: Collegedunia's 2025 data puts its average pay at INR 10.1 LPA.
Skip it if:
You want many seniors to guide you: this course had 0 views on Collegedunia last year, so few students look at it.
You do not want site visits: interior work means measuring rooms and visiting sites, not only desk work.
Counsellor's advice
If you are sure of the subject, pick it first and take LPUNEST early for a bigger scholarship. If money is tight, look at Film and TV Production. Do not pick a course only for its average pay.

It can be, if you get a good LPUNEST scholarship. The full fee is INR 11.60 Lakhs without hostel in the Design group, and Category A takes 60% off tuition. Collegedunia's 2025 data puts Fashion Design's average pay at INR 11.4 LPA. Take LPUNEST early and check the ROI tile in the fee block above.
Which specialisation should I pick at LPU?▾
Pick the subject you want to work in for years, then check its fee and pay. Seven specialisations cost INR 11.60 Lakhs and Film and TV Production costs INR 6.80 Lakhs. Animation and VFX has the highest published average pay, INR 11.5 LPA. Read who each course suits in the specialisation block above.
Should I take Film and TV Production because it costs less?▾
Only if you want to shoot, edit and direct. It costs INR 6.80 Lakhs, which is INR 4.80 Lakhs less than the rest. Its average pay was INR 6.9 LPA in 2025, the lowest published figure here. But the highest B.Des offer, INR 34.1 LPA, went to this course. Pick it for the subject, not the saving.
Will I get a job after B.Des at LPU?▾
Many students do, but LPU publishes no placement rate for this degree. Collegedunia's 2025 data shows average pay from INR 6.9 LPA in Film and TV to INR 11.5 LPA in Animation and VFX. Ask the placement cell which companies hired from your specialisation last year before you pay.
Who should skip B.Des at LPU?▾
Skip it if you have less than 50% in Class 12, because every route needs it. Also think twice if you cannot pay the full fee without a scholarship, since it is INR 11.60 Lakhs in the Design group. Compare the fee with the colleges in the compare block above before you decide.
Is it better to use UCEED or LPUNEST to get in?▾
Use whichever score you have; both get you any specialisation. With a UCEED, NID DAT or NIFT score, LPUNEST only sets your scholarship. So take LPUNEST anyway, because a Category A result takes 60% off tuition. Use the checker above to see your route.
Should I take LPUNEST in an early phase or wait?▾
Take it early. Earlier phases have given bigger scholarships, and later phases have fewer seats left. The last date of admission last cycle was 20 Aug 2026. Book your LPUNEST slot as soon as the 2027 form opens.
Is B.Des at LPU good for higher studies?▾
Yes, a four-year B.Des lets you apply for M.Des or a master's abroad. LPU also offers M.Des in Interior and Furniture, Product and Industrial, and UI/UX. Keep your portfolio of design work ready from the first year, because most master's courses ask for it.
Which B.Des course has the best student rating at LPU?▾
Interior and Furniture Design has the best rating, 4.5, and Gaming has 4.0. Graphics has the lowest, 2.9. Film and TV, UI/UX and Product have no rating yet. Read the reviews on each course page before you decide, because few students have rated them.
How do I get admission to B.Des at LPU?▾
Register online, then take LPUNEST in any phase or use a UCEED, NID DAT or NIFT score. You need 50% in Class 12 with English. Pick a specialisation and pay the first semester fee to hold your seat.
Is the fee the same for every specialisation?▾
No. Seven specialisations cost INR 11.60 Lakhs for four years without hostel, and Film and TV Production costs INR 6.80 Lakhs. The examination fee of INR 5,000 a semester is the same for all. Tap your fee group in the fee block above.
How much does the hostel cost at LPU?▾
Hostel with mess costs INR 1,17,400 to INR 2,53,400 a year in 2026-27, based on the room. The lowest room adds INR 4.70 Lakhs over four years. Hostel is optional, so add it only if you will live on campus.
