SID is one of the best colleges you can go to for Design.

Placements: SID has a 100% placement record. Under my discipline, i.e. Video Film Design, all the students get placed and are recruited by various production houses, corporate companies, advertising companies, etc. The initial packages go from 6 Lacs PA up to 12-14 Lacs PA. Under VFD, we have the opportunity to become video editors, photographers, cinematographers, writers, set designers, creative designers, directors and many more.

Infrastructure: The equipment and the facilities provided for my course and as a matter of fact for all courses are state of the art and are constantly upgraded as per growing times. We are provided with the best computers, software and equipment like cameras, gimbals and other resources for more hands-on experience and actual skill development. There are editing labs equipped with Mac, studios for shooting and proper labs for all the technical work. The hostel provided by SID is one of the most hygienic and quality hostels ever seen. There are badminton net, garden and basketball court for our recreation. There are also common rooms wherein pool table, carrom and table tennis table has been placed for us. There is an on-call doctor available whenever needed in an emergency. The food provided in the mess is of great quality. The diverse menu every week makes sure to cover the general liking of specific dishes for everyone.

Faculty: The faculty of my department and across all department is exceptional. They are extremely guiding and would help you through the basics. Instead of feeling judged, we feel secure and safe because the faculty is focused to make us improve our skills and be the best in the industry. They are extremely friendly too. At times, it won't feel as if they are professors, rather as seniors and friends. The curriculum is completely practical and relevant to the current industry trends. Since the faculty itself has a lot of industry exposure, there is ample exposure for the students too, ultimately making us industry ready. The semester exams aren't difficult. Since a design programme has jury exams, it is more like a viva and a presentation of the work done throughout the semester. Regular assignment completion makes jury a swift process. Plus, the faculty clears theoretical concepts so easily that one need not do rote learning for any sort of viva questions.

Other: I chose Video Film Design because of my interest in writing and storytelling. The best thing about VFD at SID is the faculty and the hands-on experience provided by the university. SID has one of the most active co-curriculars. With weekly clubs, regular events and celebrations, Shilpakatha, FDM-Fundamentals (College Fest) and a lot of events, the college surely knows how to keep its students entertained and engaged throughout.

It is one of the best designed colleges.

Placements: Symbiosis has a record of 100% placements. In 2022 placements, the highest salary package offered is around 12 LPA, and the lowest salary package offered is 6 LPA. Placements are the best in UI/UX followed by fashion communication and design. Some of the top recruiting companies are Accenture, Infosys, Amazon, Tata Motors, H&M, and Whirlpool.

Infrastructure: There are three girls' hostels. You have the choice to live in 3 shared or 2 shared rooms. Each room has its own washroom and balcony. The rooms are spacious and comfortable. The food served is good for hostel standards but the snacks are always delicious. There is Wi-Fi in the college and hostel. Classrooms are big and full of vibrance. There are well-equipped garment-making labs, pattern-making labs, animation labs, woodwork labs, photo studios, and others.

Faculty: As a first year student, I know only about the foundation-year faculty members. They are well qualified with many years of experience in teaching and industry. Each classroom gets 3 professors who instruct and help out during assignments. However, they help more only if you approach them first.

It will not be the best college experience, but you will take away quite a few good memories.

Placements: According to the information I got from my seniors, they have to look for internship opportunities on their own. Placements are more easily available for the students of graphic design and product design course. Placements are almost not available for fashion designing course. A placement cell exists, but very little support is given by the faculty.

Infrastructure: Infrastructure facilities provided (related to the course) are adequate. Though it is not outstanding, the assigned tasks can be completed. Food is really good, and it is better than most of the colleges. Many varieties are offered is offered, and there is an on-campus canteen that serves a very wide variety of delicious food. Hostel capacity of girls is better than the hostel capacity of boys. The rooms are good in the hostel I stay, and there are attached washrooms. The staff are nice and caring.

Faculty: A good percentage of the faculty have a good knowledge of their subject. However, some teachers are made to teach subjects that aren't their forte. You have to approach the teachers by yourself if you have queries because, in some courses, sufficient information is not given. So far, the curriculum has been useful in improving pre-existing techniques and also in taking more important decisions regarding practical applications.

Other: As there are several different colleges in the vicinity, you get to participate in inter-college events. There are two fests conducted every year, Shilpkatha and Fundamentals. They aren't the best fests but provide good entertainment. There are a lot of facilities in the around campus like malls, restaurants, cinemas, etc. Sports and extracurricular activities aren't paid much attention, and if you are interested in sports, you have to find off-campus facilities.

Great experience in the particular fields with practicality.

Placements: Most placements and internships were given and applied for graphic design and companies like mtv India, vh1 etc. Are most popular in giving opportunities. Some placements were offered abroad with salaries up to 5 Lacs. It is very helpful in making contacts in the industry and outside the industry with many supportive people.

Infrastructure: Graphic design classrooms, animation lab, fashion design labs, product design studios, interior space design lab, gym, library, photography lab, user experience design lab, video film design studios etc. Canteen food preferred at most times than mess food but mess food is healthier. Comfortable hostel for boys and girls.

Faculty: Most faculty have more than 7 years of experience in their field of Design and have worked with famous companies. Advanced technology along with ancient technology is included in our courses. Most courses were taught for the requirements to prepare ourselves to settle in the industry.

Other: College fest, festivals, design showcase, animeet, shilpkaatha, chhap.

Faculty: The faculty and the curriculum is very rigorous but rightly so. The kind of structure and curriculum we follow here, gives emphasis on the practical applications of the course we are studying. This helps to understand exactly how what we studied works in the real time scenario and be well prepared for future jobs and scenarios.
