Shiksha Top Questions

Hello,
It is a good question from student's point of view.(#) Degree programme: These are much high valued then Diploma. Degree like B.Arch provides profundity about an architect course than Diploma. It has more opportunities as compared to Diploma. Degree is being issued through recognized university or college. The duration of obtaining the degree of architect is greater than the duration of Diploma.
(#) Diploma programme: Like Diploma in Designing, planning, architect etc. are a Diploma course. The admission to Diploma course can be taken after clearing high school examination (class 10th). An institute, a Polytechnic, or even a university can offer a Diploma course. There is no need for the institute or the university to be UGC or AICTE approved. Both programs /courses have their own utility and valuation. But, I would suggest you to degree course, since it is approved and certified by the institution. But, if you want your career to be more accelerated, then along with the degree course, you can pursue Diploma course.

Hi,
There's no second thought before I write this. Of course, it has to be NID, as it's an institute of national importance. AAFT, on the other hand is a private institute and is known for B.Des as well. NID is best known for design courses, and you will have ample of opportunities after passing out from there. Coming to it's placements, several graduates tend to start their own studio. According to LinkedIn, 377 out of 3500 graduates are Entrepreneurs (Nowhere close to the 60% stat by Sumit Shah, but I hope he can give some source). Popular companies (based on no. Of NIDians employed) are Cognizant, Microsoft, SAP, Adobe, Samsung, Godrej, HFI etc.
All your main/subject questions lead to one destination that is how much money you can earn after graduating from NID. If that is the only concern you have, then start your own business to earn. NID won't teach you how to earn money. You have to use your 100% brains, if you have to be on the top. How NID can help you to put you in good companies? It also depends on the stream you apply for. \
Now look at another scenario. Let's say you love textile design, and you want to apply for Textile/Apparel design at NID, right. What if I tell you that go for some of the UX related courses in NID to get more packages, will you just listen to me and go ahead with it? If yes, then you have got no passion for a particular design rather than earning money. If that is the case, then stop doing it. Have a vision where do you want to be and as a what. You will earn money for sure after graduating from colleges, like NID or IIT that would take some time along with the level of industry experience you have.

Hi, NIFT is undoubtedly the best Institute in India and is well reputed internationally as well.nNIFT Alumni are always given an edge over the other colleaguesnYou can apply for scholarships, which is given on the basis of merit, financial background or bothnIn Design course, you do have a lot of projects and submissions. Yes, it does involve extra expenses. On an average you'll be spending approximately 6-7000 on them. But they do add to your portfolio and are totally worth it.nIn terms of package, you can expect a min of 23-25000 INR pm in hand.nYou do have a lot of spare time during the course. So, you can always utilize them to earn few extra bucks.nIf you are very much interested in design and strongly want to pursue it as your profession, Ill say yes. But if you are not sure about it, don't take it forward. Design is too much of hard work and extensive research and getting practical as well as balancing the artsy side. Most don't find it suitable and that become their the worst decision. So if you really want to ask if its worth, ask yourself will you able to? And how interested are you? All the best.

Hello,
The degree of Ph.D in Planning and Architecture will not just open the door of Research field in India, but also in some foreign countries. Completing a degree in architecture at doctorate level can be a long and arduous process, but also wonderfully rewarding. After getting a Ph.D degree in Architecture, you can opt for many profession viz, Research Architect. In this, you will not necessarily focus in designing buildings, but focusing more on how these new tools can enhance our work.
Extreme Architect: Being an architect, who specializes in extreme weather conditions is therefore not only an incredibly fascinating way to tackle the subject, but also a way to earn a big chunk of money.
Industrial Designer: Not just the designing the companies, but also the layout of factories, and warehouse. However, industrial design focuses on smaller scale objects of mass production, as opposed to large-scale buildings designed for a specific context.

Hi,
Look, if you are going for B.Des course, then Amity is not considered as a relatable University. For B.Des courses, there are many other better options such as NID, NIFT, Pearl, Srishti, IIAD to just name a few.
So, if you really looking forward for design career and you want to do good in it, then I would suggest you to go wtlith NID or NIFT, depending on the course, try their entrances. If you really have that creative eye on you, you'll definitely go through those entrances.
Amity University is a renowned university, but it's always better to go with a course specialisation college. For eg. Colleges such as NIFT are specialised in design career, but if we talk about Amity, then it's not the same. The University offers multiple courses, so it's always a risk for students in going with them.
Whereas NID is the most appropriate college for product design in India.
Hope this answer is useful to you.
All the best!

Hello,
Coming straight to your query, there are large number of options available to you. You can join any of the institutes from FITJEE, Study Mate, Allen Career, Resonance, Rao IIT Academy and etc. But, let me clarify you on one thing that only good selection of coaching institute will not help you to conquer over the dream. You have to make plan & strategy by yourself.
The best coaching out of these are Resonance & Rao IIT Academy. These both institutes have well past experience for successfully selection of children in various big college for Architecture studies. They are having very good, trained, qualified and experienced faculty for the effective training of children. JEE Mains Paper 2 exam is not an easy exam. You have to do lot more hard work to clear this exam. Hence, my suggestion is that while doing selection of the best coaching institute try to spend some time on doing some research on your own parameters to make the best chosen.

Hello,
As per my suggestion, you don't need any sort of 'coaching' or something to prepare for BVP CET B.Arch examination. Because, the level of this exam is not as hard as you think for JEE Mains Paper 2 or AAT. If you are well prepared with your self-study, then you may score a very good score in this exam. To specific for your query, if you are planning to give the exam for BVP CET along with JEEs, NATA etc., then you might requires coaching institute. So, in this condition, the coaching institute like FIITJEE, Allen Career institute could help you up to some extent. Why I am saying 'some extent' is because the result is based on your preparation. You have to manage your day, your school, your coaching planning as your caliber.
Hence, my suggestion is, if you are going to appear in only BVP CET examination, then you are not required to join any coaching class.

You need to listen to good radio jockeys so that you can understand their style and later, with practice, develop your own. You need to understand what the masses need and give them just that.Radio Jockey Eligibility Criteria What matters the most in this career path is, obviously your voice.
