Admissions are open for NMIMS School of Design’s 4-year B.Des. (Humanising Technology) program at its Mumbai campus.
An undergraduate program in Design is fast gaining prominence at a time when artistic creativity and a passion for technology and business are coming together to create user-friendly solutions that make day to day life simple for people. SVKM’s NMIMS School of Design’s AICTE approved 4-year undergraduate B.Des. (Humanising Technology) program combines design with technology and cognitive and behavioural sciences to effectively serve business and social needs. It offers a transdisciplinary and holistic design curriculum with focus on a user-centric approach to design education, giving it a human touch. The program aims to equip students with multi-stream skill sets and knowledge to visualize 2D, 3D and 5D experiences. The school has been ranked 5th among design schools of Maharashtra and 11th among design schools in India by Careers360 in 2022.
The pedagogy at the school is interactive and experiential where lessons are imparted by highly qualified and trained faculty apart from expert industry professionals. The students are encouraged to apply themselves, be curious and ‘learn by doing’. This has resulted in a steady outflow of pass outs who are not only artistic and creative, but also possess the ability to think strategically. The SVKM’s NMIMS School of Design is equipped with state-of-the-art studios, workshops, and modern labs like the Tinkering lab, Rapid Prototyping lab, XR (Extended Reality), and a usability lab for hands-on experience. Students are also offered internships in the industry which allows them to gain practical knowledge in the field of design. This exposure opens up several avenues and job opportunities in the field of consulting, hospitality, IT, banking, healthcare, education, and tourism, among other sectors. NMIMS’ School of Design achieved a 100% placement record for the second time in a row, wherein the students got placed in top companies. Walmart Global Technology Services India Private Ltd was among the new recruiters and offered a package of Rs. 20, 27,100 for the post of Associate Designer.
Talking about the program Dr. Arundhati Guha Thakurta, Faculty In-Charge, NMIMS School of Design, said, “A fine balance of creative abilities and analytical thinking is important for a lifelong problem solver. The school, with its transdisciplinary, value-based design education, equips the students with a global perspective in the competitive design world, inculcating an entrepreneurial mindset. Our comprehensive curriculum further sensitizes our students to the world of design. Our highly trained in-house faculty and visiting industry experts act like mentors to help unleash the hidden talent in the students and hone their skills through methods like practice-based and gamified learning. The program focuses on human-centered design, human factors or ergonomics, behavioral studies, aesthetics in product design and innovation, digital design, creative problem-solving, and creative entrepreneurship, among other skills. An invaluable NGO and industry internship ensures that our students gain enough knowledge of the design world and ushers in them the confidence to put their best foot forward as they emerge as future design thinkers and become working professionals.”
