B.Design (Hons.) Product Design

From childhood making artsy things to practicing do-it-yourself in my teenage days. I’d say the design has found me. It makes me who I am today. Initially, I was not sure of a career path but I did know I wanted a college life, it has always fascinated me. I thank UID for fulfilling my desire and giving me much more than just an experience. It has given me a family. UID gives me a lot of positivity and a reason to work hard every day. The atmosphere of the campus and the beauty of nature keep us fresh and grounded. The benefit UID has over other colleges is the various design fields to choose from. Another perk that comes along is that the students get an insight into all the work that is being done in the other departments which helps them think bigger. It does not limit the students but gives them more resources and opportunities in their course of design.

Design for me is a source of energy that motivates me at almost every lap of my life to get the best as well as something unique out of me and UID helped me to keep my values and thoughts open to the environment. Innovation and Creativity are the foundation, which UID helped them to grow truly and inclusively in every manner. The faculty of UID helps every student to give insight into the knowledge of their interest.

college has provided me with a base of education and experience to full fill my dream. The college has provided me with various opportunities by providing various equipped classes from stitching to printing to dying to weaving. College made me aware and provided me an opportunity to participate in various competitions all across the country and present my work and college on different levels under the guidance of the best faculty all across the world who always just try to bring the best out of you. The college has also provided me the opportunity to gain industry experience with various famous people from the industry across the work like Anju Modi, Umang Hattesingh, Julian Robert, and many more, and also helped to find an internship at the world-famous sustainable fashion designer Purvi Doshi. College not only helped me to grow my technical skills but also helped to develop my overall personality by organizing various cultural events and fests. Being a part of a UID family is one of the opportunities I ever had.

Coming into UID was one of the wise decisions I took so far now. UID gave me all sorts of platforms such as dancing, design competitions, personality awareness, and much more. The friendly environment of faculties and students lets you open your mind and reach new heights of ideas. Exposure to the reality of the industry opened my eyes and made me professional and presentable. I am intrigued to be a part of a family that is supportive, expressive, and encouraging.

The eight to nine weeks of the job training develop a practical orientation towards the functioning of the apparel industry and I am obliged to get an opportunity under South Asia’s largest manufacturing unit of lingerie, MAS Brands. I cannot be thankful enough to my HOD, Dr. Sanyogita Chadda for taking endless efforts to help me secure this internship and also for believing in me and letting me take this opportunity. The support and the help that is provided to students in UID from the Faculties are highly commendable. The motivation to work hard and prove myself out there majorly comes from all the experience gained in UID. UID has helped me grow as an individual as well as a professional.

During my time at UID, I experienced overall personality development. Learning from the best of faculties and my peers every day, I learned how to communicate confidently, put forth my ideas and implement them in the best way possible.

I am Jhanvi Mohan Chauhan, a pass-out of the 2018-2022 batch from UID & currently working on my label with experience from internships provided by the institute. I can never forget the contributions of the Fashion department and my faculties for developing those crucial skills, which are required to have a successful career. Not just the technical knowledge but also, the infrastructure, student activities, and extra curriculum sessions from the best minds on campus helped me to step out of my comfort zone, and allowed me to apply what I have learned from UID.
