Does AIFD has a better fashion design course than LPU? Which college has high fees?

Imagine working in an environment where style and creativity are the focus. If this sounds like your ideal career, you may want to consider earning a degree in fashion design. Fashion design is a highly competitive and exciting industry where only the most talented professionals advance. While both the universities mentioned above help you in tailoring your dreams but being an alumni of LPU let me share the facts for the same. There is 100% Placement every year where students are placed with retail, luxury, export, buying, craft sector, fashion houses, etc. Industry interface with leading brands for summer training, full-term optional/ compulsory internships, On-job training, study tours, and skill enhancement events and workshops are extensively integrated in the LPU curricula, to expose students to real work environments and provide them an opportunity to apply their learning in real life situations. This placement can be attributed to lots of factors like Handholding through Start-up School and Entrepreneurship: It is to set up new ventures, improve upon and modernize existing business, engage in social entrepreneurship / NGO. A unique course that gives wings to the students by providing them hand on experience. Student get chance to develop their own products and sell into the university own studio Panacha. School of Design organised summer internship programme where industry experts from various field related to fashion interacted with students and gave inside about the industry. Students get a chance to attend fashion weeks by FDCI where they get to work backstage with eminent designers and deal with buyers and several clients attending the show. School of Design provides international exposure opportunities like international study trip, exchange programme, summer/research studies Some companies where students are working are Companies: - Michael Kors, Armani Exchange, Satya Paul, Genesis, Tommy Hilfiger, Raymond, Ginni & Jony, Gant, JCT, Monte Carlo, Duke, Neva, U-V & W, Rage, Shopper's Stop, DNMX, Pantaloons, HiDesign, Madame etc. This will give you enough details to make your decision.

Hi Prachi, In terms of course curriculum, training, diversity, environment for creative people, faculty, infrastructure, machinery & equipment, industry interface and placements. LPU is miles ahead of most of the other colleges, it is upgrading the system continuously. Coming to fee, you can check the site of AIFD, while the fee for 4 year B. Design programme. In LPU, scholarships depend on your performance in 10+2 or LPU NEST. While the admissions are open for B. Design are already open on its portal admission. I also heard that LPU has started COVID-19 Frontline scholarship. All the best.
