    Hello!,
    B.Sc is a 3-year programme and B. Des is a 4-year programme. B.

    The Bachelor of Design (B.Des) and B.Sc. in Interior and Furniture Design are both design-oriented programs but differ in focus and curriculum.

    • B.Des is a broader program that covers various aspects of design, including fashion design, graphic design, product design, and interior design. It offers more flexibility, allowing students to explore multiple design fields. The curriculum emphasizes creative skills, design thinking, and innovative solutions across various industries.

    This distinction basically pertains to the focal point and approach of the two disciplines.
