A Bachelor of Design (B.Des) is an undergraduate degree that aims to develop creativity, technical expertise, and design thinking in a range of disciplines including fashion, graphic design, interior design, industrial design, and communication design. The course combines theoretical learning with practical application, allowing students to experiment with aesthetics, functionality, and user experience. Core courses usually consist of design principles, digital design software, material research, and history of design, while electives enable specialization in a field such as UI/UX design, animation, or sustainable design. Workshops, internships, and live projects are often added to most programs to provide industry exposure.
B.Des graduates can find employment in various industries like fashion houses, advertising agencies, product manufacturing, and digital media. They can be employed as graphic designers, product designers, UX/UI designers, or fashion stylists. The course also offers a good platform for entrepreneurship or higher studies like a Master of Design (M.Des) or an MBA in design management.
