Remarks :
The College has a great reputation and thought my stream, BSc. in Animation may be relatively new in the college, they have a great history and connection with the industry. The faculty is also reputed and has practical experience so they guide us that way, so that by the time we are out of college we are ready for the real world challenges. The admission process was done smoothly and hassle free. They checked our portfolio, whether we would be apt for this stream and then only did the further admission process. This college has a degree in BSc. in Animation which very few colleges affiliated with the Pune University offer. Their infrastructure for this stream is also solid and have all the necessary means to conduct all modules and classes. Maybe some technology may be a little old or new equipment can be introduced but overall it has everything we need.
Course Curriculum Overview :
This course has a mixture of technical learning along with creative thinking. It teaches you all the software and technical knowledge to actually harness your creativity and make it ready for the practical world. If you can't sell your design, what is the use of such hard work? This was the basic explanation I gave myself when I went to enroll into this college. There are about 25 students in our batch and faculty is numbered from 1-2 for each module which is more than enough for 1 class, for each subject. All the faculties have worked prior in the industry and then have come to teach us, so when they teach, they teach out of knowledge as well as experience. The exams were conducted a little late, but that again wasn't in the hands of the college as that is decided by the university.
Placement Experience :
We are allowed to find internships and work on our own amidst this Covid situation. At the end of the our last year, we have a final project through which we have to cumulate all our knowledge and based on that we get our degree and our portfolio is built. There are on campus recruiting, where many renowned companies have come for placements. There is a 100% placement record maintained by our alumni. The highest pack was bagged by a student with over 30,000 /- per month. My plans are to work in a production studio where I can work closely with designers in game production, movie production and digital design.
Loan/ Scholarship Provisions :
The fee is good compared to design schools. But considering that this stream is newly introduced in this college and the infrastructure is still in the building process, maybe it could have been a little less. But again, there is everything we need and all the necessary equipment is provided so no regrets.
Campus Life :
There are many activities conducted in the college. There are fashion shows, there are annual fests and even gatherings. Many known celebrities have walked through the doors and given us speeches and made the evening with their presence. We have 1-2 events every month, so the atmosphere is lively throughout the college. There is a huge library in the college, with almost every book on every subject. I sometimes even checkout books which are not of my stream just because they looked interesting and as a matter of fact, they turned out very interesting. We have sports teams in volleyball, basketball, cricket and many physical activities are encouraged in our campus.
