APPAREL AND FASHION DESIGN UNDER COURSE – CREDIT – SEMESTER SYSTEM AND GRADING AIMS AND OBJECTIVES OF THE PROGRAMME Aim: B.Sc. Apparel and Fashion Design is a six semester full time programme with an ultimate aim to create a responsible designer who will serve the country and society by innovation, education, technology and research. The course falls under an emerging area of design necessity. The yesteryear fashion designing course churned out designers for the field of clothing and its related industry but without a thorough understanding of the society, environment or technologies around them. The course is based on the core subject – “Design Thinking” with an aim of creating a ‘Responsible Designer’. This programme provides a perspective of society, environment, education, technology and innovation so that a fresh and unique approach in the fields of clothing, accessories and furnishings may be developed thereby creating more meaningful products and experiences. The syllabus of the course is designed in such a way that it provides skill development required to be a successful fashion designer along with entrepreneurial skills to set up their own venture. A unique feature of this programme is the continuous interaction of the students with society and environment through projects and providing training programmes to the needy.
