JD has provided me with a platform to develop a new way of thinking and hone my creative skills. What I learned during my term at JD was that learning is not dependent on a structure. Discipline is necessary and consistency is definitely the key to it. The more you learn, the more you want to learn; the world becomes interesting to you and discovering it becomes fun. Your vision need not be a one-track course. One has to expand their thoughts, and think beyond the set boundaries. You have to take a chance and step out of your comfort zone.

My life at JD was a roller coaster ride but it was a thrilling experience. I got a lot of real-world practical exposure under the guidance of the entire faculty team, which is invaluable to a student. After finishing my Bachelor's program, I got the opportunity to intern with a global brand like Levis through JD placements, and it was an amazing experience. I am really grateful to JD for giving me all the support and transforming me into an industry-ready professional.

Looking back now, coming to JD was one of the best decisions I could have taken for my career. I got to learn a lot through numerous platforms and opportunities that are created by the institute for people who love design. JD conducted several workshops and seminars, and they gave us many opportunities to get hands-on exposure and interact with industry experts. At the end of the program, we had a show where we could present our creations, and it was a huge confidence boost for all of us.
