Designers are needed everywhere, irrespective of the field of operation. The demand for designing related courses have skyrocketed over the years as the preference has shifted from technical courses to the more creatively demanding ones. The diversified design territory offers a host of options and specializations which makes it very attractive to young students looking for something offbeat.
Fashion, textile and interior designing courses have always had its fair share of takers but Animation in particular has seen a tremendous rise in recent memory. According to a study, the Animation and VFX industry is set to be worth Rs. 11360 crores by 2020 and this spike in demand will naturally translate to more job creation.
The positive awareness regarding design education and its career prospects has brought about a big growth in the demand. In a survey done by the British Council in partnership with India Design Council, the number of design-centric institutes has grown from a few in 2010 to 70+ recognized institutions as of today. The government too has acknowledged the demand and has gone about opening up branches of National Institute of Design (NID) all across the country.
Now is undoubtedly the best time to get into designing as the scope is immense.
