About INSD Pune, Pimpri-Chinchwad
International School of Design is one of the evolving institutes of today that focuses majorly on the relationship of students and the working design industry. INSD is not only an institute that works towards creating brighter, sharper minds and polishing existing skills that students show in their everyday lectures but also concentrates on the ever so developing trends, industry requirements and how the students can act as those missing jigsaw puzzle pieces and make the design world a far more creative and a space to invent new technology, ideas in terms of design.
The brand has collaborated with The India Runway Week as their educational partner in September 2015 which sets new milestones for budding designers and helps them emerge as technically competent professionals.
The major problems in today’s generation comes from giving too much weightage to either practical learning or to theoretical knowledge and failing to find the right balance. Today we are looking at creating minds who not only have a strong base for learning but are creating design projects by using both skills of theory and practical design making to shine bright and stand out in their work.
Providing quality education by setting high academic standards and providing hands-on learning experience to its students is one major factor of INSD that helps students find their niche and work towards their goal with the help of their mentors. All the mentors for several programmes that INSD offers come with a very strong design background, good education and working experience.
Furthermore, it is important for students to learn how to think critically about their work and be able to analyze it from different perspectives.The goal of education should not just be about passing tests or getting good grades; instead it should be about learning how to think creatively and critically so that students can become successful adults in their chosen careers.
