Inside the creative ecosystem where great mentorship happens every single day.
Prof. Ananya's classes completely changed how I think about fabric and form. Her live industry insights and international fashion experience gave me a perspective that no textbook could have provided.
Dr. Mehta doesn't just teach space design — he teaches you to feel it. His mentorship during my final-year project opened doors to my very first internship at a leading architecture firm.
Having Mr. Dev Patel as a visiting mentor was a highlight of my entire degree. A real tech-design industry leader sharing live methodologies from Zomato was invaluable for my career.
