Warm Greetings from the School of Design!

It gives me immense pleasure to welcome you all to the School of Fashion and Interior Design, Chandigarh University, Unnao, Uttar Pradesh. The Department of Fashion Design and Interior Design has been envisioned with a very clear and creative philosophy - to nurture innovation, to encourage original thought, and to provide absolute freedom for creative expression. Our students of Fashion Design and Interior Design are not just learning; they are collaborating to create new definitions of design. With the unwavering support of the University, through advanced classes, an industry-integrated curriculum, and a vibrant academic ecosystem, Chandigarh University is about to write a new chapter in the field of design education.

This is our First Batch, and this is our Golden Batch. The creativity, market surveys, research work, workshops, and design thinking demonstrated by these young designers are truly exceptional. I firmly believe that in the coming years, their work will place Chandigarh University among the Top 10 Universities of India in the design domain.

Chandigarh University, Unnao is perhaps the first university in Uttar Pradesh to have such a large and dedicated Department for Fashion, Interiors and Design, where students are given complete freedom to explore, experiment and excel. We are committed to providing our students with both National and International exposure - the kind of exposure that is essential for success in the global fashion and interiors industry. The world-class infrastructure, large design studios, AI-based technology, top-notch laboratories, international standard curriculum, highly experienced faculty, continuous industry visits, craft clusters, masterclasses and sessions by eminent visiting faculty are empowering our students to grow exponentially - Din Dugni Raat Chauguni. I am confident that Chandigarh University will soon emerge as the most sought-after destination for design education in India, as we are not just teaching design; we are shaping careers, building lives and nurturing future global icons.
