Master of Design in Fashion Design

at World University of Design India

The master’s program builds into the project and research-based inquiry of the subject and prepares the student to emerge an expert in the interdisciplinary application and negotiation of the knowledge of performing arts to negotiate and mould social and cultural behaviours. They will also engage in a largely project-based study of the implementation of these learnings and produce research studies on the impact of the performing arts on history and technology. The program is largely oriented towards producing cultural administrators.

PhD is a doctorate degree that focuses on academics and research.

The new-age Textiles Design program encompasses art, design, craft, and technology. Students in this field will acquire technical and conceptual skills to create soft products informed by material, purpose, and the sense of touch. A wide range of technical processes and topics including weaving, dyeing, printing, embellishment, surface design, felting, sewing, quilting, garment construction, knitting, crochet, laser cutting, digital print and pattern design. Students are encouraged to discover new ways of working through material experimentation. With the guidance of faculty, students develop an individualized language of colour, pattern and texture, both planar and sculptural in form.

The undergraduate course will prepare the student with a strong base in the theories of performance, the nuances of the classical, folk and contemporary arts, the rudiments of production and presentation along with rigorous insight. They will be exposed to the practical and theoretical practices of performance and introduced to literary, historical, traditional and cultural explorations of performing arts across cultures.

The Program has been designed keeping in mind the aesthetic and commercial aspects of contemporary film making and the change brought about with the advent of modern digital technology, making the medium more accessible to all. It focuses on developing a strong conceptual understanding of film as a medium of communication as well as narrative story-telling and how it can be applied as a tool of self-expression, social communication, corporate branding, advertising as well as mainstream entertainment. It aims at sensitizing the students to the core concepts of design in film form, while providing them with the necessary technical knowledge and hands-on experience with cutting edge digital tools related to video production and the cinema arts. The exhaustive core courses delve into the intricacies of film theory, screenwriting, film direction, cinematography, production design, art direction, sound design, photography, editing and video post-production.

The animation & Game Design course at WUD prepares students to create solutions through the design medium with creativity as the core focal point. This course exclusively deals with Animation, Game Development on a large scale especially focusing on the entertainment industry. During the course, students will be equipped with skills and techniques of animation and games such as Visual Development, Fundamentals of Animation And Game Development, Character Design & Story Boarding, Stop-motion, VFX for Film & Games, 3D Art, Environment Art, Character Design, Creature Design, Concept Art, Level Design, Lighting and CGI skill-set maintaining a strict level of Industry-standard practices and standards along with Industry professionals/ experts guidance and support.

Mobility has always been a basic human need. The transportation design programs at WUD focuses not only on automotive and car design but also on transportation systems across land, water, air or even space; which enhance mobility for humans and commodities.

The program considers transportation products in the context of present day economic and social needs, success or failure of existing systems and devices, and propositions for future transport solutions. It seeks to cover practical problem-solving as also solutions relevant to our future society and the environment. While topics like Emerging Technologies, Composites, Aerodynamics, Fluid Dynamics, Automobile engineering, Automotive Modeling, Transportation for Specific Needs, Vehicle Packaging Design and Use of Automotive Clay & GFRP will equip them with relevant knowledge, diverse practical projects will help students link their developmental skills, with knowledge and understanding.

Industrial Design as a profession empowers the professional to design consumer centric products and systems related to industry, medical, computer, electronics, environment, and many such verticals. An industrial designer is not just well versed in aesthetics but also has the engineering point of perspective to enable a better production technology for the product. The masters program is designed to build a critical mind that has basic design, visualization, communication and engineering skills. Students learn through free hand sketches, computer aided design (using Adobe Creative Cloud, Alias, Sketchbook, RHINO 3D etc.) various studio workshops (Metal, Plastic, Automotive Clay, Wood, Paint etc.), visiting lectures, and practical hands-on working with the materials. Students are encouraged to learn not only from the course material but also from the various disciplines related to the same. The program maintains close links with the industry, both in order to keep in touch with the latest developments in industrial processes, and to ensure that the course remains relevant and comprehensive
