Courses and preferred Institutions after CEED exam
Before going through the preferred institutions providing M.Des and Ph.D in various design fields, let me remind you that qualifying in CEED exam doesn't guarantee you for admission in any of the below institution as well as programme. After cracking CEED, you are required to go through the preferred institution website and apply to respective programme. You can even apply for multiple courses.
Short-listed candidates with valid CEED score will be called for the departmental written test (Design Aptitude Test, Studio Tests etc) followed by interviews conducted by the institutions, which usually happens yearly anywhere between March and June, as part of M.Des admission. Every institution has their own style of tests and interviews. CEED score (Part B) as well as marks obtained in written test and interviews are considered for final admission. CEED score is valid for two years.
A. List of various Design streams
Following are very few design streams (for M.Des) that you can opt after clearing through CEED :
- Product Design
- Industrial Design
- Visual Communication
- Animation
- Mobility and Vehicle Design
- Interaction Design
You may check the descriptions of some design streams here (LINK)

DeleteIIT IDC or NID?? which one is preferable i mean, which one is best??
ReplyDeleteHi Amol,
DeleteAs per my view, IIT IDC is better, in fact I prefer IDC only, because I hope NID is best for students totally good at artistic skills and IDC is a mix of tech and design. But anyway please note that NID is one of the best institutions even in the world for creative minded people. What do u think ?
your blog is really helpful. Keep up the great work!
ReplyDeleteThank u and all the best :)
DeleteThis design is incredible! You certainly know how to keep a reader amused.

hi
ReplyDeleteim giving for the MITID-DAT 2014.please suggest me about how to prepare for it,and model papers or ref books if any?
Hi Vaibhavi,
DeleteFirst of all, sorry for giving very late reply, I was with some other work. Regarding your query, I had given my views in the next comment. So, please do check and clarify your doubt, if you have any further doubts, feel free to comment, I will try to give my views. Once again sorry for replying late. All the best :)
Can i know the question that are asked during the interview for M.Des?
ReplyDeleteHi Nainika and Vaibhavi,
DeleteUnfortunately I don't know much about interview pattern (because I never faced design interview anytime before), but the following topics/tips might help you
1. First of all you should be in a position to clearly communicate/explain your passion for design. Yes, it's true that interview panel firstly check your interest for that stream or overall design. So, its advisable to make some clear lists of following :
a. Your interest rate
b. Why you are opting design as career ?
c. Is that suited for you ? (by explaining your previous design works)
d. What you can contribute as a designer ?
e. Any of your future plans
2. Major part of the questions were expected from your own portfolio. So, it's better if you prepare well on "HOW TO EXPRESS YOUR PORTFOLIO" prepare a list of things to be covered in your explanation and revise the same many times. Anyway your portfolio itself should explain everything !
3. Next; they might be checking your design ability, so like you prepared for CEED, please do the same preparation (an overview) of the topics, I also expect some General awareness questions. I even heard that they will ask some simple aptitude questions
4. You should be good at communication and friendly behaviour while at interview.
5. They may give a design question (or) creative exercise (or) any story writing , so be prepared for it.
6. You are also advised to get prepared for some hands-on exercises.
5. Other than the above, please prepare just like you prepare for any other interviews (like software selection) like explanation about yourself, your passions/interests, aims, strengths and so on.
Finally I would like you to make an overview of
1. Color patterns, know about famous designs and designers
2. Sketching (esp. making of strips, stick figures)
3. Short and quick story making as well as writing
4. A list of things to be explained.
5. Most Importantly practice before a mirror by giving all explanations that you prepared, that will definitely help you build your communication and confidence level.
These are just my views. Hope this helped you two.
All the best :)
IIT IDC Animation or NID Animation film design??? which one is better???
ReplyDeleteIt depends on your score. I prefer IITB IDC Animation.
DeleteBut anyway I hope, for those who wants to explore career abroad - NID Animation can be a better option. For career as animator in India, IITB can be preferred. I need to confirm that anyway ! Please check from your end too.
plz confirm and let me knw....coz this blog helped me a lot...from ceed to IDC interview....now m waiting for IDC final results on 31st March.......and i cleared NID phase 1....nw going for the intrvw at ahmedabad....so plzzz...let me knw......
ReplyDeleteHi Anagh,
DeleteFirst of all congrats for your achievements. Clearing CEED as well as NID is a great thing and I'm glad to hear that my blog helped you.
Anyway I would be happy to help you, but please leave let me know your question ! what you wish to ask here ?
thanks Bhanu....my question was which one is better for learning Animation...IDC is BEST for industrial design that everybody knows....but...in animation??? and what about placements for animation students ???? and beside IDC....only one option is left i.e. NID
ReplyDeleteHi Anagh,
DeleteAlthough IDC is good for Industrial Design, you can see not all IIT's support Animation. So the left option is NID. Animation has very good future (especially for Indian animators) both in India and abroad, so it's not a bad idea to opt AD. Both IDC and NID are good for Animation and if you are particularly interested towards technical point of Animation, I think you can prefer IDC, I can also say you can prefer any design stream from IDC.
m selected for IDC...... hurrayyy...thanks Bhanu...
ReplyDeleteHello Anagh,
DeleteThat's really a fantastic news. Being in IDC, you will enjoy an awesome college life along with a great career. Enjoy to the fullest and all the very best :)
Hope to see you in IIT B !
Hi,
ReplyDeleteWould you have any idea about which of these rank great for interaction and communication design? I couldn't achieve IDC IIT Bombay or NID.
Are the others good?
Hi Mitali,
DeleteSince you have already missed IDC and NID, You are left with three options
1. Choosing most similar design streams like Industrial design or even Product design. Industrial design is more or less equivalent to IXD except for some minor difference. Even PD caters the needs of both IXD or ID. So, if you can compromise, then try to get these courses from any other IIT's, preferably IITD and IISC.
2. Waiting one more year to give one more try ! I would recommend this only if you are say working or if you are capable of sparing some more months. I had a reason to say this, remember being a designer means you need to have lots of passion towards that stream and without passion, there won't be good future. So, if you are particularly passionate about IXD and if you have time, better to watch for next exam.
3. Finally, Private institutes matters. I never recommended private institutes to anybody till now. I feel that getting graduation from IIT's or even NID have more value. In fact it would cost more in private institutes. If you can afford for the expenses and compromise being away from IIT, then you may definitely try for some colleges like MIT and even DJ institute. I don't have knowledge about the career prospects of these institutes. If found I will share here.
One more thing Bhasin, I used to say that design capabilities are obtained right from the childhood. It's definitely true, but it's also true that one can develop design skills in the middle. Even I started developing this recently. So, if you are confident, then you may go for Visual communications or any other design streams also. After all all design streams are related to aesthetics/ergonomics ! So, choice is yours unwrap your diverse talent and choose alternatives. If you have missed IXD that's not an issue, check your interests in other streams also. You will have bright future.
Hope this help you answer your other question regarding VC also.
All the best :)
Hi,
ReplyDeleteAs i'm called for the M.Des interview based on my GATE 2014 score, can i get some tips for the interview ????
Hi Shivam,
DeleteGood to hear that you received M.Des interview call, that too through GATE ! Great and congrats.
Ok, regarding your query on some tips for interview, I had already given interview tips for some of our friends in this post. You may check the reply to the comments of Nainika and Vaibhavi (just above this comments).
Or else just go through the following link for detailed tips - CEED/M.Des Interview tips - Stuff You Look
All the best with your interview :)
Hi Bhanu,
ReplyDeleteI want to know the difference between M.Des and Post Graduate Diploma Program . are they both equivalent ?? can a PGDP student opt for PhD futher ????
Hi Darshan,
DeleteHmm, How can I put ? I think the difference is more or less like B.Tech and B.E !
If you are an engineering student, then you should've understood by now. Both B.Tech and B.E are same but just with the degree. Similarly, I hope both PGDPD and M.Des are more or less same, anyway both are Post graduate program's !
Design PG from IIT's and some other institutes were named as M.Des while NID termed the PG program as 'PGDPD' and YES those having PG diploma in Design can further opt for Ph.D in IIT's also.
Hope you got the answers :)
fst of all i would like 2 than 2 yu. your blog is really very helful for those who r really join an industrial designing course in different college in indian especially iit.here m a student of bachelor of design n m a good enough hand in sketching n designing and would like 2 prepare for CEED. so how would i prepare myself for this tough runng
DeleteHi Krishna,
DeleteThank you for the acknowledgement.
Let me tell you one thing - I worked in every respect to make this blog, most understandable - that is supposed to cover all the parts of CEED process. I'm happy I did it and i'm still improving it. You may go through almost all this blog posts to answer all your questions. Nothing left for me to discuss.
Anyway - here is a link that would help you with your questions -
How to start and what to practice for CEED exam
Hope this helps and thanks for commenting :)
hi i would like to know about the scholarship program in mdes during course .
ReplyDeletelike you in mtech.
thanks
As per my knowledge, there's no scholarship provision for mdes students like M.Tech or even MS students usually receive. Anyway please contact prospect students or seniors to confirm the same.
Deleteactually i am pursuing final year degree in mechanical engg.
ReplyDeleteand very much interested in design ..
thanks ..sir
Your blog is really helpful ..
hello bhanu, which is the best institute to go through CEED if looked from the point of view of consistent placement record from past few years...
ReplyDeleteIITB has good placement records, and IIT Kanpur is also good
DeleteHi Bhanu,
ReplyDeleteFor design, no doubt NID and IDC are in top list.
But, can you please tell if UPES, Dehradun or Maeer's MIT are good choices for studying design ?
UPES is definitely a good option if you couldn't get into IIT's or NID, you might also look for IIITDM and some private (If the options are not available for u) institutes like Pearl, MIT Pune etc, although I'm not much sure about Maeer's MIT.
DeleteStumbled upon this blog a year ago. Got fascinated about Design and the courses. I felt the exam was interesting.Then i came to know about Part B of exam. It kind of got me intimidated.
ReplyDeleteBut anyways, I'm looking forward top prepare for it. But What should be my motivation to appear for the exam. How do i know that this is my field, or that i have an aptitude for design. What questions should i ask myself before plunging deep into it.
You probably haven't checked this page. If checked then im sure you wouldn't need me to answer your question!
DeleteIs Mdes best for you ? - know yourselves
Hope, the page will clear your doubts :)
Hello Bhanu Sir !!!
ReplyDeleteFirst of all Thank you so much for all your helpful support here, I am sure a lot of students are getting the advantages of your blogs.
My query is that unfortunately I could not make it to NID this year for MDes, however, I have got selected in two private colleges, DYPDC Pune and UPES Dehradun. But I am confused now about which college to opt between these two. My passion is Automobile Design. So, please help me on this, I would really appreciate or suggestions.
Thank You,
Ricky Singh
My preference will be DYPDC, although the fees are high but still it's specific and good for auto mobile design. UPES design is also a good choice but for me it's a second option.
DeleteYa Sir !!!
DeleteFees is my only concern, anyways will go for DYPDC only as it is specifically dedicated to Automobile Design. Moreover, one more suggestion I need from you sir, I am also writing the MIT Pune's exam for MDes, which will be held in the month of April. So, if I ask you between DYPDC and MIT Pune, which one would be the better option..?
Thank You in advance Sir.
I mostly heard gud reviews about MIT, but not much sure about this specific stream (Transportation & Mobility). Do one thing, compare the placements percentage and the companies offering openings every year in all the three institutes. That itself should give you idea on which one to choose. If possible check their syllabus structure too.
DeleteHello Bhanu Sir,
ReplyDeleteI qualified in my CEED 2016, thanks to your blog.
I wanted to apply for interaction design. I was wondering after IDC iit kanpur and IIT guwahati offers you an overall masters course and not separate courses like IDC. So where do these two stand when compared to IDC in terms of design.?
They are good to be considered. Although most prefer IDC (may be due to hype or placements) but still IIT Kanpur ie equally good so is IIT Guwahati. I came to know that in 2014, a candidate with AIR 2 took IITG instead of IIT B. So, you should now know their importance. Just look into the course structure and see which suits you.
DeleteHi Banu. I just qualified CEED 16 with a rank of 470, part B 32 marks. I would like to know if I have any chance of getting into IISC bngr.
ReplyDeleteReally appreciate your help.
Hope to hear from you soon.
And Yeah I forgot to mention that your blog was the only reference I had. Thanks for that too..
I think u won't be able to get in IISC. Go for IIT's other than IITB etc, esp. for that rank I think your chances for IIITDM and IIIT Hyd might be high. Anyway chk individual insti cutoff for further selection. Mine is just a review based iiin previous years selections.
DeleteThanks for the Reply Bhanu.
DeleteDo you think I have a small chance of getting into an IIT.
Or am I only able to get into an IIIT.
I would like to inform you that you are the only source for my dreams in a designing career. hope to get a reply soon because I have not applied to any institute and the time is short.
I already gave u the clue in the above comment. I'm not pretty sure about IIT selection, but you might get chances in IIITDM and others. Like I said above, plz check individual insti cutoff and apply accordingly if ur rank is accepted by them. Check IIT G too!
Deletethanks for your time.
DeleteHi bhanu .
ReplyDeleteI was searching for information about IDC and NID master's. I found u r blog .
And u r doing awesome thanks ,it helps a lot . thanks
My question is do you know any thing about eligibility criteria for ceed and nid .
I did g.d art
10+ 5 years
In ceed and nid I found tha g.d art student need one year post experience do you know anything about that .
hello Rajesh, I'm not sure about that, if they've mentioned means that should be taken for granted.
DeleteThanks for the reply bhanu.
DeleteHi Bhanu, what is your view on Srishti Insitute of Art and Design in Bangalore ?
ReplyDeleteNot really sure,
Deletebut first option should be IIT's, IISC followed by IITDM/UPES. If you miss them, then yes among the available private institutes, you can check for Srishti, MIT, Symbiosis and even Raffle's can be good option. Better get reviews from prospect students.
Hi sir your blog is just too much helpfull thankyou.....i have a dought, im intrested in autmobile designing so what will be the better optn NID or IDC?as concern with job opportinuties futhers for this colleges also..
ReplyDeleteIDC will be better tou, or go for private institutes like DYPDC but those r bit costly!
DeleteHello Sir! I have cleared CEED 2017 this year with an open rank 221 scoring 46 marks in Part B, Category rank in SC is 31. Please let me know my chances of getting into IITs and IISC. Do reply..
ReplyDeleteV good chance, happy for u, congrats:)
DeleteThank you sir!Your blog helped me a lot ! :)
DeleteAlso, since I am a final year Architecture student will it be okay to add small parts of projects related to my ug field in my portfolio? And during the interview I have even heard that they ask about technical stuffs.It will be highly helpful if you could kindly explain about it..
ReplyDeleteYa, you can include small part just like u planned. Technical stuff in their view (whoever suggested you) might be related to the working or operation of say a product if you're applying to product design, like the mechanism involved etc. It might not be that deeper but may be a basic observation that they would test upon you. I don't see any specific matl or webpage for that. It should be based on your observation and little of logical thinking of the way you answer the technical stuff (say the mechanism) to them. So, apart from ur portfolio and studio test prep works, do observe some daily used products/objects working (if for PD) and similar to other design if applicable, like for another instance, say the frame to frame transaction tools/process o=in case of anim design.
Deletehello sir i have cleared CEED 2017..with 32 marks (OBC)....i just want to ask that do IITs have individual cut off??
ReplyDeletewhat's ur general n category score ? n yes individual iit's have their own cutoff. Do check their applications/admission notifications. All the best
DeleteSir, I have scored 41 in Ceed GC-357 rank. my interest is basically Transportation and mobility design and industrial design. Please can you tell me the colleges best suitable 4 me which are not very expensive and also am I eligible for IITs?
ReplyDeleteI have a rank of 553 and obc category rank of 155. Do you think I got any chances to be called for an interview. Help me out please
ReplyDeleteThing is you won't get an interview call unless you don't apply to their institute. You've to apply to individual institute.
DeleteGo throught the institute websites and check the cutoff's that they ask. If ur rank/score is eligible for applying, then you can apply for them and if they shortlist, you will get an interview call.
Sir, I have got admission in IIT Delhi and IISc Bangalore.
ReplyDeleteWhich one should I choose?
Or is IIT Guwahati and IIT Kanpur better choices?
Let me tell u briefly about the basic diff between iisc cpdm and rest IIT's
Delete"MDes from IISC is more of industry oriented and stuff like design through technical/engg. is included in the course content, it’s more of engineering way, but mdes from IIT Bombay has more emphasis towards design and comparatively less technical oriented. You can check course content in individual websites and compare the subjects that they are delivering for more insight."
Now that I've given short diff, and assuming that you have good product design cum tech skills (since u cracked iisc), let me list out based on which person like me would follow
1. IISC
2. IITK
3. IITG
4. IITD
This is how I choose. It's upto you though! all the best and yes congrats :)
Hello Bhanu sir :) I have a doubt regarding CEED Exam. I wanted to know whether its mandatory to opt for the question of same domain, which I want to apply for MDes? For example, if I opt for an Interaction Design question of Part B (the question that carries 50 marks alone) and after qualifying CEED, if I want to apply for Visual Communication, then will that affect? and if yes, then how?
ReplyDeletethis is always a doubt to most of the aspirants.
DeleteLet me tell, it's not mandatory to attempt stream specific ques unless you're really and confident of attaining more marks attempting that ques. If in case you feel the stream specific ques is time consuming, or even tough or difficult to attempt because of having less ideas on that, then going with the idea of 'attempt only stream specific' then you might end up getting less score.
Remember
1. First thing is clearing the exam with high score is imp.
2. Not only matters stream concern.
which one is better -
1. getting high score by attempting the ques which would fetch u gud score not bothering about the stream and the ques of which u felt easy, having idea on that, and not much time consuming
2. getting less score by attempting stream specific ques.
In the later case, if by chance the attempt didn't went well, then u might end up choosing ur desired stream but in not-targeted institutes.
In the first case, if u got good score, then during the interviews at the target institutes, u can showcase ur interest in the stream u wished to take. You can convince them by way of portfolio and telling them verbally, stating ur interest. I think that is the best way.
In fact CEED is a common entrance and if u have observed prev papers, u should have observed that not all stream ques are covered every year. Does the admissions for the given stream specific ques occurs ? hope this makes sense. So, prepare in general, though u can give much attention to ur desired stream but don't neglect other streams. For safer side, at least u shld be ready to answer st least two streams, in particular Product design, the second can be UI or even VC/animation frames.
Hope this makes sense.
Thank you so much sir, it really makes sense now, I understood what you are trying to explain me, very well. Thank you again :) Sir, just one more request, can you please provide the NID 2017 answer key or solved paper, if possible. It would be very helpful:)
