Message from
the Dean

I firmly believe, design is simply thinking made visible. If we look back at the continuous changing trends of the society, we can realize that design keeps evolving continuously, so no two days are the same. The only way to cope up with these dynamic changes is to educate the prospective students according to the latest academic model. At Faculty of Design, our focus is towards encouraging the students from all the distinctive courses towards creativity and innovation. The faculty plays an active role in providing a hands on experience and industrial exposure to make the students competitive enough, before they face the real world market. We go on to expose our students to some of the experts in the field, who go on to provide our students with an insightful knowledge and understanding. As the Dean of Faculty of Design, I welcome each and everyone of you to this ever evolving space of creative innovation.

Prof. Prabhas C Pandey

What Students Say

From the very first day, I had an outstanding experience studying at PU Faculty of Architecture. Since, the university had a limited intake, it got easier for me as well as others to interact properly in class, understand the concepts and have more one to one interaction with the professors.
