National Institute of Design Ahmedabad (NID) is India’s leading institution of design with extension campuses in Gandhinagar and Bangaluru. NID is an ‘Institute of National Importance’ by the act of parliament, functions as an autonomous body under the Department for Promotion of Industry and Internal Trade (DPIIT), Ministry of Commerce & Industry, Government of India.
Embedded in its historicity are the almost surreal narratives of its founding, the resilience of its founders, and ingenuity of its faculty, staff, students and alumnae over the last 6 decades. Widely known for its innovations in pedagogy, curricula and syllabi, the NID continues to serve as a benchmark for creative learner-centric models of design education.
As part of its service mandate, the Institute has continuously responded to changing contexts over time, especially through its innovative programmes that have opened up new fields of inquiry and practice within the country. Its contribution to the both industrial and social sector is not only well documented, but palpably visible on ground.
