Hear from students who turned their passion for design into a rewarding career through PIID's Diploma program.
The Diploma course at PIID completely transformed how I see spaces. The faculty are incredibly hands-on and the curriculum is structured to take you from absolute beginner to job-ready designer in just one year.
I had zero background in design before joining PIID. The Diploma program gave me the foundation, the software skills, and the portfolio I needed to land a role at a top design studio within two months of graduating.
The site visits and practical sessions made all the difference. Learning AutoCAD and SketchUp alongside real project briefs meant I walked into my first job already knowing exactly what to do.
Any student who has passed 10+2 from a recognised board is eligible — regardless of stream (Arts, Science, or Commerce). A passion for design and creativity is all you need. No prior design experience is required.
The Diploma in Interior Designing is a 1-year program divided into two semesters of 6 months each. Classes are conducted on weekdays with dedicated practical and studio sessions throughout the year.
