Which are the institutes that accept UCEED results?

UCEED (Undergraduate Common Entrance Exam for Design) is an exam of which many institutes are a part. So if you are interested in applying, or already have, then I am guessing you would also want to know about those institutes.

If that’s the case, then continue reading.

1. IDC School of Design, IIT Bombay

IDC School of Design (IDC) previously known as Industrial Design Centre at IIT Bombay has a well-established Master of Design (M. Des) degree programme in Industrial Design, Communication Design, Animation Design, Interaction Design & Mobility and Vehicle Design, as well as a PhD programme in Design.

IDC offers a four year, eight semester Bachelor of Design (B. Des) programme and a five year, ten semester dual degree (B. Des + M. Des) programme. However, the option of doing the dual degree (B. Des + M. Des) will be available only at the end of the 3rd year. Both these programmes would be credit-based and thus offer the flexibility to progress at one’s own pace. A minimum level of performance is essential for satisfactory progress. The medium of instruction is English.
