I did my bachelors in mechanical engineering and then enrolled in a Product Design course at Mantra Academy.
Before applying for a master's in Design, I searched for Coimbatore, Bangalore, and Mumbai institutions. However, all of them focus on CAD training and not the core product design training that I expected. However, when I inquired at Mantra during my conversation, I realized they focus heavily on research, which is my area of interest.
Product Design training at Mantra academy is best suited for people passionate about Design because the training is multidisciplinary and collaborative in nature. Sometimes it's too much pressure to handle.
Upon course completion, I got placed as a Vice President in a durable consumer startup. Later, I got accepted into the prestigious National Institute of Design (NID) in the postgraduate product design course.
