We are proud to present thesis show of 9th Batch and extend my wishes to the graduating students who have successfully produced excellent quality work in these testing times. I appreciate the efforts of my colleagues, thesis coordinator and all supervising faculty for guiding the students through these tough times brilliantly.
Over the course of four years our students are taught by highly qualified and sound professional on how to deeply and critically observe the social, political, societal and historic eras and come up with brilliant ideas to be highlighted through their thesis. Thesis topic selection range is extensive which presents an overall background of the Department of Art and Design (DoAD) teaching philosophy. DoAD is doing the best in providing the quality art and is giving them a clear direction in terms of design thinking which has led to motivating the students to focus upon design and presentation skills.
Bachelors in Design thesis is the conclusion of four years of study which focuses on extensive research and practice in the fields of Visual Arts and Design. This year students are presenting their thesis projects ranging from visual communication design, illustrations, game design, graphic novel, and animation projects.
The purpose of the design thesis is to help students deepen their understanding of various issues of society and to further engage with communities and produce relevant design solutions. Our graduates are creative individuals who tell our stories and express the truths of our society; they are ready to face the new challenges of a rapidly changing and diverse world and to contribute actively to solving them.
I congratulate the graduates of 2021 and wish them best of luck for their future endeavours and confident that they will contribute in the society by contemporary ways and optimistic approach.
