UN's Sustainable Development Goals
The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are the UN’s blueprint for a more sustainable future for all.
Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) are important actors in achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and the 2030 Agenda set by the United Nations General Assembly in 2015. As agents of knowledge, HEIs maintain a critical role in contributing to a socially fair, economically viable, and environmentally protected world.
How NICC can help achieve SDGs Goals
NEP 2023 Compliant
A pivotal concept in The National Education Policy for Higher Education is Interdisciplinary, Cross-Platform learning, and this is precisely the strongest feature of the NICC curriculum and course structure. NICC is a pioneer in this pedagogic system and is the first Indian Design Institution to embrace this policy which it has implemented in a unique highly industry-integrated manner for almost two decades.
STEAM Education
The STEM model of education is a root pedagogic system in schools worldwide, but current studies have shown that it is inadequate in providing the right framework for truly creative professionals - particularly in the various fields of Design which are central to innovative evolution in Industry. There is, therefore, an intense global movement to include Arts & Design ('A'in STEAM ) as part of Integrated Curriculum systems. NICC is the first Indian Institution to have implemented this concept in its continuously evolving, industry-connected development of pedagogy for almost 2 decades. The essence of the STEAM model is expressed well by Robin Mathew: "Design is where Science & Art break even."
"My son Samyamoy completed his bachelor degree at NICC, Bangalore. It's a marvelous institute developed by their faculties, who groom a boy or a girl in very effective manner to build his or her career in visual communication. Due to such orientation my son got a big opportunity for Master in SRFTI, Kolkata. Praying for amazing future of NICC."
