National Institute of Design The National Institute of Design (NID), India is internationally acclaimed as one of the foremost multi-disciplinary institution of design education and research. It is autonomous institution under the aegis of the Ministry of Commerce and Industry, Government of India. NID has also been declared as ‘Institution of National Importance’ by the Act of Parliament, by the virtue of the National Institute of Design Act. The establishment of NID was a result of several forces, both global and local. The late 1950s saw a confluence of these forces, and this time would be a significant one for Indian culture and education. This was a time of reappraisal and reconstruction in a newly independent India. A young nation was confronted with the mammoth task of nation building, of balancing age old traditions with modern technology and ideas. Revolutionary experimentation in the arts, architecture and design were all taking place at the same time. There was a search for the Indian identity across all aspects of life. The mandate for NID is to offer world-class design education and to promote design awareness and application towards raising the quality of life by and through education to create design professionals of excellence to help meet India’s diverse design needs.
