SUMMARY:DES University Interaction Session by Vineet Raj Kapoor
DESCRIPTION:Chandigarh Design School Founder Vineet Raj Kapoor\, did a special interactive session for the students of Animation\, Media and UIUX for a select group of students at DES University\, Pune. The workshop was attended by more than 80 students at LH-513\, Media School\, DES University Campus. The prestigious Deccan Education Society\, runs more than 400 colleges across Maharashtra including the Fergusson College at Pune.\nDES Pune University Session by Vineet Raj Kapoor\nVineet Raj Kapoor (Indian IDT Lead Expert Worldskills\, and Founder SXILL and Chandigarh Design School) shared “Training students from DES University was a wonderful opportunity. We trained them in various approaches to success in Animation and UI UX Careers. Being a practitioner and trainer of UX Design and Design Thinking since 2014\, I was aware of the huge gap between theory and practice that exists in India even in the top institutes. So we focused on problem finding right from the start\, and also about developing personas\, and taking it from there to concept design\, while passing through various phases like user journey mapping and other steps.” He quipped\, “Don’t worry all this would be part of my upcoming book – SOLVXD: Think in Steps – that would be coming out soon. \nVenu\, a 2nd Year student of Bachelors in Animation\, stated that\, “I lacked confidence in my abilities\, but after Vineet Sir’s talk\, I feel motivated enough to take on any challenge. I have been part of GO48 International Competitions backed by SXILL and Chandigarh Design School and desire to win a medal this year.” \nAnkit Jain\, Co-rodinator Director at DES University\, said\, “The talk was really good\, as usual I must say since I had also had the pleasure of hosting him earlier. Vineet Sir is a leading educationist in the Design and Animation Sector. There’s always a lot to learn from him. He is very well connected with all top studios of India. We also have him in our Board of Studies so that our program remains relevant for the studios across the country.” \nNeelu Kapoor (Indiaskills Graphic Design Technology Jury) and Founder SXILL mentioned\, “This was the first time Chandigarh Design School tendered a talk at DES University\, and we are quite excited by the quality of the Students at DES University. Before this we had tendered Faculty Development Program at Chitkara\, Pune University\, Thapar University as well as student sessions for DY Patil University\, Panjab University\, Thapar University\, BITS Pilani and others.”

SUMMARY:Pune University Design Thinking FDP conducted by CDS Founder Chandigarh Design School Founder
DESCRIPTION:Chandigarh Design School Founder Vineet Raj Kapoor trained a select group of Pune University Faculty in Design Thinking. He took the important sessions on Design Thinking for “Impact of Storytelling” and “Case Studies – Innovation and Entrepreneurship”. The FDP was attended by 45 Faculty across Pune University. The FDP was held at ASSIM Engineering College\, Pune.\n  \nDesign Thinking FDP at Pune University by Vineet Raj Kapoor\nVineet Raj Kapoor (IDT Lead Expert Worldskills representing India\, and Founder SXILL and Chandigarh Design School) shared “Training Faculty from Pune University was a wonderful opportunity. The Faculty Development Program happened on 6 December 2024. We took care to equip them with enough examples and cases of Storytelling as well as for Innovation and Entrepreneurship\, in a manner that they are able to retain the information and put it in perspective since Design Thinking is a complex subject and is largely misrepresented. We trained them in various approaches to Design Thinking\, and especially sensitized and trained them in the toughest field of empathetic thinking\, since that is what most UX Designers in India lack. Being a practitioner and trainer of UX Design and Design Thinking since 2014\, I feel responsible for the state of UIUX Design in India. Despite our best efforts\, a large swathe of Industry as well as trainers are unaware of the possibilities of UX Design and think about it as a burden. We are doing our best to rectify the situation by giving great manpower to the starved Software Industry in India.” He quipped\, “Don’t worry all this would be part of my upcoming book – SOLVXD: Think in Steps – that would be coming out soon. \nNeelu Kapoor (Indiaskills Graphic Design Technology Jury) and Founder SXILL mentioned\, “This was the third time Chandigarh Design School tendered a Faculty Development Program at Pune University. Earlier we have done programs for Thapar University\, Chitkara University\, GNDU\, Panjab University among others. We are also doing international Programs in Design Thinking with leading institutions abroad. We are aware that training a faculty is much more important as it can directly impact the lives of 1000s of students.”
