Secondment Programme inviting Visiting Fellows to NIFT
NIFT
has evolved as a centre of Excellence imparting
Multidisciplinary and pragmatic education to its students.
In order to keep pace with the dynamic environment which is
rapidly changing, the present milieu demands that the
international fashion industry trends need to be adopted and
assimilated within the Indian environment.
Thus,
there is a requirement of introduction of overseas
international Visiting Fellows, who can provide the
necessary international flavour and impetus to the
initiative taken by NIFT. It is also important to offer
appointments to overseas Visiting Fellows so that their
involvement and commitment with NIFT is ensured.
With
the academic term starting January 2007,
18 Visiting Fellows have been invited to NIFT Campus
providing direction to the above mentioned initiative.
