" Knowledgeable tutors who help if you ask for it. Good library. Campus is in need of a renovation. I would say to people who are beginning student life in this college to work hard on your briefs from the get go and experiment!!!, and stick to your own ideas from day one as you are your own designer/ artist - and nobody should shape you into something different.

" The campus is overall quite small in size and there aren't as many amenities as you would find in other universities. That being said, it's quite home-y and is quite distinct as it used to be an old distillery. The atmosphere is quite nice as well, and everyone gets along quite well. We had very interesting on campus events. "

" This is a good college for students who are motivated to explore their field of study with the help of instructors. I found the mandatory lectures/essays for the Visual Culture taxing at the time but in retrospect they helped me to gain a more rounded education in my field of study(industrial design). "

" Time management of classes is bad. The curriculum lacks teaching of essential product designer skills like sketching or 3D modeling. Facility like workshop is lacking and not always available as well. Though the staffs and students are friendly. "
