 The
National Institute of Fashion Technology, popularly known
as NIFT, has one of its main centres here. Three important
courses are offered here - the top three in the NIFT general
syllabi. These are Fashion Technology, Garment Manufacturing
Technology and Knitwear Design.
In keeping with its superior standards, selection is based purely
on merit. According to the Registrar of the Institute, S. Devadoss,
NIFT, Chennai is the place to learn (for Tamil Nadu is an important
centre for textiles, garment manufacture and export in the country).
Besides superb infrastructure and a qualified faculty, NIFT
can boast of being one of the top fashion institutes in the country.
Students are encouraged to learn through workshops, seminars, projects
and industry interaction. One hundred per cent placement is guaranteed
for every NIFTian. Fashion Designing is the number one course,
if only because of the glamour attached to it, but the other two
