Somaiya School of Design | Block Plan

Bachelor of Design Academics

Block Plan

Our curriculum is divided into blocks of approximately 2 months each. Every Block will have the following elements:

  • 01 Objective
  • 02 Theme (United Nations SDG)
  • 03 Design Challenge by Our Partners
  • 04 Courses
  • 05 Innovative Evaluation methods
  • 06 Strategic Partnerships

The real world theme for every block is inspired from UN Sustainable Development goals (SDG). The idea is to keep contact with the real world intact. Students would also be working on Design Challenges based on the theme implementing the learnings of their courses in a given block.

Themes are selected to keep the pressing problems of our world as a priority and also to have alignment with designers working across borders. Partners, experts, field visits, live projects etc identified for every block will facilitate exploring the local context of the SDG theme.
