Can you say design as a course would work only when you have a classroom, industry integration and a good job?

I would say more than that the curriculum becomes very important. One of the things that has changed over the years, there was a time when you could just study history or do physics or be an accountant, you could still do that but today's problems and today's opportunities go across all sides so you have to understand history and be able to understand accounts and be able to understand sociology. So the design curriculum has to also be flexible, open, able to bring in projects from outside and I think that is also very important so you need to have opportunity to learn, to apply in classroom, in the industry, in a global context and also have amazing mentors who can guide you through the process. So mentors are also important.
