DDS 2001, conducted by IDC IIT Bombay at Nehru Centre, was a prominent event showcasing the design innovations and projects of students. DDS, or Design Degree Show, is an annual exhibition where graduating students present their final design projects across various disciplines, including Industrial Design, Communication Design, and Animation. The event not only displayed the students' creative outcomes but also provided a platform for interaction with industry professionals, academics, and fellow designers. It served as a bridge between the students and potential employers, offering networking opportunities. Each exhibit at DDS 2001 highlighted a unique approach to solving real-world problems through design, focussing on user-centric solutions and technological innovations.
