Academic Head

" Meaningful design education is built at the intersection of creativity, relevance, and real-world practice."

The academic vision at Yeldo Mar Baselios College is shaped by a commitment to excellence, innovation, and industry relevance. At the heart of this vision is a seasoned design educator whose journey is deeply rooted in the National Institute of Fashion Technology (NIFT)—bringing the rigor and standards of one of India’s most prestigious design institutions into the college’s academic ecosystem.

At Yeldo, this expertise translates into a learning environment where design education is both intellectually enriching and professionally aligned. As an alumnus of NIFT in Fashion Design and a former faculty member, he brings a refined pedagogical approach that balances conceptual depth with hands-on application—ensuring students are prepared to meet real-world creative challenges.

We believe that academic excellence extends far beyond the classroom—it is woven into every facet of the learning experience. From thoughtfully designed curricula to immersive studio practice, the institution fosters innovation, critical thinking, and real-world application, ensuring that students graduate with both creative confidence and professional competence.
