Student review [#99717] for Industrial Design
at Design Institute of Caracas - IDC

I’ve been a student at the IDC for a little over a year now, and I can say the teachers really know their stuff. They’re professionals in their design areas, and you can tell they’re passionate. But there’s definitely a gap between what students are expected to do and the skills most of us actually have when we first arrive. If you’re just starting in the world of design, the first months can feel pretty overwhelming while you try to adapt to the institute’s pace.
It’s also a pretty expensive career. Besides tuition, you’ll end up spending a lot on materials. But if you can handle those costs, you’ll come out with skills that go way beyond the basics.
During the first years you go through the basic cycle, where you try classes from all the specializations before choosing your path. This stage is kind of the “filter” that shows whether this high‑intensity teaching style works for you or not. A lot of people fail or drop out during this time, and honestly, there’s no shame in that. If it happens, it just means you now know what areas you need to work on to grow stronger in your field.
