UCEED Coaching in Delhi 2025-2026

Students and aspirants from all over India appear for the UCEED Entrance exams 2021 in high hopes to pursue a designing career. The national level entrance exams are held every year to shortlist the best design candidates and give them opportunity to pursue their dream career. The past decade has seen a remarkable rise in the demand for designers in different field.

Statistics reveal that the demand for designers in India far exceeds the supply. Every year, 1,50,00,000 graduate as engineers but the actual demand for engineers is much less. On the contrary, only 15000 qualified designers are seen each year in India while the demand is much more. It comes as no surprise that in 2015, during the placement drive, 72lakhs pay offer was given to an NID student. In the same placement drive, 8 students were given packages of 48lakhs.

The statistics reveal the rise in demand for designers. Technological designers have many different career options to choose from. A good designer maybe hired by any of the following:

  • Personal Product Companies like Bombay Dyeing, Titan and Adidas
  • Tech-driven and IT Companies like Infosys, Facebook and Ola
  • Advertising Agencies like JWT India, Ogilvy and Lowe Lintas
  • Automotive Companies like Mahindra & Mahindra, Tata and Maruti
  • Media Houses like TV 18, Viacom and ZEE

The first milestone that every designer must clear is the UCEED Entrance Exams that is held annually in 24 nationwide centres. The entrance exams are meant to gauge the design aptitude of candidates. The competition is tough and without proper guidance and training, a candidate will find it hard to clear such exams. SILICA aspires to help such candidates attain their dream career.
