FDDI preparing its students to pursue a career in footwear design and development in order to become world number 1 in footwear providers



India has always been very rich in sculptures and artisans. In olden times, there were many skilful workers who use to make leather shoes and footwear by using simple equipment. They did not possess any state of the art machinery and did not have any formal education in this field. There are still many villages where men often known as cobblers are engaged in making footwear and are earning their livelihood. However times have changed and there is a greater demand of footwear both in India as well as abroad.

Keeping in mind the increasing demand for leather good the ministry of commerce has envisages a great potential in the footwear industry. It has been found out that currently China is the world leader in producing footwear and is leading in export of leather goods. India has realised a potential in the field of leather goods and want to supersede China as far as exports of leather goods and footwear is concerned. Therefore it has been decided that FDDI is going to open yet another 5 campuses in the current years so that India has no dearth of skilled and dedicated youths who can take up this challenge.


FDDI offer both undergraduate as well as post graduate courses in footwear design and development. The undergraduate course is for a duration of 3 years and provides a bachelor degree whereas post graduate course is for a duration of 2 years and provides a master degree which is recognised in both India as well as abroad. In order to get admission in any of the courses it is mandatory to clear the entrance exam which is going to be held in 7th June -9th June 2017.
