Bachelor of Architecture

Architecture is primarily concerned with the design of buildings. Students of architecture address the complex problems of designing- to house human activity, issues of climate and energy, technology and structure, combining the needs of internal and external environment.

Architecture education is a methodological training in analysis, understanding and problem-solving. It qualifies graduates to pursue a career in architecture along with other areas of the construction and design. The education in the School of Planning and Architecture is grounded in effective and interactive instruction provided by dedicated and qualified faculty members whose educational background, practical experience and diverse scholarly interests ensure comprehensive preoperational for practicing "real life architecture". The Department of Architecture has highly qualified and experienced faculty specializing in :

• Architecture
• Housing
• Urban & Regional Planning,
• Landing Architecture,
• Environmental Design,
• Urban Design,
• Conservation, etc.

The course broadens the intellectual and social lives of students beyond the boundaries of architecture and the build environment. The department has one of the best ratings for teaching and research in architecture. Its small size, friendly atmosphere and well-resourced library make it an enjoyable place for learning.

Course Structure:

The School offers B.Architecture (full time) 5-years, Degree programme in architecture. The curriculum is designed on the idea of learning through doing. Throughout the course, students work on design project, usually related to practical situations on live sites. As far as possible the academic input to the course is related to the programmes being carried out in the design studio. Student's progress is monitored through a combination of continuous assessment in design studios, written examinations, group discussions reviews, and juries for each field of study.

B. Tech Planning

Planning has its roots in engineering, law, architecture, public health and the social sciences. Planners today combine design, analytical and communication skills to help communities manage change. It presents numerous opportunities as well as challenges that come with rapid growth of cities. In particular, technological advances in communications and computers are changing the shape and form of cities, and how planning for the future will take place.

Planners work in communities and contribute solutions to our pressing social, economic and environmental problems. They are in fact one of the key contributors to making urban and rural life workable, livable and prosperous. Planners work with communities to provide research, analysis and recommendations in urban/regional environmental. Experts in public participation processes and conflict resolution, planners help develop solutions that are practical and effective.

Planners link knowledge and action in ways that improve public and private development decisions, which effect people, places and environment. To do this, planners must have knowledge and experience in a wide range of topics.

The aim is to impart knowledge, skills and attitude needed to pursue a career in urban planning, research, policy-making and management. It is essentially multi-disciplinary in nature- the subjects related to Urban and Regional planning include Urban Economics, Sociology Legislation, Development Theories, Politics, Transportation, Services, Housing, Landscape, etc.

Course Structure:

The Curriculum is a full -time four years course and is divided into eight semesters. In the first seven semesters, the students have to devote full time to the study of different subjects while 8th semester consists of practical training along with a project work.

The curriculum structured to include major thrust areas like:
