    Architecture college for admission should be chosen on basis of various parameters, such as Infrastructure, well qualified and experienced faculty, industry connect, practical & project exposure, affordability etc. I think, for pursuing B.Arch course near Chandigarh - Indo Global College of Architecture is the best option for admission seekers.

    Hello,
    There are a lot of websites which say the best architecture colleges in India are X, Y and Z, but according to my experience it's better not to go with those.

It is not just the number of years of college's existence that makes the difference, its the present teaching-learning and the ecosystem for teaching-learning that should make the college stand apart, and even new colleges with new visions are sometimes far better.

    One cannot match IITs and NITs with other colleges. Clearance of NATA will make you feel better. Besides, there are colleges at state level, both state owned and private. The career opportunities for these graduates are high at present. These graduates can work as independent professionals or can take up jobs in government or private sectors. Teaching in this field is also another option for the pleasant career. Anyone who had successfully completed B.Arch can register with COA. This can be done through agencies like CPWD. UPSC organizes examinations for these registered candidates to recruit them in various departments. The architect
