Which college is better to pursue B.Arch among LPU and Amity University?

Hi, Selecting an institute is one of the difficult tasks. Both the universities are doing good but I would recommend LPU over Amity University because the architecture department is approved by COA and serves to create professionals who have manual and computerized planning and designing skills on leading design software. The programmes are structured in five groups taking care of every dimension of the growing and ever-changing design industry viz. Core Courses, Supporting Courses, Skill Development Courses, Management Courses, Elective Courses. The academics focus on developing students' creative skills by encouraging experimentation with new materials and processes with great concern for material conservation. Many companies visit LPU for the recruitment like DLF, India, Larsen and Toubro, Reliance Infrastructure, Design Forum, Arcop India, Atkins, Ansals API, Sateliers, Omaxe, Quark City, Sahara City Homes, Hettich India, Kaff Kitchen Solutions, Delhi Metro Rail Corporation, Indian Army, Military Engineering Services, Architectural Design Houses [National and International] and many more. So, definitely, you should go for LPU. Thanks.

Architecture is the one subject that lets you challenge yourself to do better every time. It develops new perspectives and dimensions. Architecture is both the process and the product of planning, designing, and constructing buildings or any other structures. Architectural works, in the material form of buildings, are often perceived as cultural symbols and as works of art. For taking admission there are a few entrance exams like NATA that need to be taken. NATA is compulsory for Architecture Studies. B.Arch at LPU is a good choice based on my own personal experience. The faculty is very experienced and highly educated. In the programme, innovative teaching practices are adopted. One such practice is called Experiential learning week which is organized every semester in which students are taken to nearby historic and construction sites and are given live case studies to do. In design studios, the professors encourage students to take challenging and practical design problems. There is a rich culture of internships for final year students who go for very challenging and top placements nationally as well as internationally through department. The department is actively working to arrange internships by making a cluster of architectural and consultant firms with them. Most importantly they are recognised by the Council of Architecture (COA). Their curriculum comprises of Live Projects, Study tour to overseas projects, they follow collaborative learning with Industries. Tie ups with industry Content delivery by industry experts Projects in collaboration with industry Internships to engage deeply in hands on real-life situations Placements of the department also shows promising results. Architect Hafeez Contractor (Mumbai), IDDC (Instrument Design Development Centre) in IIT (Delhi), VastuNidhi Architects (New Delhi), Studio KIA (Gurgaon), Hemant Vora & Associates (Mumbai), Lvista, (Mumbai), Form Space and Design Architects (Bangalore), Sankraman Design Studio (Mumbai), K2 Concepts (Gurgaon), Sleek (Chandigarh), Al RakhaGroup, Green Vision Architects, AKTC-Aga Khan Trust for Culture (Afghanistan), Capital region Development Authority (Kabul), Total Environment Builders, Wagma Designs, Cabinet secretariat, GOI, Benzara Commerce India etc. Are few companies where our students are well placed.
