Both are different fields. Before deciding, you need to know where your interest lies because without the interest both will be difficult to pursue. You better read architecture and journalism journals and literature and SEE which interest you more. LPU School of Architecture and Design is among best colleges and ranked among top ten promising architecture institutes of India by Higher education review. In an era of smart cities, sustainable buildings and contemporary interiors, we train our students to become lateral thinkers by focusing on critical design approach.

The architecture programme of lpu is approved by the agency of COA. Lpu provides the best academic exposure to it's students. The world class infra-structure is congenial for the study of architecture. Many workshops and seminars are conducted by industry experts as LPU believes in experiential learning. Students are exposed to real site situations through in house and external visits for visual orientation. Emphasis is given on the Entrepreneurship projects/Consultancy projects which give cutting edge to the students of the University. Talking about the placements companies like Al Rakha Group, Green Vision Architects, AKTC-Aga Khan Trust for Culture (Afghanistan), Capital region Development Authority (Kabul), Total Environment Builders, Wagma Designs etc. Visit here for recruitment purpose. LPU students shared how the conference benefited them by expanding their knowledge about design and creative arts and how words of renowned artists and designers widened their perspective on different forms of art. LPU gives a good platform to its students and wide exposure to show case their talent especially when world famous dignitaries come and student interview the. They gain many tie ups this way and enter the market.
