    Civil engineering and architecture are different fields that cannot be compared as such.
    Architecture is more of creativity and civil is the application part of that creativity, so I think which one is better depends on your interest and caliber and should be chosen accordingly.
    Though in terms of scope in government sector I would prefer Civil engineering over architecture in the current scenario.

    I agree with Mr. Pankaj that architecture involves more creativity than civil engineering but I would like to disagree in the point that civil is application of that creativity.
    Actually, architecture involves the layouting and designing of a building, while civil engineering deals with the forces, stresses and stability in the structure. Civil engineering involves designing the supports, the angles the type of beams that can take a particular stress value.

    Both civil and architecture are different things but the common thing in civil and architecture is the part of creativity which you need in both the fields. In architecture, you need more creativity then civil. But for today concern or if you were thinking about government jobs, I think civil branch is a better option. Civil branch can provide you with a platform to go with PSU sectors or with government jobs. So, it also depends on your calibre that whether you want to choose civil engineering or architecture, it's your choice.
