Hi, Finalizing an institute in the era of a competitive world is very difficult nowadays when new institutes claim that they are doing good. The Alumni of this B.Arch of LPU highly recommends the programmes offered under Architecture because of the following: #The Architecture Programmes are approved by the Council of Architecture (COA), a statutory body of the Government of India, to regulate the architectural education and practice of the profession as required. #There is a different school for B.Arch I. e. School of Architecture provides differential programme outcomes from basic to advanced one I. e the School inculcates practical implication and goes beyond the conceptual understanding. #The programme is 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 curriculum is benchmarked against the most renowned institutions of the world and is further strengthened through live design projects which help thorough assimilation of theoretical concepts. #The focus is on application-oriented teaching with live architecture design projects, extensive models, and fieldwork. #LPU believes in providing real-life exposure instead of just book knowledge. 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 that give a cutting edge to the university students. #The Faculty deputed to teach the students is very supportive and takes initiatives to involve the students in projects for maximum exposure. #The career prospects of this course if studied from LPU will open your doors to government. Architect's offices of different states and universities, In government. Engineering offices like P. W. D. , Public Health, Irrigation, Town Planning Corporation offices, Teaching jobs, etc. Based on the above information shared, I can say that LPU has an edge in curriculum, pathways, specializations, and placements. Thanks.

SPA is better than LPU because your course is not as famous as B.Tech or other technical streams and it is always better to get into well-established institutes SPA, who are purely focused on your domain. Moreover, SPA has a great alumni and moreover better scope for your branch than LPU. Go for it.
