To apply for MArch at Faculty of Architecture AKTU students must meet the eligibility requirement of having a UG degree of the appropriate branch relevant to the degree or BArch in a related specialisation. While admissions depends on merit or qualifying exam score which in the case of MArch is UG degree marks.

Whether an M.Arch is worth it or not totally depends on you. If you want to go into the Teaching field and become a Lecturer, then M Arch is definitely beneficial for you. I will suggest that you even go for a Ph.D but you want to join a firm, then I don't think it's worth it as B.Arch has already provided you with the skills that you need to work.

Hope this helps!
