Usually, only candidates with a B.Arch degree are eligible because the Bachelors courses in Architecture builds on architectural foundations. However, some universities offer bridge programs or specialised design courses for students from related fields like civil engineering or interior design but this is limited and depends on the institute's rules.

Yes, you can do M.Arch after B.Tech in Civil, but only a few colleges allow it. Most require a B.Arch degree. If you're really interested, look for M.Arch (Environmental Planning or Urban Design) where civil grads are sometimes accepted.
