M.Arch

Specifically if you are talking about placement after doing B.Arch course , then IIT Kharagpur has no match. people landing up with jobs in MNCs and e-commerce with pacakge as much as 27lakhs !!. Yes you heard me right. IIT KGP often pulls off 100% placement in B.Arch course with companies varying from flipkart/Microsoft to core companies like Total environment and space matrix .
There is a big misconception in India that Architects cannot get placed. But actually it is not the case. The placement stats in IIT roorkee is also impressive. Daar ,VConstruction came there for placements.
SPA Delhi/NITs have also organised placement , though not so great but people do get jobs in good companies frm campus.
But yes it is equally true that Architecture is not a course like B.tech where you study specifically for placements. It's a professional course like Law/medicine, where very few lucky ones gets placed . Once you pass out, you can opt for off campus placement in Architecture firms. If you have a good skills, then you will get a job.

Doing M.Arch in Architecture would be a good decision after B.Tech Civil. But there are certain points that you must think before making a final decision.
1. There are lesser job opportunities in architecture but it depends on the college that you are getting admission into. If placement records are sound then nothing to worry about. You may go ahead.
2. Getting job at the start is tough due to less opportunities.
3. Architectural job involves planning and designing and if you good at both of these then only step into this field otherwise you would regret. Also you need to be creative and imaginative.
However, if you get a job initially then you won't face any problem. Also, the packages are very high right from the starting of the career and as you gain experience your package will keep on increasing rapidly.
