BMS College of Engineering is an autonomous engineering college in Basavangudi, Bangalore. BMS College of Engineering established the Department of Architecture in the year 1980.
The Department of Architecture of BMS offers programs in B.Arch, M.Arch (Habitat Design) and doctoral programme under VTU, Belgaum.
The annual intake for B.Arch is 120. It has good infrastructure and well-experienced faculty members.
MIT ADT (Arts, Design and Technology) is located in Pune. It offers a B.Arch programme of 5-year duration which is approved by the COA (Council of architecture). This is also a good choice for architecture when compared to most of the colleges for architecture in India. This college offers good education with great infrastructure and faculty members.
Both of these offer good education and opportunities to the students of architecture.
But when comparing both of these, I prefer BMS College of Engineering. They are almost equal to each other, but considering all aspects and including student reviews, my choice is BMS College of Engineering.

Hi,
The answer is a big no. It's not worth at all to pursue Master's degree in jewellery designing from distance learning in India and it is not only about India, you just can't go for a distance learning jewellery designing course. These are the reasons why I am saying no:
1. It is a practical course, so how will you manage to learn through distance when it's meant to be a regular course.
2. None of the good and reputed colleges of India offer a distance jewellery designing Master's degree.
3. Even if some colleges offer a distance programme then jewellery designing is a field where you need to practice on regular bases. So, it doesn't matter whether you are doing it from India or abroad.
4. Distance learning wouldn't help you to get a good job as a jewellery designer.
So, I will suggest you to go for a regular programme from colleges like NIFT (National Institute of Fashion Technology ) and Pearl Academy.

You may be thinking that you would make a good critic. Perhaps you would; however, willingness to work hard, along with a bit of luck, are also necessary. In fact, enjoying your subject area is one of several necessary skills a critic must possess.
Critics attempt to capture the experience and relate that experience to readers, viewers or listeners. Some of the qualities required by critics are:
Broad subject Knowledge
Critics must also have a working knowledge minute details so that they can intelligently discuss the minute details.
Writing or Presentation Skills
They must communicate their experiences to their audiences. Although no formal education or degrees are required to become a critic, some aspiring critics pursue degrees in journalism or broadcasting to obtain the skills they need. Critics for magazines and newspapers must be able to communicate their knowledge and appreciation through the written word. On the other hand, critics for radio and television must be able to convey their experiences through their spoken words.
Discretion and Objectivity
Although many critics have wide name recognition, they almost never show their faces when they write or broadcast reviews. This is to minimize the possibility that people may give her special treatment. critics must also maintain objectivity,

The best training for copy-editing is OJT and mentoring. If possible, you should try to get work at a publishing house. For an entry level position, they usually give you some sort of test to see what aptitude you might have for the work, and then give you training.
However, increasingly the opportunities in this field are freelance, and not full-time permanent positions at publishing houses. Indeed, unless you are in a publishing center such as any or Boston, full-time positions may be almost impossible to get. This creates a chicken and egg problem: One cannot get work without having had experience, but one cannot get experience without having had work.
If you are in this bind, then any kind of certification or training you can get will be helpful. One also cannot stress enough the need to start connecting with authors, editors, and people in the publishing industry, as the vast majority of work in this field is unadvertised.
I also agree with Stephanie Fysh's suggestion about not working for free. While it might be worth the trouble to do one or two small projects at a low price for a friend or relative just to get something to put on your resume, there is a whole underclass of writers and editors who are selling themselves short by offering their services for free or at very low rates all the time. They may think that they are building a career that way, but they are only hurting themselves.
In publishing, a serious client will pay a good wage for your labor. One sees on Internet message boards people complaining about not getting paid for a job or being mistreated by a client, and it is nearly all over jobs paying less than $40. However, people who make a serious career from this work generally get paid much more than this unless it is for a very small job, and they generally get paid on time, because they are working for people who are equally as serious about publishing as they are.
