I am satisfied with the college and faculty but dissatisfied with the placements.

Placements: I am a 3rd-year student and there are 70 students left in the class; the rest, 15, left college. About placements, there are no placements for bachelor students but they can get jobs easily because the college has its reputation all over India. 100% of students got internships in places all over India in tier-1 cities with great in-hand stipends. We offered to plan, design, site analyse, construct, and manage in the firms and learn about the market.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure is one of the best in India, with all the facilities like 3D printing machines, high-graphic computer systems, MDF sheet cutting machines, photography labs, survey lab all the necessary things available. The Wi-Fi is all around the college and the hostel is very facilitated with a mess in it. The food we offered is average but with the amount we paid for it, it is good for that. About sports, we have a ground in which we can play box cricket and TT in hall and we have a separate badminton court.

Faculty: Teachers are very good in terms of delivering the knowledge to students and helping us in designing our projects with structures as well. It makes students somehow ready for industry and students learn from internships as well. Semester exams are above average and 45% is the minimum criteria for passing.

Other: I choose the course because I have my family business related to it and I like to design buildings and structures. If this course students got more income in the starting phase, it will be more motivating for them, or if they got placement directly from college, it will be very helpful for the future. College has regular events for alumni, students and teachers with sports events as well.

Faculty of Architecture and Planning, AKTU, Lucknow.

Placements: I don't know about placements here, but as I heard, students get internships in their 4th year and they usually get placed where they did their internship, and a few of them opt for higher studies. Here, seniors usually do the work for others from the 3rd year by their own.

Infrastructure: The college campus is small, but the facilities are very well provided. The hostel is also pretty decent, and you can live here easily. The food is not too good and not too bad. Labs and classrooms are very good, fully equipped with all the necessary items. The library is one of India's best in terms of architecture.

Faculty: The faculty here is very well-experienced, and most of the faculty members have done their higher studies from IITs and CCA. The difficulty of the exams here is moderate, but you have to practice very well. The curriculum here is very hectic but very useful if you sincerely do the work.

Go and build your career with AKTU.

Placements: In the college, almost all the students get placed or receive offers for master's programs in IIT, NIT, and SPA.

Infrastructure: The Wi-Fi is of good speed, and the labs are well-equipped. Classrooms are conducive to learning and have AC. The library is stocked with books, e-books, and digital resources. The campus features lush greenery, a canteen, hostel facilities, and a mess. Medical facilities are good, and sports are promoted.

Faculty: The faculty members are outstanding and cooperative. The curriculum is completely aligned with market demand. Exams are quite hard but manageable. Three exams are conducted in a semester: two are sessional exams, and the third is the final semester exam. A minimum of 45% is required to pass.

Faculty: Good faculty, good curriculum, and a good exam for my course. All teachers are qualified and helpful. The quality of teachers of teaching is very high. Medium-type semester exams are conducted at my college. The pass percentage is approximately 40% in my college.

Highly recommended college of architecture in Uttar Pradesh.

Placements: Around 10 to 12 students were placed. The highest and the lowest average pack was 5pla to 12 LPA respectively. Top recruiting companies were tata consultancy. 60 percent of students got internship from my course. Top roles offered were design head executive.

Infrastructure: Infrastructure and land area is top one. Wi-Fi, labs library are provided. Hostel facility is top notched were food and living quality is good. Sports and other annual functions are held every 1.5 years. Food quality in food mess and canteen in good.

Faculty: Teachers are highly qualified. Every faculty is atleast have done Masters. Yes, course study is relevant and highly demanded in today's world's. This college makes us industry ready in this competivite world. There are total 10 semesters in 5 years course and 3 exams per semester.

Other: I chose B.Arch as a course as its an amalgamation of both technical as well as creative knowledge. This field is highly demanded in today worlds. The things I want to improve in this course would be adaptation to more technology based designing rather than handwork.

Just timepass, not a good college for architecture.

Placements: 0 placements till now. As it is based on skills you have to find job yourself. You can ask faculty for help though. No help from management of the college. Most you will own a office after getting degree so doesn't matter much, overall no placements.

Infrastructure: Building not in good condition and according to hostelers, mess food is just disgusting. Walls have weathered plaster A/c only available in few classrooms, tables are in okay condition. No Wi-Fi in hostel or the building and not much facilities available.

Faculty: Faculty is helpful and knowledgeable, bit lazy though, you've to ask everything. Internal exams are fine. Course is covered thoroughly. Not something special, and you cannot become industry ready here. If you just want degree its for you but for skills. Big NO.
