Infrastructure and facilities are good.

Placements: There are usually no placements for Architecture. We have very limited placements, mostly they are focused on internships. All students did their internship all across India, and the educational tour is also organized by our college as a part of our course.

Infrastructure: College has library with some of the most interesting books. We have studio classrooms and a computer lab to practice with software. Canteen is small, and there is no mess inside the campus. Sports events and other competitions are conducted.

Faculty: There are many qualified and visiting faculty members who have done their master's in multiple and varied fields and from different universities. Course curriculum is relevant, and it makes students industry-ready. It gives an insight into real-world problem-solving.

Other: I chose Architecture because of my personal interest. The best thing about the course is the creative thinking aspect and the design process. Things like live workshops and participation in conferences would improve our course.

Recent developments pave a positive way.

Placements: In Architecture domain, we are supposed to hunt for firms and approach them by sending our portfolio for internship programs. Our department staff will guide us and help with what maximum they can do. Searching for firms and establishments is completely students initiative.

Infrastructure: Recently only college has developed infrastructure by providing waiting lounges in exception and other staff areas, fitted corridors with ample number of LED lights. Installing Wi-Fi modems in corridors space aids students needs. Installing emergency water horse pipes and fire extinguishers according to standards.

Faculty: Our other theory and technical subject faculty members help us a lot by aiding us to clear our arrears in those subjects (excluding practical subjects like design). Staff in thesis panel handled us like a professional also in student friendly way. If we are talented and skillful surely we will be guided correctly.

Other: Our department authorities, apart from academics encouraged us to take part in open completion, workshops, and symposiums.

Very Mass and Good Teachers.

Placements: We have 13 students in our course. The highest package is for B.Arch. The lowest is for B.Com. The best course in the college is B.Arch, and sports are also the best. We have 17 to 20 courses in the college. Placements are not in the college, but B.Arch students go out for their final year to a company and work there and submit the TCS.

Infrastructure: We have proper facilities in the hostel. We have Wi-Fi, labs, and a library. The hostel food and canteen food are good. We have 5 years of course. In the 1st semester, we have Math and English. In the B.Arch course, we will visit many places for better experience in building, texture, and design.

Faculty: All teachers are qualified and very knowledgeable. They are very helpful at any time. After each semester, we have a new teacher for each subject. Art will be there every year. Teachers stay until 9 pm if a student needs to study or work on a project.

Other: We have many events in sports. Every year we have 4 to 5 sports events in our college, and we also visit and play in tournaments in other colleges.

Good and supportive faculty members.

Placements: In our batch, around 90% of students got placed and some of them joined for higher studies. Faculty members and management were supportive for internship opportunities in final year. Mentors were guiding students to get a good placements as Architecture has no placements conducted in any colleges.

Infrastructure: Our college library was the best source for students and there was a separate library for Architecture department. Hostels were safe and neat, they had all the needs for architecture students like drafting tables, etc. Classrooms was big enough for students to do model and drafting. We had provided separate classrooms for group works for urban design.

Faculty: All staff were talented and everyone was professionally helpful. They guide students to score more marks in every subject. Semester exam were easy to handle due to the good professional staff and most of us were passed in all the subjects without any arrears.

Other: Architecture provides opportunities in various fields. Our college has conducted various events for festivals and in education wise too.

One of the best in academics but not great about the infrastructure and stuff.

Placements: In general, there is no placement in architecture. Very few times do companies come to college and hire people, and if they do, the package averages 40-50k per month for masters. For freshers who have completed the bachelor’s program, the salary ranges from 18-30k. All students get placed in internship programs, and there is no problem with it. Once you’re done with architecture, a lot of options are open for you, like interior design, graphic design, logo design, photography, and anything related to design.

Infrastructure: Measi has decent infrastructure, but there is no availability of Wi-Fi in classrooms. The library and labs are very resourceful and well-maintained, and the quality of the hostel and food is decent but not that great. It also shares the ground with a new college, which is used after getting permission from them.

Faculty: The teachers are really qualified and knowledgeable, and the quality of teaching is good as well, but the students should make sure they are progressive as well. The curriculum all over India is almost similar, which doesn’t make a student industry-ready. The syllabus we follow is not very updated, since it follows Anna University syllabus, which is COA affiliated. It’s not that difficult as well if we are regular with our studies. The pass percentage cannot be accurate, but it’s more than 95%.

Other: Anyone interested in designing and problem-solving can choose this course. A few subjects are not really updated to the current market demands. There is a yearly sports event, and regular guest talks happen. Regular architectural competitions and essay writing, poster-making competitions as well. Since the campus is located at the heart of Chennai, the connectivity is really good. Minority scholarships are available as well. Speaking about the campus, it’s not a big campus, which speaks for architecture itself.

Midas - Good faculties and a calm ambiance.

Placements: Placements are not provided; however, for internship purposes, students have to create their own portfolio in the 9th semester, showcasing their previous works. They can independently approach architectural offices across the country for internships.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure is good, and the maintenance of both college and hostel facilities is excellent, surpassing those of other college hostels. Security and other necessary facilities are well-managed. However, the quality of the food may be a concern as it is below average.

Faculty: Currently, there is a shortage of faculty members at our college. However, the present faculty members are highly knowledgeable and supportive of teaching and guidance. Theory exams are relatively easy to score well on. Viva exams are based on individual works and are reviewed by external examiners.

Other: The field of architecture is suited for students who appreciate art, creativity, practicality, and enjoyment. The course is easy to learn once you are immersed in it, and the satisfaction comes from the creations you bring to life. Our college hosts a biennial event, the only grand event in our college, and the campus crowd is minimal, allowing everyone to know students from every batch.
