HOW TO CHOOSE THE ARCHITECTURE AND PLANNING

BEST COLLEGE OF

Architecture and planning are lucrative and growing fields that many students want to pursue for promising careers. Architects are responsible for turning imagination into reality in the form of attractive buildings and land. With urbanisation, the demand for architects is increasing day by day.

If you have good analytical skills and a passion for pursuing the architecture field, you must be looking into good architecture schools. Choosing a college for architecture can be a tiresome process.

FACTORS TO CONSIDER

It would help if you looked at many factors when choosing the best college for architecture and planning. These are mentioned below:

COLLEGE CURRICULUM

First, you should explore the college's curriculum and its courses. Different architecture colleges have different teaching methods and learning modules. Often, the procedures or modules need to match the student's interests. So, it would help if you considered a college that offers the subjects of interest in this field.

COLLEGE RANKING

Nowadays, different organisations rank colleges based on specific criteria that have been standardised. It is easy to find out the rankings of architecture colleges. You can go through these organisations' databases or the country's higher education department's website and find out where a particular college stands.

COLLEGE LOCATION

An essential factor to consider is the college's location or the city where the college is located.

The colleges located in towns with heritage importance can be a good source of learning. You may learn about different phases of architectural design, from ancient to new. So, this factor is also contributing to your choice.

COLLEGE FACILITIES

While choosing a college, you can see what facilities it offers its students. For example, a library with a good collection of architecture and planning books is necessary for you to grow in this field. You can do this by physically going there or visiting the college website and reviewing its entire infrastructure and facilities.

ACCREDITATIONS

Your choice may also depend on the accreditation a college holds. Different world organisations set the highest standards for architecture and planning education, like NAAB. You can find out which college has global or national architecture accreditations.

COLLEGE FEE STRUCTURE

This is a critical factor to include in your analysis.

Some colleges have a fee range of 1 to 2 lacs per semester, whereas others have a fee range of 2 to 6 lacs per semester. You should check the fee structure of all the shortlisted colleges and see if it comes under your financial constraints, as this may be a deciding factor.

COLLEGE PLACEMENTS AND SUPPORT

Finally, another essential factor to consider is the facilities of college placement or career development centres. You should know how much support it offers after graduating by providing different opportunities for internships and jobs; you may contact college alums for this purpose.
