Present Scenario of Architecture Education In India

Abstract

This paper takes an overview of the present scenario of Architecture Education in INDIA. Sidney Hook defines education as “assimilation of the culture of any society, and its transmission from one generation to another, it perpetuates and gives continuity to society.” The world has shown a remarkable change in the last few decades. Architectural education, too, is no exception to it. New inventions have changed the course of history, so also of style and structure of the architectural education programme. The programme, over the years, has become more matured and comprehensive, but it could not keep pace with the fast growth in the professional practice. In India, The standards of Architectural Education being imparted in institutions (constituent colleges/departments of universities, deemed universities, affiliated colleges/schools, IITs, NITs and autonomous institutions) is governed by Council of Architecture-COA (Minimum Standards of Architectural Education) Regulations, 1983, which set forth the requirement of eligibility for admission, course duration, standards of staff & accommodation, course content, examination etc. All schools in India with little variation follow the pattern suggested by COA. Though freedom of choosing 25% of the study periods (to follow thrust area of choice) has been given by COA. There are variety of associative programs running across the country although not fulfilling the demand.
