PREFACE
Curriculum of a subject is said to be the throbbing pulse of a nation. By looking at
the curriculum one can judge the state of intellectual development and the state of
progress of the nation. The orld has turned into a global village! ne ideas and
information are pouring in like a stream. "t is# therefore# imperative to update our
curricula regularly by introducing the recent developments in the relevant fields of knoledge.
"n e$ercise of the poers conferred by sub%section &1' of section 3 of the (ederal
)upervision of Curricula Te$tbooks and *aintenance of )tandards of +ducation
,ct 1-/# the (ederal 0overnment vide notification no. 3/%+, &Cur.'# dated
ecember 4# 1-/# appointed niversity 0rants Commission as the competent
authority to look after the curriculum revision ork beyond class 5"" at bachelor
level and onards to all degrees# certificates and diplomas aarded by degree
colleges# universities and other institutions of higher education.
"n pursuance of the above decisions and directives# the 6igher +ducation
Commission &6+C' is continually performing curriculum revision in collaboration
ith universities. ,ccording to the decision of the special meeting of 7ice%
Chancellors8 Committee# curriculum of a subject must be revieed after every 3
years. (or the purpose# various committees are constituted at the national level
comprising senior teachers nominated by universities. Teachers from local degree

CURRICULUM FOR B. ARCHITECTURE
Goal and Objective
(ive%year B.,rch. egree course &professional under%graduate level' aims at
producing professionals ho ill assume major leadership role in shaping the built
environment and meet the challenges posed by the cotemporary development tofulfil the needs of the present day orld and the time to come.
The five%year degree course is a to%level programme# spread over ten semestersG
(ormative level &semesters 1%/' and Consolidation level &semesters %1='# each
level having specific objectives.
@bjective at the (ormative level &semesters 1%/' is to develop oral# ritten# visual#
and graphic presentation skills and technical knoledge necessary for perception
and e$pression of ideas in architectural design. The focus is to train students ith
an ability to design various functions along ith their orking details.
hereas# objective at the Consolidation level &semesters %1=' is to inculcate an in%
depth perception of architecture as an activity in time and space# and develop
ability to design functions ith an aareness of conte$tual issues involved ith
various facets of architecture.
SCHEME OF STUDIES
@bjective at first year &semesters 1%2' is to introduce basics of visual

Reco!!endation
"n deliberations during three%day sessions# a number of points came under
discussion. "t as highlighted that there is a strong need to strengthen institutions
imparting architectural education in the country.
1. 6igher +ducation Commission should provide funds for the continual
faculty development by arranging scholarships for short and long term
courses as ell as e$change of faculty beteen institutions ithin and
outside the country.
2. ;one of the institutions at present is e:uipped ith latest facilities and
teaching aid. "t is therefore felt very strongly that the facilities should be
upgraded. hile allocating funds to universities# 6+C should make sure
that ade:uate funds are diverted to the departments of architecture. To
start ith# a separate grant may immediately be allocated for the
improvement of facilities at architecture departments.
3. "t is also felt by the members that a separate course under the
nomenclature K,rchitectural )tudiesL or K+nvironmental )tudiesL should
be introduced at the higher secondary school level to increase the
aareness among the masses regarding the profession of architecture.
