School of Architecture

IEC UNIVERSITYIEC University, established under THE IEC (INDIA

EDUCATION CENTRE) UNIVERSITY (ESTBLISHMENT AND

REGULATION) ACT, 2012 is a venture of already well-

established IEC Group of Institutions spread over 100

acres of land in Northern India. We are based in Baddi,

an industrial town in Himachal Pradesh, located around

32 Kms from Chandigarh. Our 14.5 acres of sprawling

campus situated against the backdrop of beautiful

Shivalik Mountains offers safe and attractive environment

to study with the best quality resources and facilities. Our

University aims to deliver multi-disciplinary world class

education through effective and efficient processes so as

to make it accessible to all sections of society. Ours is a

vibrant multicultural, multiethnic campus promoting a

culturally pluralistic environment.

Architecture is all about the art, science and business of designing

buildings or other physical structures. Architects create homes, office

towers, schools, hotels and other structures. They have a flair for design,

keen business sense, strong engineering skills and an understanding of

the law. They may practise alone or be part of a small, medium or large

firm. Some Architects are self-employed. Others may be on salary, as

employees of government, real estate developers or large corporations.

Architects provide services to the people who they address as “clients”.

A client may be a company, a family, a housing authority, a government

department or a building contractor. What do Architects do?

Architects design, draw, calculate and manage. Before constructing a

building, architects draw a plan of the building. Sometimes they make

a cardboard or plastic model of the building. They design on Computer

aided software also. Architects prepare accurate construction and office

budgets. They also have to understand structural analysis, heat loads,

electrical distribution and traffic flow. They do feasibility studies and

financial analysis for the project. Architects prepare bidding documents,

participate in contract negotiations and select construction firms to do

the work. Architects monitor the work as it happens to ensure it lives up

to the client’s plans. During the construction phase, Architects manage

contract administration, oversee drawings and specifications, handle

problems that arise on the job site and monitor work in progress.

Architecture as a Profession

• Artistic imagination and creative vision to design spaces where their ideas & techniques come together to fulfill our aesthetic & cultural needs.

• Practical and technical knowledge to create spaces that are safe, functional , efficient, sustainable and meet economic needs required skills? The role of an architect is quite diverse, and so are the skills and personal qualities required:

• Excellent designing skills

• Imaginative and creative thinking

• An ability to analyse and critically assess problems

• An ability to see the big picture as well as give attention to the smallest detail

• An ability to communicate effectively

• An understanding of history, cultural and environmental concerns

• Excellent project management skills

What does it take tobe an Architect?

The fast changing world economy has posed a challenge to the educational institutions to constantly revamp the discourse

patterns. At IEC, we strive to gain a competitive edge in this arena. Having recognized the paradigm shift taking place in the

management education to meet the aspiration of industry, we conduct the programs adding suitable values to the personality

of students.

In the Globalization era, when the corporate houses in business management and IT are expanding their wings all over the

globe, need arises to produce quality pool which possesses the skill set required by the employers. Keeping this in mind, we

at IEC initiated teaching methodology which works towards enhancing the skills of the students, so that they can be the best

human resource to match the industry requirements.

To do so IEC has adopted latest techniques in teaching methods which includes case studies, practical exercises, corporate

guest lectures to fill up the gap between industry and academics, group activities to teach them how to work in team,

practical exercises, and individual counseling for addressing their issues related to academics etc. The use of electronic media

like PowerPoint presentations, use of internet, e-learning, mobile learning the classrooms helps students to understand the

concepts better. Our students are constantly encouraged to do projects, give presentations, visit industries and attend several

guest sessions in addition to individual mentoring sessions with the faculties.
