AIM: All the four years of learning architectural design and allied subjects culminate in design thesis project to motivate a student in investigative attitude individual methodology, thus to train in handling projects independently. The Architectural Thesis is the culmination of the development of the student’s knowledge, attitudes and skills over the course of studies in architecture. It is an occasion for exercising conscious choices in the field, based on the student’s personal abilities and inclinations, and for testing out his commitment.


Course Content:

Thesis Project:

Each student will select a subject of an architectural interest in consultation with the committee appointed by the Head / Principal of the Dept. /Institution. The subject will have to be approved at the beginning of the eighth semester. The evolution of the thesis project will be continuous and the student will have to give at least three seminars/ submissions before the final submission. The thesis project shall be submitted in the form of bound report, drawings, models etc. in a manner as stipulated in THESIS MANUAL on the date prescribed by the Department.

The student, in consultation with the faculty, is expected to demonstrate through an imaginative approach, his expertise in effecting positive changes in our built environment.


Note: Architecture work programme and Architecture thesis manual shall be supplied by the department.
