Crescent School of Architecture (B.S.Abdur Rahman University)

Admission: The teachers here are super helpful with design problems. They're really friendly and push us to do our best. They even stay late with us in the studio and keep us motivated. Our Dean, Ar. G. Jayalakshmi, is always there for us, cheering us on and celebrating our achievements. I'm so thankful for all the support she gives us.

Placement: As an architecture student, we have the chance to become leaders or start our own business. In our fourth year, we have a 120-day internship with an architect. It's a cool way to experience real architect life. During the internship, we learn a lot about the industry. Plus, architects come by every two weeks to check our work. It's a great way to make connections. There aren't set jobs after college, so we have to hustle and find opportunities ourselves. It's exciting to explore job options and internships!

Campus: The college has awesome infrastructure! The classrooms are bright and the studios are big, making it a nice place to be. My favorite spot was the model making workshop on the mezzanine floor. They have cool stuff like laser cutting machines, CNC machines, and 3D printers to help us make realistic models. Plus, there are VR gadgets to play around with. Definitely a 5/5 for me!

Admission: The teachers at our college are really good at what they do. They know their stuff and some have been teaching for a long time. The ratio of students to teachers is just right. We go on field trips during the first three years and get hands-on training for a year. It's cool!

Placement: If you're in the B.Arch course, don't expect placements from this college. But don't worry, the college's reputation is solid and you can land a job in top firms all across India. The architecture classes are top-notch thanks to the awesome faculty and their monthly workshops. Overall, it's a good college to be in.

Campus: The best thing about this college is how great the buildings are. Each course has its own modern block with everything you need. They keep fixing up all the buildings regularly. There are lots of cool things on campus. The architecture block is especially awesome. And each department has its own library with lots of good books.

Admission: The college has plenty of teachers who really know their stuff. They teach us not just from the books, but also what's happening in real life. Some visiting teachers also have both book smarts and real-world experience. They push us to do our projects independently, but they're there to support us when we need it.

Placement: A lot of seniors from our college are doing well at different companies. Some have even made their own company, which is awesome because it's tough to get a job in your field after college. A few students have also opened a cafe on the side. It helps them meet new people and get more projects for their company.

Campus: Red Architects is working on projects at our college. They're using wind direction and sun path along with what we've learned in the past 5 years. Our architecture department is new, but it's already the best-looking and most user-friendly.

Admission: In our college, there's a good ratio of three design staff for around 40 students in each class. They also bring in outside experts for feedback during our projects. We learn theory through presentations and get to attend seminars led by well-known architects. It's really helpful!

Placement: The college doesn't help with job placements for architecture students like they do for engineering students. We have to find our own jobs or go for further studies. So, if you're looking for placement help in architecture, this isn't the place for you.

Campus: The college campus is awesome, with separate lecture halls and drafting studios. They have this cool joint studio setup with a mezzanine level for model making. The architecture drafting furniture is specially designed, and they have labs like Cadd lab and climatology lab. It's a great place for architecture students!
