IPSA, Rajkot

The best part is the environment of a campus. Great infrastructure is provided, curriculum is good, best college in region. Small family of 350-400 people. Very helpful to the students studying there. But all have few negative points but we can always neglect them in front of the positive side of it.

Architecture is very fascinating field. Curriculum is very difficult and hard also different then other engineering disciplines. Exam structure is almost similar excluding for few subjects where you had to attend the exam of 4-5 hrs.

There is no job placement for the faculty of architecture. But college do provide internship program. They moderate the program of 6 months of professional experience. I was in Bangalore for my internship program.

There's formal students' body/ council. So as a council we do celebrate annual festival arrange professional lectures of experts and other occasional festivals celebrated with them college Foundation day and other tournaments are been held by the college.

Fees structure are per semester payment. It is expensive than other engineering disciplines. Considering other stationary expenses. Most of them are of drafting tools and sketchbooks. Rest can be compared as feasible.

There is no scholarship programs offered by the college that I know of but I opted for education loan amount of full fees structure and stationary expenses. It could have been better if college could have given the opportunity of scholarship.

There are various extracurricular and cocurricular activities. There are on field workshop. Which are hands-on training workshop and expert architects' lectures, sport tournaments, electives and related study programs held at the college. They are the best in region.

There's a good network of alumni association. It's a working body started right after first batch graduated. It's known as IPSA alumni association. They are very helpful in all the manner from professional to real life problems.

First of all we need to attend examination of NATA (National aptitude test for architecture) than from the obtained results and 12th results merit list will be prepared and based on that we can choose the college. So I choose IPSA, Rajkot there.

Faculty members are great there. As our curriculum is different than other engineering disciplines course demand different method of teaching. Also there are many on field work so there are many practicing experts are there as faculty.
