The way the campus came up in recent years is really amazing, providing very good feel and ambience for learning and interactions with central courtyard and old and new buildings with playfield at the back.

The course BArch is of 5 years, 10 semesters. The college is affiliated to VTU, Belgam, but the customised more involving curriculum by the faculty makes the course interesting. There are studies to be done regarding vast topics which is related to human living. Model making, drawing, design, documentation, internship, study tours and related study programs makes the course interesting, though the work load on students is more compared to other courses.

College assists in the internship application process to various firms across India. As it is a professional course, there are no placements and jobs offered in college by various companies, but it's one's responsibility to apply to desired firm to work at and go through their interview.
