Aswathi Ajayakumar's Review On IES College Of Architecture, Mumbai

Good decent college. Worth doing the course. No complaints. Just that being the forst batch it took a year to settle down in to the course

It was a 5 year course and all exams structured well and given proper notice. Semester exams happened every 6 months, once in January and the other mostly in june or july. The course provided good industry specific coaching and was very helpful for me to get a job. Campus placements not available at that time

Placements were not a part of the course as it was architecture. But we had regular site visits and speeches by architects and was also a part of 1 year internship in architecture firms

Archnova - Its a festival of Arts conducted by the department itself for its students. Nearly 200 architecture students take part in that. The names may differ year to year. Apart from this there were a few sports meet and cultural events that tool place yearly to engage students

Fees Structure for Architecture was around 2 Lakhs per annum and few other fees were being collected. Over all the fees structure would mount up to 12 L over the course of 5 years for Architecture. Caution refundable deposit of 1 Lakh was also collected then

Scholarship is offered to Students based on Merit. They have reduction in the fees structure. The approximate amount for a student through merit was around 4 Lakhs which was half than other non merit students

Sports competition was happening regularly every year. The cultural fests also took place yearly. The course gender ratio was 40 percent of Male and 60 percent of female students. The college was good enough to not be any biased to a community or religion

Not much as we were the first batch that started in the year 2012. We had the first experience and was not bad at all.

Management Quota. Had to attend the interview with the management and pass the face to face interview. The college had its own reputation and was easy to chose. I had a flair for drawings so chose the Architecture course. The admission interview happened in August

Excellent i must say. Very knowledgeable set of faculty. Very experienced. More than 10 faculty were available in the department during the year 2017. All faculty were qualified and had certification of being architects and qualified to teach. Average age was around 40
