Remarks
Overall I will say that it is the one of the best college in India. Here we get very nice environment, curriculum, experienced faculties etc. And this is what students need. We have a Nice management team also.
Entrance Preview
I gave NATA ( nation aptitude test for architecture) examination in 2016. It is 200 marks exam in which I scored 117 marks. I was a diploma student so I had 96% marks in diploma. So, my total cut off (50 NATA + 50 diploma) was 78.7. I applied for Architecture from acpc website and chosen the m.s. university as my first choice. I got admission in the mock round and also got the admission in final round also.
Course Curriculum Overview
The course is little difficult as you know it is a well know college. We get six subjects in every semester. The design studio is priority subject because we meant to be designers. We have subjects like building construction, building materials, sciography, perspective, structure etc. The students need to focus on all the subjects simultaneously for the betterment of their results. This is a 5-year long course and in final year we get 9 subjects in a semester. So it's Little difficult to handle 8 other subjects with final year design studio. Overall the curriculum is very nicely designed from the timing point of view.
Internships Opportunities
Yes! Our college provides the internship. In the first semester of 4th-year students have to go for an internship for 6 months to any respective architect of India. The architect must be registered in COA ( council of architecture). In some offices, we got the stipend and in some, we don't. It depends on the portfolio of the students work. In the internship, students get the actual experience of the market and the role of the architect to the society. So the experience of internship is very nice and meaningful to the students for their future startup.
Placement Experience
No. Our college does not provide placement. The students have to get the job on their own. After passing the course, students make the portfolio of their work done in the course and they get the jobs according to the quality of their work portfolio. Frankly speaking, m.s.university student easily gets the job in the well-known architects form in India because of the quality of work is better.
College Events
Oh! This is the best part of our department. We celebrate every festivals in our campus. Like Navaratri, Ganpati, Ram Navami, Matki for etc. And we also have an annual event named 'REFLECTION" Which is 3 days long event for the architecture students. In reflection, the students from all over Gujarat participate with great enthusiasm. That's what makes it a successful event. You can Google it.
