SMVDU Reviews on Placements, Faculty and Facilities

i am fall in love with the course. actually I'm a architecture student and for us our course is only for practical life and we feel this. we have various field trip or case study trip by the university.

I was always enthusiatic about design and maybe it was the driving factor in me choosing this course. The course is really well planned in this industry things only start to make sense after you start working on the ground. I would like to suggest to introduce a course on comunication for the student because i think its a aspect a majority of them lacks.

Collage provides you with placement and pre placement opportunities tho architecture and few other courses does not have this facility and one has to search for jobs on its own. The placement opportunities are good and allows big companies like Amazon take students from the university.

Since i am in architecture i don't know much about placements because in here we do internship in our 7th sem and most students try to pursue higher education. Some are offered the job during internship only.

This course in very iconic cause this is different from other courses. I have very passionated to this course and i have interest in building structures and design. So i choose this course and i enjoy it .

Architecture course is more about creativity and practicality unlike other courses like B.TECH, BBA, ECONOMICS, ETC. which are available at this university. The faculty: student ratio is also quite good and the intake of students is less at this university. So the teachers are also able to concentrate on each student individually. The faculty currently in the architecture department is also highly qualified, most of the faculty members are either professionally working architects or have at least a master's degree from the best institutes in the country like IITs, SPAs, etc. As said before, architecture is more about practicality, so the faculty also emphasises practical work rather than just giving bookish knowledge. The term exams are quite easy and there is not much difficulty in passing them, but the main focus of students as well as teachers is on the jury held at the end of every semester.

I chose this course because it is pretty interesting and challenging at the same time. You have to complete all your assignments, and design problems before the deadline and it is quite hectic. The faculty here is very friendly and hardworking. They give their best to teach us in every possible way. The student ratio in my class is 50:50. The faculty of architecture is well qualified with master's and PhD. There are three exams (Minor 1, Minor 2, Major exams) and one jury (only in architecture) in a semester.

The college life is great. There is scenic beauty all around the campus. It is like a dream campus. The negatives are that there are curfew for girls students to enter hostel gates at 8:00 pm while none for boys. There are rules of not wearing shorts in hostel mess for girls.
