The Bachelor of Architecture (B.Arch.) is a five-year undergraduate professional program focused on architectural design, building construction, planning, and the development of functional, sustainable, and aesthetically appealing built environments. The program combines design studios with architectural graphics, building science, construction technology, structural concepts, building services, urban planning, architectural conservation, sustainability, professional practice, and a final thesis.

Candidates must have earned at least 45% of the possible points in Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics at the secondary level (Class 12), Engineering Diploma, A Level, or an equivalent test from an accredited school, or a CGPA of 2 (on a 4-point scale).
In the letter grading system, each of these topics (mathematics, chemistry, and physics) must receive a minimum of 45% or a C. A minimum of a D is needed for an A Level.
Students may apply and take the entrance exam even if they have passed other subjects but have poor grades in math, chemistry, or physics.
After completing the program, graduates will be able to:
Apply architectural principles to design functional, safe, and aesthetically appropriate buildings.
Develop architectural concepts, drawings, models, and detailed design proposals.
Apply knowledge of building materials, construction methods, structures, and building services.
Use CAD and other digital tools for architectural drafting, modeling, and visualization.
Integrate environmental sustainability, energy efficiency, and climate-responsive approaches into designs.
Analyze site conditions, human needs, cultural contexts, and urban environments.
Apply principles of urban planning, landscape design, and architectural conservation.
Prepare working drawings, specifications, estimates, and construction documentation.
Manage architectural projects and collaborate effectively with engineers, contractors, and other professionals.
Conduct architectural research and develop solutions to complex design and built-environment challenges.
Demonstrate professional ethics, communication, teamwork, and project-management skills.
Pursue careers as architects, architectural designers, planners, consultants, conservation specialists, and construction professionals.
