Message from the HOD

R.H. Rukkumany

ASSOCIATE PROFESSOR

          At the department of Architecture our endeavour is to hone the creativity as well as the technical knowledge of the students. Here, the focus is on practical learning, with emphasis on doing and learning. In addition to class room learning, the students engage in varied activities such as interactive workshops, participating in NASA (National Association of Students of Architecture), national and international design competitions and organizing technical symposiums. In addition, expert lectures from the leaders in the field from India and abroad enrich the learning experience of the students. The Department is strengthened by contributions from a large number of visiting faculty from the field, thus ensuring that the learning is up to date and industry appropriate. Collaborations with Institutions of calibre from India and abroad in the form of joint studios and exchange programmes encourage peer learning and exposure to other cultures of learning. The teaching and non teaching staff of the department interact comprehensively with the students thus ensuring mentoring and guidance is always available for the students. Our campus is very well designed which spaces that enable formal and informal discussions on the subject of Architecture, design, society, art and other topics, creating an fertile environment that fosters creativity and innovation.
