• There are two types of Regular Courses
(a)
Theory courses
(executed by only lectures)
(b)
Application courses
(executed by studio/studies activities).
As the nature of Architecture course demand more focus on
Application than Theory, the Application Courses have more credits and more
interaction/teaching hours
Teaching pedagogy
The school’s ideology for design excellence in Architecture is through integration of the core Design Studio with Construction, History, Theory, Communication Skills, Technology and Professional Practice
This integration will be put into practice by encouraging students towards imaginative and skillful manipulation of form, as well as the capacity to draw inspiration from the different sections of the curriculum.
LJSA’s Design Studio’s will draw together, the students and the
faculties from
Architecture, Urban Design, Urban Planning, Architectural & Settlement Conservation, Sustainable Architecture, Infrastructure Planning and Habitat Management.
The idea here is to broaden the scope for the students and to make them aware about the
boundless and expansive field of Architecture
that lay in front of them at the end of
the five academic years
