Architectural Engineering Department
With the growth of building industry in Goa, the number of practicing Architects and Interior Designers has been increasing. Further the need is increasingly felt for trained assistants to work in the office of Architects, Interior designers and Town Planning Departments. Keeping these views in mind, the Diploma programme in Architectural Assistantship was started in 1996. However with AICTE approval now this course is designated as Diploma in Architectural Engineering with an intake of 30 students and the basic eligibility criteria is 50 % at S.S.C. level. This is the first and only such course in Goa.
It is a 3 year Diploma programme, each year spanning 2 semesters. This course is designed to train students to work as efficient Architectural Engineers. The students in the Final year have to work on projects and undergo practical training for 12weeks. The department is well equipped with spacious studios, with drafting boards and lockers. It has a well qualified and experienced staff.
The department has a Computer Studio known as Design studio. It helps the students to be conversant with the drawing software programmes so that such skill can add value to their employability. The entire computer based skills of designing and drawing required to handle an architectural assistant’s job well are exposed to the students. The Design studio has been funded for up-gradation under the MODROBS scheme of Govt. of India.
