Qualifies For

Admission to the 5-year Bachelor of Architecture (B.Arch.) degree program at approved architectural institutions in India.

Profession Pathway

To practise as an 'Architect' and use that title in India, one must register with the Council of Architecture after completing a recognized qualification per the CoA (Minimum Standards of Architectural Education) Regulations, 2020. Falsely claiming to be a registered architect is a criminal offence under the Architects Act, 1972.
