Hello,

Yes, you can get admission to B Arch after passing B Tech in Electronics and Communication Engineering. The minimum education qualification requirement for admission to B.Arch is 10+2 or it's equivalent. There are two entrance examinations for admission to B.Arch in India

  1. JEE Main Paper 2
  2. National Aptitude Test in Architecture (NATA)

You need to apply for either of the exam to get seat in B.Arch. The admission process will be conducted separately by each institute. The eligibility criteria to appear for JEE Main is that a candidate must have passed 10+2 or its equivalent with Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry from a recognised board. A candidate can apply for JEE Main for three consecutive years from thr year of passing in the qualifying examination. JEE Main is conducted twice in a year.

To be eligible to apply for NATA a candidate must have passed 10+2 or its equivalent with Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry with minimum 50% marks in these three subjects and must have scored minimum 50% overall in 10+2 or its equivalent examination. Or a candidate must have passed Diploma in Engineering with Mathematics with minimum 50% marks from a recognised board. NATA is conducted thrice in a year. Depending on the institute you wish to get admission you may have to appear for the specified exam (JEE MAIN or NATA). Here is the link where you can find the list of colleges offering B Arch, you can also find which exam score is accepted by the institute

Hi,

Yes you can.

You can do B.Arch after completing your engineering graduation in electronics and communication (ECE). However few of the universities offer to have admission in post graduation course of architecture if you are doing civil engineering and have scored well in your engineering courses like school of planning and architecture (SPA) in Delhi.

Architecture is a professional degree and for doing M.Arch. you are supposed to complete B.Arch. first. B.Arch. and then M.Arch. - that is the way to become a licensed architect.

Anyway there is always a round about way of doing things. After completing your B.Tech. in Electronics you can try to get admission in M.Tech. in Civil Engineering and enter the field of Architecture without a valid license. After you get some experience you can manage the show. Another way is to do a diploma or certificate in Architecture and start your own work or join a company and work under some qualified Architect.



Hope this helps.

Good luck.
