Design & Architecture

Hi Children,

Many students have approached me with concern, unable to decide what course to pursue in higher education. I will write about one career option every week. Please make sure you read the blog. You can also visit my personal blog.

This week I am writing about Design & Architecture.

The population of India runs into billions as we all know. India in future will require "smart architects & designers". Employers will look to hire people who have novel ideas & be cost effective in implementing it. The idea of green buildings too is catching up.

Roads too are congested. There is absolutely no place for people to move. Same is the condition with rail traffic. Employers will look to hire people who can decongest traffic on roads & may be people who can design & create some new rail system or supesonic rails at an economical cost.

More so with Prime Minister in to developing "smart cities". The upcoming capital of Andhra Pradesh, Amaravati is also going to be a smart city with investments coming in from foreign countries.

With this agenda the following is worth looking into:(provided you like it & is your priority)

Bachelor's degree in civil engineering - Available in IIT, NIT & other reputed colleges & universities
Bachelor's degree in architecture- Govt colleges & other reputed universities &
School of planning & architecture- New delhi
Bachelor's degree in design- IIT Bombay(new course introduced)

After Bachelors degree you must specialise further: A few options are listed below

Masters in urban planning & architecture- Anna University, Chennai
Masters in design- NID Ahmedabad & Bangalore
Masters in energy engineering- CSIR.
Masters in landscape architecture- Anna University,Chennai

.

Thats good enough for a start.
See you next week.

Rules and regulations

School is a second home to children. At APS Golconda we nurture children to be good citizens, therefore lessons imparted to children are planned in such a manner that values are imbibed by the children. Values like punctuality and regularity form the edifice of all other activities in the school. At APSG we are particular in inculcating the value of time and time bound work. Thus it starts with the students reaching school in time.Work is expected to be completed by children in time.Punctuality is an important virtue and we at APS Golconda are particular about time. Here May I request parents to ensure that students reach school in time. Students must reach school by 07 30 h. The first bell will ring at 07 35 h. Thank you parents for always being supportive.

Lets remember: Time and tide wait for none.

APS Golconda wishes all the students,parents and well wishers a joyful Diwali!!




Diwali is synonymous with lights and crackers and fireworks. Lights and fireworks undoubtedly gives an elated feeling: lets take a minute to think about the extent of labor,more so child labor involved in making crackers.The lesser you use fireworks ,the lesser the labor involved.
The sky is indeed  mesmerizing during diwali. Lets be gentle on ourselves and our fellow beings. Burn less of crackers and turn to a Green Diwali.

Enjoy the festival by sharing and caring!!
