Remarks

I wanted to be an architect since I was in class 10, so I researched about the best colleges in the country and I was told that SPA, Delhi was very good with a great faculty team, and lots of visiting faculties and guest lecturers that provide an insight to the students regarding the architectural field and prepare you the for the world out there. Also, the college being in the capital city has its own perks like it gives quite an exposure and oppurtunities to the students. There are also structures that have been appreciated in architectural terms and often visits to such structures help the students understand what is expected in the current modern world.

The college management is good. Many people don't like that the college is so far from the city, but that's the case with many colleges that have big campuses.

Visiting faculties are Soo gud and they are gud aged people till 60years and have very gud in-depth knowledge and experience in practical field which is a plus point. Some departments are very good like transport having good staffs, but people are supposed to work beyond their limit. Some departments are too chill.
