JOB OPPORTUNITIES
Opportunities for Architects are very wide ranging from the design of a small

townships. Architects are mostly self employed immediately after graduation. The
sandwiched practical training - which they undergo during their seventh semester
of studies, shapes them to be a professional.
Apart from their private practice the Architects can get employment in
government and public sector organizations like PWD, CPWD, P&T, HUDCO, NBCC, MES,
Railways, Housing & Slum clearance Boards, City Corporations & Development
Authorities, Health, Police, Social Welfare, Industries, Transport and Tourism
Departments. They also have good opportunities in the upcoming and world wide
recognized areas like low cost, Ecofriendly, Redevelopment, Upgradation,

Architect is basically an Interior Designer too. Those who specialize more on
this can become successful Interior designers also.
