SYNOPSIS
1. SYNOPSIS

1.1 Need for study: -

• There is a need of architecture which not only provides education but also to explore
construction techniques and
design methods.
• Coming to schools the campus should be in way, students would like to stay in campus.
• The interaction between students plays a key role in making them to stay in campus
• Interaction between students can be attained can be attained by connecting spaces, as it’s in
our hand to design a campus much likely for students.

1.2 Background study: -

• There are only three SPAs, amongst them SPA was the first one to be established in the year
1941, followed by SPA Vijayawada and SPA Bhopal in the year 2008.
• In 2015, the government proposed to set up fourth SPA in Aurangabad with a budget of Rs 10
crore. This step taken by the government was lauded by the architecture community.
• This proposal will not only change the face of the city but also benefits the students passing
education in architecture field.

1.3 Aim: -

• The aim of this design is to make the campus environment more interactive by linking those
spaces which are divided by walls.

1.4 Objectives : -

1.4.1 Study objectives: -


To design lively spaces to bring interaction among the students and teachers to make the
building an ideal place for education.

1.4.2 Design objectives: -


Rooms can be aligned in way; their walls will not be a total obstruction between them and stop
interaction between those spaces.
•By designing classrooms, in which students doesn’t feel they are not bounded by walls likely to
stay connected to environment, feels much more comfort to them and feel fresh to design.

•To study architectural characteristics and requirements of modern architecture of the city, to
enhance and addition of the new imageability of the city.

1.5 Scope :

•-This study mainly focuses on creating spaces which makes campus much more interesting for
students would like to stay in.
•-This study also deals with reflections of environment with campus.

BACKGROUND
STUDY
2.BACKGROUND STUDY

2.1 Formal learning space:

2.1.1 Introduction:
MIT researchers who assessed their Technology Enabled Active Learning (TEAL) project
found that the deployment of an active learning curriculum in redesigned spaces performed
better than lecturing techniques in a traditional classroom in terms of reducing failure rates and
increasing conceptual understanding (Dori et al, 2003). that the classrooms and curriculum
associated with their Student-Cantered Activities for Large Enrolment Undergraduate Programs
(SCALE-UP) reduced failure rates and contributed to conceptual understanding while improving
class attendance, student attitudes, and problem-solving skills (Buechner et al., 2007; Gaffney
et al., 2009).

2.1.2 How formal and informal learning spaces affect student


consequences:
This report describes a study of the impact of learning space design on student and instructor
behaviour. We investigated learning space features that enable guided inquiry instruction in two
different classrooms, a typical node classroom, and a spoke classroom, the Steelcase Learn
Lab. Students report that group cohesiveness, engagement, task orientation, and cooperation
are encouraged in both classrooms. Both classrooms are not equally satisfactory for the same
types of activity, however. The Spoke classroom best supports and is preferred for group
activities such as case studies, discussions, and debates. The seating offers excellent
sightlines, enabling everyone in the room to easily interact with everyone else as well as see
visual presentations. The seating arrangement in the Node classroom fragments the class into
small study/research groups, making it an ideal environment to apply various well-known small-
group active learning methods such as "Physics by Inquiry" and "Process-Oriented Guided-
Inquiry Learning".

2.1.3 isolated classrooms:


Classrooms being Isolated affects the student’s mental health.
2.1.4 lack of spaces in campus:
Lack of different types of learning spaces.
2.1.5 isolated by boundaries in campus:
A completely solid and closed boundary isolate the inhabitants from their surroundings.
Creating openings in the boundary is a different statement.

3.OUTCOMES

3.1 CONCLUSION FOR FORMAL LEARNING SPACES/INFORMAL LEARNING


SPACE:
The preceding observational analysis has contributed a significantly improved understanding
of how formal classroom space shapes the behaviour of instructors and students who work
within them.
In general terms, we have provided empirical evidence of a causal relationship that can be
stated best in syllogistic terms:
space shapes instructor behaviour and classroom activities.
Instructor behaviour and classroom activities shape on-task student behaviour; therefore.
space shapes on-task student behaviour. Specifically, different classroom types are conducive
to different outcomes: traditional classrooms encourage lectures at the expense of active
learning techniques while ALCs marginalize the effectiveness of lectures while punctuating the
importance of active learning approaches to instruction, but both are effective at producing high
levels of on-task student behaviour.

3.2 EFFECT AFTER REDESIGNING FORMAL TO INFORMAL SPACE:

The redesigned classroom has affected student learning behaviour in terms of the learner
cantered environment, self-directed and independent learning, improved 21st-century skills, and
better peer interaction. Data were collected through questionnaires, observations and focus
group discussions from four secondary schools in Selangor, Malaysia which had redesigned
classrooms. The findings show that the classrooms allow students to enjoy more learner
cantered activities with easy access to technology and learning is more individualized. Having
access to materials online allowed students to view them as many times as they wanted to help
internalize their understanding. Students are also encouraged to be self-directed and practice
self-learning by discussing and

Topic name : School of Planning and architecture Page no:04 16041AA061


sharing ideas which helped build their confidence. Students reported developing better
information skills, communication skills, negotiation skills, and other 21st century skills. The
redesigned classrooms provide a safe environment for better peer interaction and participation
in learning among students. Students are comfortable to engage in better learning and
understanding in the redesigned classroom with improved levels of motivation and interest.

3.3 OUTCOMES FOR ISOLATION FOR CLASSROOMS:

3.3.1The flexibility of physical arrangement :


The arrangement of a smart classroom and its elements should be such that it allows agile
and easy variations in activities, that is, make it possible to change student grouping, the type of
resources being used, use of various types of resources at the same time, ICT and non-ICT, for
different students to carry out different tasks, e.g. searching information, discussing, watching a
video, etc. Therefore, classrooms will be supplied with varied furniture elements to achieve the
flexibility of space arrangement, for instance using movable, rolling desks and chairs, or
stackable, folding chairs, ergonomically spaces, areas for different uses, etc.

3.3.2 Adaptability :
From the idea that every teacher and every class is different, and that space can be adapted
to their needs, the concept of smart classrooms includes the principle of adaptability to the type
and needs of the teacher and of each student. Adaptability must do also with space which
enables the inclusion of students and teachers with special education needs. Therefore,
classrooms will have furniture and objects that help in catering for learning difficulties, such as
the ones impaired students have.
3.3.3 Comfort :
A smart classroom should be a place arranged to comfortably do various activities –reading,
watching videos, playing, listening to music and audios, writing, talking, debating,
experimentation, and so on. Under this principle, elements which enable this well-being should
be included in the learning space for the various tasks to be done for learning, such as
couches, pillows, rugs and carpets, comfortable chairs, Bulletin of the IEEE Technical
Committee on Learning Technology, Volume 15, Number 3, July 2013 20 lecterns, desks and
tables of various types, headsets, right lighting, etc.

3.3.4 Multiplicity :
This principle refers to smart classrooms having features that enable the use of various types
of resources and stimuli. While teaching and learning, the arrangement should enable
possibilities for creativity, reasoning, logical thinking, etc., and it should be adapted as close as
possible to learners’ various needs and learning styles. Thus, it should be an open space
where we can have access to any source of information, either physical or in digital format
particularly.
3.3.5 Connectivity :
The concept of connectivity has a twofold character. On one hand, it is required that the
learning space has good network connectivity, both local and global, to use to the most the
potential of mobile devices. Connectivity should be wireless, and this is fundamental to
maximize physical mobility around the space and comfort in using technology. On the other
hand, beyond digital connectivity there exists social and informational connectivity.

Topic name : School of Planning and architecture Page no: 05 16041AA061


Through networks, students live connected to teachers, friends, family, professionals and many
information sources, both in their immediate surroundings and from distant places. This
connectivity should not be underestimated by teachers, who should explore their possibilities
and evaluate to what extent they can contribute to improving learning space and learning
processes. To some extent, this principle can be linked to the theoretical framework of
Connectivism.

3.3.6 Personalization
Smart classrooms should allow students and teachers to personalize their environment
according to their likes and needs. Therefore, we are not referring to a standard, impersonal,
cold environment, but space which progressively teacher and students should make their own,
personalizing it using activities which support and reinforce learning.

3.3.7 Order / Organization


This is an important principle, even though it is not easy to design, and attain, sustainable
placing, storing, arrangement and rules of use of spaces and resources available. For this
reason, teachers should carefully consider the order and arrangement of spaces and resources
so that these are the most adequate for the learning activities that will take place in their smart
classroom. At times, a chaotic space may foster creativity, but in any case, this chaos should
be controlled and re-oriented whenever necessary. After each activity is over, resources should
be available to another student, another group of students, or a different activity.

3.3.6 Openness
This principle relates to the false and rooted belief that learning takes place only in the formal
space in the traditional classroom, where the teacher presents information and gives a lesson
in a transmissive way. Learning, however, takes place beyond the classroom space, both
physically and virtually, and therefore activities put forward for smart classrooms should
consider these extended learning places and learning times to learn beyond the classroom and
the class times traditionally assigned.

3.3.7 Safety / Security


Learning spaces with heavy technological integration require that hardware and software have
a high degree of security. Smart classrooms will have an arrangement that prevents users from
having physical accidents and will also be safe in terms of access to information and
communication on the Internet from the classroom. Therefore, security systems will be
considered when conceptualizing and designing smart classrooms. In sum, the arrangement,
structure, methodologies, and principles of smart classrooms intend that learning experience
be as likely as people’s learning ways, preferences, and styles, in a natural way and a personal
space; all this through active participation, experimentation, collaboration, solidarity, rapport,
creativity, leadership, and so on..

3.3.8 Conclusion
The structure and arrangement of traditional classroom space do not go with changes that
happened in educational agents, methodology and social context.
Smart classrooms rethink learning space and learners’ expectations about what this space,
along with resources and methodologies, should be like.

Topic name : School of Planning and architecture Page no:06 16041AA061


The concept of smart classrooms rests on the intersection of three axes: design of its space and
ergonomic; integration of ICT in a functional, invisible, justified and intensive way; and an
innovative pedagogical methodology, based on teaching principles such as collaborative
learning, project-based learning, curricular globalization, students’ autonomy, and educational
co-responsibility.
The design and implementation of a smart classroom should contemplate a flexible structure
adapted to users’ needs, comfortable, with multiple resources, socially and digitally connective,
personalized, tidy, open to its immediate environment and the world, and lastly, safe for its users
and safe in its technological equipment.

3.4 Addition of types of learning spaces in collage:

Most of this post will be about how to create a semi-permanent study area in your dorm
room or apartment. Before we get to that, however, I think it’s good to look at all the different
types of study spaces you (probably) have available to you as a college student

3.4.1The Library
Quiet. Most college libraries, mine included, are divided into different noise level zones. Mine
ranged from “collaborative” (talking at a normal volume allowed) to quiet (whisper only if
necessary) to silent (don’t you dare even cough). I usually went quiet and then put on
headphones to block out extraneous noise.
Spacious. That is, enough room for me to spread out all my books, external mouse, computer,
writing materials, and snacks. Ideally, I would grab one of the common area tables on the first
floor of the library.
Empty. This one was a bit trickier, but I tried to find a place that didn’t have a lot of foot traffic or
other distractions. Because if I was looking up every five minutes to say hi to someone I knew, it
wouldn’t be a very productive session.

3.4.2 Academic Buildings


For the right subject, academic buildings can be great places to study. Some departments even
have study lounges or “labs” devoted to their subject.
For instance, my college had a “math lab” where you could go to work on your math
home work have tutors available to answer any of your questions. There was also a
similar area for all STEM students. If you’re taking a class in one of these disciplines, I
would strongly encourage you to use all the resources the department provides.
Furthermore, studying in an academic building can be very useful when you’re preparing for
exam As Thomas explains in the video below, simulating the test conditions is a great way
to combat test anxiety and boost your recall of information through context deepener memory.
If you can find out where the exam will take place and then do a few study sessions in that
room, it can help boost your exam grades.

3.4.3 Miscellaneous Places In Campus


I won’t spend a ton of time on this one, as I think there are generally better places to study, but I
had some friends who did all their studying in places that were neither the library nor a dorm.
These included places like the student centre lounge, under a tree on the quad, or even the
dining hall. I could never get much serious work done in a place like this (too many distractions),
but if it works for you, then go for it. These can be good places to meet for collaborative work,
though even then I would suggest that a common space in the library would probably be better
since it has a more studious atmosphere.

3.5 Outcome for isolating boundaries:

3.5.1 Role of boundaries in defining a space


The architectural boundary is considered a term implying division, separation of space, yet it is
also used to imply notions of spatial perception. Architecture equips people with tools to regard
their surroundings in many ways. To build a wall means to set a boundary to define space. A
completely solid and closed boundary isolate the inhabitants from their surroundings. Creating
openings in the boundary is a different statement. The inner space is open to outer space. The
movement between the two is free and nothing is blocking the sight in either direction. allows a
view to the outside from the inside and vice versa. The choice of the boundary relates to the
context of the place and the character of the space, that the designer wants to create. The
boundary must allow passage between the inside and the outside spaces. The most interesting
phenomenon is when the definition of the boundary itself is being questioned. It can be done in
the form of a window, a door or an opening. And those openings create the transitional space
between in and out. Those openings challenge the role of the boundary, they protect the user
from the outer space, but they no longer create the strict separation between the inside and the
outside space.

3.5.2 Types of boundaries


Strong boundaries:
That marks the desire or need of clear detachment between interior and exterior, thus the
interior becoming a safe space; the communication with the outside is highly controlled and
filtered, defining the individuality of the spaces it disconnects/connects.
Diffuse boundaries:
Weak, blurry, that emphasizes the communication facilitated through the boundary, the
continuity and overlapping of inside and outside space.
Spatialized boundaries:
As intermediary places that assume a specific, negotiation function; they are hybrid places that
combine (sometimes even contradictory) characteristics of the neighboring spaces, developing,
however, their particularities, continuously subjected to redefinitions and responding to changes
and impulses coming from both directions.
To make the passage from boundary to boundary-space, analyzing the theoretical coordinates
which led to the elaboration of concepts like intermediate space or other spaces.

3.5.3 Ways to link two spaces of different functions:


It’s natural to think two separate entities with a strict boundary in between. But linking indoor and
outdoor spaces – even if it’s only a tiny garden or terrace – can help an interior feel larger. With
the exterior connection to the house, your eye sees further, and a garden-facing room appears
larger.
When you get it right, you are more likely to spend your days with the doors open, enjoying lots
of daylight and fresh air. Pulling off this clever trick doesn’t have to mean a huge spend, either.

3.5.4 Introduce more glazing


Boost the glazed elements at the back of the room and you’ll make both garden and sky view
part of the room. You may be able to add roof lights to an existing space and they can be
designed into an extension. More costly is a glass roof, and if you’re ready to push the boat out,
glass beams can reduce the indoors-outdoors barrier further Consider installing windows with
garden views if the house’s original design skimped on these; it’s often achievable under
permitted development but check your circumstances with local planners. Windows can create
an unexpected view of a garden feature or landscape, so use glazing as a frame.

Topic name : School of Planning and architecture Page no: 08 16041AA061


3.5.5 lose the wall
For maximum connection to your outside space, swap a solid wall for the one you can see
through using contemporary glazed doors. I fold doors with narrow framing are a popular choice
for creating a seamless indoor-outdoor link, with many styles, colors, and sizes available.
However, other options could offer a better solution for your needs. If the aim is to introduce
more natural light, sliding doors are also worth considering. With fewer mullions, they let in more
sunlight, and, as they can only be opened half the width of bi-folds, they offer a good comprise if
you just want half of the back of the house opened to the garden. Think about how much of a
link you want to create: do you need a 6m opening in the back of your house, allowing the wind
to blow all your stuff around? French doors work well on period properties, and they let in twice
as much light like a window, while Art Deco or warehouse-style Cristal windows work well as a
pair of doors between glazed side panels
3.5.6 Choose materials carefully:
Incorporating finishes outside that are usually regarded as choices for indoors, and vice versa
effectively blurs boundaries between the two areas. Alternatively, paint garden walls and fences
in shades often used inside – just make sure it’s an exterior paint or stain suitable for your
surface. You can also put wall tiles on planter boxes outside

3.5.7 Design the spaces as one


Building on to your home? Consider the addition and the garden as one space, design
accordingly, and they’ll inevitably feel more connected. Bench seating could extend from indoors
to out, for example, while kitchen worktop might be positioned in a run that carries straight on
from inside the extension to form an outdoor kitchen. Built-in raised planters in the same
material as the extension will also make two distinct areas into one harmonious whole.

3.5.8 Surround yourself with plants


Adding greenery where the house meets the garden is a clever way to merge the two for a
space-stretching impression. If you want to take this approach from the inside, position plants by
the window. Sizeable specimens are essential but think about the shape and density of foliage
to maintain views and keep light coming in – palm-like or spiked leaves can work a
treat. Outside, bring garden planting close to the house to make the two spaces feel like one.
Build raised beds to window height so plants are at eye level when you’re seated at a table or
on the sofa or choose tall planters.

3.5.9 Create an outdoor room:


Take the living room into the garden to make your home feel bigger all summer. Furnishing the
exterior space as you would the indoors makes it feel like a continuation: think supportive
upholstered sofas and armchairs. Made-for-outdoors lounge seating will stand up to garden life,
and you can pick from a corner sofa that will zone the living area or create sociable groupings
with sofas and chairs facing or at a right angle. Gather seating around a coffee table or
introduce side tables to keep drinks to hand. Consider adding an outdoor rug, too: opt for pattern
and you can give the seating space a decorative twist as well.

3.5.10 Add a pergola right outside


A pergola or other structure built on to the house is a simple way to give the impression of an
outdoor room that extends your house. The vertical element will help define the space in a way
a terrace or deck alone can’t achieve, and it can introduce welcome shade that’s either created
by the design of the structure itself or the plants grew up it .

DATA COLLECTION
4.DATA COLLECTION

The School of Planning and Architecture had a modest beginning in 1941 as a Department of
Architecture of Delhi Polytechnic.
It was later affiliated to the University of Delhi and integrated with the School of Town and
Country Planning which was established in 1955 by the Government of India to provide
facilities for rural, urban and regional planning.
On integration, the School was renamed as School of Planning and Architecture in 1959.
Recognizing the specialized nature of the fields in which the School had attained eminence, in
1979, the Government of India, through the then Ministry of Education and Culture, conferred
on the School of Planning and Architecture the status of "Deemed to be a University". With this
new status, the School had broadened its horizon by introducing new academic and extension
programs and promoting research and consultancy activities. It was recognized as "An Institute
of National Importance under an Act of Parliament" in 2015.

"An Institute of National Importance under an Act of Parliament" in 2015.
The School has taken lead in introducing academic programs in specialized fields both at
bachelor’s and master’s levels, some of which are even today not available elsewhere in India.
Human habitat and environment being the basic concern of the School, the spectrum of
academic programs is being continuously extended by providing programs in new fields and
emerging areas for which facilities are not available, yet, anywhere else in the country.
In India, there are a total of three Spas’, the first one started in Delhi than in Bhopal and newly
in Vijayawada.

4.0.1 COURSES OFFERED IN SPA’S

School offers planning, architecture, and design courses both at undergraduate and
postgraduate levels. While the Bachelor of Architecture course is one of the oldest in the
country, a highly successful Bachelor of Planning course was started in 1989. Besides, the
School offers 10 postgraduate programs and 2 undergraduate programs along with the doctoral
programs run by all the departments of studies

• 6.3 Climate
• Ahmedabad has a hot, semi-arid climate (kipper climate classification: bsh), with
marginally less rain than required for a tropical savanna climate. there are three main
seasons: summer, monsoon and winter. aside from the monsoon season, the climate is
extremely dry. the weather is hot from march to June; the average summer maximum is
43 °c (109 °f), and the average minimum is 24 °c (75 °f). from November to February, the
average maximum temperature is 30 °c (86 °f), the average minimum is 13 °c (55 °f), and
the climate is extremely dry. cold northerly winds are responsible for a mild chill in
January. the southwest monsoon brings a humid climate from mid-june to mid-
september. the average annual rainfall is about 800 millimeters (31 in), but infrequent
heavy torrential rains cause local rivers to flood and it is not uncommon for droughts to
occur when the monsoon does not extend as far west as usual. the highest temperature
in the city was recorded on 18 and 19 May 2016 which was 50 °c (122 °f).

Architects philosophy is to elimination of classroom feeling ii. architecture without barriers iii.
integration of open spaces iv. ease of interaction between various departments.. center for
environmental planning and technology.
Features the building is set back 100ft from the main road and is covered by trees to create
the cool atmosphere inside the campus and is hardly visible from the main road… creation of
a proper working environment facilitating faculty and students to have free scope to learn and
teach anywhere……. exposed local materials for low cost, easy expansion and maintained…..
the design is intended to be close to nature and experiment the designing skills, play with,
levels etc..,the site was undulated and gave opportunity to play with levels…… there are
incline skylights on top of the studios, perpetually letting in natural light into the spaces….. the
studio spaces have bay spaces facing the exterior, creating semi-private spaces which are yet
totally open to the exterior spaces where the individual can be alone with nature even in the
environment of a studio….. center for environmental planning and technology.

6.6 Positioning of the buildings :-

The buildings are placed orthogonally with respect to the sides of the site and hence along
the cardinal points. keen observation in plan reveals that buildings are oriented in such a
passion that to avoid the harsh sun light. it only allows the light but not the hot sun to the
interiors during mid day when the sun is high. as we see, the buildings are placed according
to the sun direction, the south faced of the buildings has long projections and on the north
facade of the building has small projections…… Centre for environmental planning and
technology

6.7 Role of environment :-

The buildings are placed away from the main road with trees at the midst of road and
building site. they are acting as barriers that reduce the Nosie pollution from the road. these
trees covers the view of the building from outside center for environmental planning and

8.6 Design :

The design demonstrates a scale akin to a public building on the outside and the inside exploresv the
didactic nature of space by creating a humane scale apt for an engaged student community. The large
volume is punctured by voids, creating a rhythmic play of light and shadows which allows the building
to respire; thus, yielding spatial patterns that perform as a scaling device. The intent was to create

The design focuses on the diversity of individuals and the vastness of a community and creates Interd-
ependent programs that offer a multitude of interactive spaces that would be beneficial for a
community experience. Our ideas stem from an interest in developing interrelationships in which
students would participate in a non-hierarchical nature of the exchange.

 The middle section of the building is a ‘Stilted Platform’ that allows for student activity. This zone is a
reminder of the traditional courtyard that anchors common public and community programs. 
This ‘Universal zone’ is occupied by faculty, students, administrators and visitors enabling
non-programmed exchange.

8.7 Climate resonsive elements in design :
Diagram, North-South Section: “The form of the building is a direct response to the hot and humid
climate of Vijayawada, which enables shading and cross ventilation. North-light sections for studios
along withinsulation of the roof and landscaping create responsive configurations”.

Shadow Patterns: “The massing of the building creates a shaded environment in


and around the building throughout the day which is appropriate for a hot – humid
climate”.

The relationships between three sections -The Parasol, Concourse and the Platform have been struc
tured into a three-dimensional constellation that is informed by movement and varying levels of privacy
of diverse programs.

1 2 . 3 J U S T I F I C AT I O N A B O U T S I T E :

School of Planning and Architecture (SPA) is one of the National Prime Architectural Institute in India it was
first building was constructed and established in Delhi in 1941 as SPA-D and its new two college was con-
structed and established in Bhopal as SPA-B and in Vijayawada as SPA-V both in 2008. Its fourth branch is
proposed in Aurangabad, Maharashtra as SPA-A (School of Planning and Architecture — Aurangabad)

In 2015 it was declared by Indian Central Government and Government of Maharashtra to propose next
SPA in Aurangabad and selected its site in Marathwada University of Aurangabad. It after Delhi, Madhya
Pradesh and Andhra Pradesh, Maharashtra got a privilege to host the prime architecture institute in India.

The Architectural education in Maharashtra is quite developed and it is more active in the west Maharash-
tra region in city of Pune, Mumbai, etc. Despite this there is need of a certain prime institute to develop the
architecture education in the state of Maharashtra. School of Planning and Architecture will become the
center of advance architectural education for whole Maharashtra state.

The building will itself follow the architectural principles and traditional concepts to keep intact the architec-
tural belief and will enhance the beauty and Architectural heritage of the city

School of Planning and Architecture is nationally acclaimed as one of the best education and research cen-
tre for Architectural and planning field under the Central Government of Maharashtra.

School of Planning and Architecture offers professional educational program at


Bachelors and Masters level with two faculty stream and 10 departments.
The proposal of (SPA-A) School of Planning and Architecture will be set up in
Aurangabad, in Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar Marathwada University over an area about 13Acre. The campus
will provide education 750-800 undergraduate and post-graduate students with 100 teaching and assistant
teaching staff with total population of 900 people.

The proposal of (SPA-A) School of Planning and Architecture will be set up in
Aurangabad, in Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar Marathwada University over an area about 13
Acre. The campus will provide education 750-800 undergraduate and post-graduate
students with 100 teaching and assistant teaching staff with total population of 900
people

e School of Planning and Architecture will provide the below mention department in
undergraduate and post-graduate program of architectural education

1. Bachelor’s Degree in Architecture — Intake 40 (5 years)


2. Bachelor’s Degree in Planning — Intake 40 (4 years)
3. Master’s Degree in Architecture — Intake 20 (2 years)
4. Masters in Architectural Conservation
5.Masters in Urban Design
6. Masters in Landscape and Environmental Planning
7.Masters in Housing
8. Masters in [adustrial Design
9. Masters in Digital Architecture

Beside this confirmation there are also other justifications which will give strong reason to start the fourth
SPA in Aurangabad City

1. As seen in Maharashtra the prime National University/Institute are VNIT in Nagpur


region IITs in Mumbai region, COEP and other institutes in Pune region while Central
Maharashtra region does not have any renowned National university , Aurangabad is thecenter of Marath-
wada region and Maharashtra also, There are only 3 Architecture colleges for whole Marathwada region
which are insufficient to serve education for whole region resulting the students have to go to other cities or
sometimes out of state for quality education in Architecture.

2.As there is no any prime National Institute in Marathwada University there is no


development of the other institutes under University which lowers down its value. And
SPA is a prime National institute in India, if it is proposed in Aurangabad then not only
Architecture colleges, but also other institute under the University will develop
simultaneously.

3. Also, Aurangabad is situated at the center of Maharashtra state and is at equal distance from major cities
of Maharashtra and Aurangabad is recognized under smart city
development proposal of Central Government.

4. Aurangabad has rich historical background and heritage structures but lack in modern marvels and mod-
ern Architecture and the imageability of city not only depend on its historic architecture but also depend on
its modern architectural development.

5. SPA will not only satisfy the educational purpose of the Maharashtra state but also willenhance the im-
ageability of the city and give a new modern landmark to the city andstate.
