Placements are average in SPA Bhopal.

Placements: It's a course where there aren't many campus placements. A few come and take a select few students. They generally check the CGPA and portfolio of the students and choose the tentative students based on that. The interview process usually consists of a few general and a few professional questions. The tentative percentage of students placed is somewhere between 20 and 30 percent.

Placements are poor, faculty is okayish at best, hostels are good, and infrastructure is okay.

Placements: Only a few students get placed every year as there are very few jobs in architecture, the recruiting companies pay very little, the working hours are very high, and there is no work-life balance. The only way out is to start your own firm. Most students pursue Masters either in planning or go abroad rather than getting placed.

One of the best places to study architecture in India.

Placements: If you are into placements, then please don't choose architecture. Placements are average here; you can expect 4 to 5 LPA. But after a few years of experience, you can be at 10 to 12 LPA. We do have a placement cell but that is not that active at bringing high-paying companies up to this point in time.

A good college with no placement.

Placements: If you believe that you will secure a job placement after obtaining a B.Plan degree, let me dispel that notion. Not only in SPA but in all colleges offering this degree, there are no placements at all. You will have to search for a job on your own. Opting for higher studies in any IIT or a similar institution is always a better option.

Placements: Placements depends on the portfolio and mainly on the works that you've done already If you have skills on AutoCAD and other systamatic works you'll be considered on top of others. Students who have been good at academics and in overall performances can be noticed and can get good placement as per recommendations

MUD from SPA 2021 had the best years of life.

Placements: The percentage of students placed in our college is extremely low, as this course is not much in demand and therefore most of the students are willing to open their venture, which makes the placement percentage in our college low, i.e., 82%, according to data for our year.

Review of SPA Bhopal - School of Planning and Architecture.

Placements: The application process for jobs has to be carried out by the students alone. The training and placement cell is not that great with finding good job opportunities for the students. The graduates are hired as fresher architects. But I would say the SPA tag adds to having you stand out in the market.

Despite the placements, it is a good college.

Placements: This particular course did not have any placements, but it provides students with options for self-growth. But students can see themselves if they are fortunate enough to crack our respective states' assistant town planner jobs. Students can even apply for any real estate company for a consultant or surveyor.

Satisfied with the campus beauty and department as I have explored myself here.

Placements: The placements in SPA, Bhopal have started this year, after a lot of struggle dealt by authority of institute. The placements for Masters are okay for now, it is increasing, and there is hope for Bachelors. But as observed from previous records, it is better than other institutes.

Our college has really good infrastructure and facilities in Bhopal.

Placements: The college has a placement cell, but there are no college placements. The student has to get a job in a company for our own. It depends on your work and skill, and the remaining doesn't matter. Most of the companies visit the college and hire for internships.

Satisfactory Campus with an excellent environment and a good faculty.

Placements: Much cannot be said about the placements as the architecture graduates do not prefer the in-campus placements. Also, the average salary offered after graduating from Bachelors of Architecture is nearly Rs. 20,000 per month. The minimum is somewhere near to Rs. 15,000 per month and you can expect up to Rs. 30,000. For the internships, students are easily placed and can expect stipends starting from Rs. 5,000 per month to even Rs. 50,000 at times. Also, 10 to 15 students intern overseas here.

I am very satisfied with the faculty and the internships of the college.

Placements: Basically, there are no campus placements done in the field of planning and architecture, but internships are there in the college. We need to have a good experience in order to get a good job. But who knows what may happen, maybe the architecture companies will also do campus placements in the coming years. But if they do so, SPA-Bhopal will be on the top of their priorities as our college has had produced so many great architects.

One of the best colleges in the country and an institute of national importance.

Placements: Our college has a training and placement cell, though right now, it only provides recommendations. Most of our seniors are placed at good firms either through recommendations or the connections we develop throughout our academic period. The minimum salary offered was around Rs 30,000 in the beginning and the maximum is around Rs 50000 (again starting).

It is an institute of national importance (INI) by MHRD. Has an amazing academicals and extracurricular experience. Faculties are really intellectual and I made great friends here. The new campus is still under construction and will need few more years to be fully functional but the atmosphere inside is anything you can imagine in a typical architecture college. Graffiti everywhere, fun loving people with DSLRs roaming around and the pressure of submissions always keeps your awake during nights....

A nice institution which, despite all odds of the campus location being too far off and remotely accessible, has all the ingredients to enrich the student's life through some really nice, well-qualified and impeccable faculty. The Director and other higher authority staff take care of the issues of hostel, academics and food here very well.

There is already a scarcity of urban planners in our country (urban planners plan the future of a city and its growth pattern.
