INTRODUCTION

Architecture & EPC Services for Architecture College (B.Arch/ M.Arch/ M.Plan) Campuses

Architecture school design is uniquely self-referential, the Council of Architecture’s Minimum Standards prescribe a specific design-studio area per student, and that single figure drives the entire building’s footprint. As a practising architecture firm ourselves (EROCON), EROCON designs B.Arch, M.Arch and M.Plan campuses across India to COA’s current benchmark and library/staff-ratio requirements.

 

We bring direct professional understanding of what COA inspection panels look for, and EROCON builds to that same specification for studio areas, jury halls and workshop services delivered exactly as designed.

India has around 362 Council of Architecture-recognised institutions offering B.Arch, M.Arch and M.Plan programmes, making it one of the largest architectural education networks in the world.

Services for Architecture College (B.Arch/M.Arch/M.Plan) Campuses

Regulatory Framework We Design To

Council of Architecture (COA Minimum Standards of Architectural Education), AICTE and UGC. COA prescribes a minimum design-studio area per student typically referenced around 4 sqm/student, as the largest compliance driver, plus mandatory library holdings and staff-student ratios; we confirm current COA Minimum Standards before finalising studio areas.

Common Questions About Architecture & Planning Design

What’s the single biggest compliance driver for an architecture school?

The Council of Architecture’s minimum design-studio area per student, commonly referenced around 4 sqm/student, the largest area line item in the entire school and the most common cause of non-compliance when under-sized.

 

Does an architecture school need a GIS lab?

Only where M.Plan is offered alongside B.Arch, in that case a dedicated GIS & Urban Planning Lab with ArcGIS/QGIS licences is expected.

 

What space anchors studio-based pedagogy?

The Jury/Exhibition Hall with movable panels and a presentation dais, it’s where studio crits and reviews happen, and typically functions as a signature space on campus tours.
