About Us
The C.A.R.E. (Centre for Applied Research and Education) School of Architecture intends to serve as a platform, connecting academia and industry. We believe that the practice of Architecture about the process of understanding, above aesthetics and visually pleasing edifices. The discernment is about ‘The Environment and the People’. School takes a wholistic and interdisciplinary approach to education. We aim to cultivate creative thinking capabilities with scientific temper, contextual sensitivity, strong social connect and empathy. Our campus is designed by the renowned Architect Sanjay Mohe. The backdrop proves to be an excellent setting to learn architecture. The healthy faculty development programme at C.A.R.E, assists us to sustain a continuous dialogue towards an effective curriculum. Besides, we can boast an experienced advisory committee, with eminent practicing architects and academicians.
