Mysore School of Architecture (MSA) started in the year 2014 by L.K.Memorial Charitable Trust, Mysore under the affiliation of the Visvesvaraya Technological University, Belgaum. MSA is the first stand-alone college of Architecture in Mysore City, with the flagship course of Bachelor of Architecture (B.Arch.), recognized by the Council of Architecture (COA), New Delhi.

MSA, opened a congenial atmosphere for the students interested in Architecture, to progress their students with a proper technical background and to enrich their knowledge in the field of Architecture around the world.

The students are introduced to various principles of art and architecture, with the help of modern day technology and hands on training in many up to date software programmes for the uncompromised understanding of architecture and design, to enter the world of Architects with art based technology.

In the light of the importance given to construction and real estate and not to forget the pro Green World of the future, there is a sudden spurt of heavy demand of New Architects worldwide. MSA has taken a challenging task, to train the students of Architecture with the state-of-the-art knowledge, as per global requirements, to pursue their dream projects. In the school, we groom the students to develop the ability to understand to problem in detail, to communicate effectively with the practical design solutions and to involve in Research & Development with multidisciplinary design avenues. The pedagogy is designed to encourage the students for innovative and creative ventures.

MSA welcomes all prospective students to join this ambitious school of architecture to plan their bright future and change the world into a better habitat for the tomorrow.

The eminent American architect Frank Lloyd Wright said “Architecture is a way of life”. We derive the concept of Design Education for our creative students from the above quotation at our new Mysore School of Architecture (MSA).

LIVE, LEARN, WORK and PLAY will be the focal points for promotion of quality architectural education at our institute.

Architecture has been playing an integral role in the lives of mankind since ancient times. The Parthenon of Greece, the Pantheon of Rome, the Pyramids of Egypt, the Hanging Gardens of Babylon, the Sancta Sophia of Istanbul, the Taj Mahal of India, etc., are marvels of Architecture inherited by us from old civilizations.

This history is still remembered by us and studied by our students to draw on the essence applied to the functions and spaces which shape and form our edifices today. The profession of Architecture is a blend of Arts and Technology contributing to life and growth in the urban and rural environment. The quest for super shelters in society invites a quality design demand to be achieved faster, higher, stronger. Hence, points move to make lines; lines move to make planes; planes move to make and enclose spaces – this is Architecture.

All this has inspired the L.K. Memorial Charitable Trust to set up the Mysore School of Architecture (MSA) with full-fledged infrastructure facilities and amenities. An astute, experienced and dedicated faculty has been invited to teach at Mysore School of Architecture.

OBJECTIVES & SCOPE OF THE SCHOOL

The B.Arch. course will address emerging market needs for ‘Hi- Design’ and give excellent job opportunities. Despite turmoil and turbulence on the political scenario, India’s urban as well as rural growth has gained a ‘Visible speed’. Indian Architects are already playing a major role to create beautiful eco-friendly buildings amidst self-sustainable urban planning. For all round development we need many more architects.

The 5-year programme (B.Arch.) trains the young professionals to form economically viable design concepts, which are acceptable –

• for constantly changing social and cultural aspirations;
• for maintaining a continuity while changes come in space and time;
• for respecting ecology and environment;
• for using new materials and innovative modern technology.
