Overview
Mohamed Sathak Engineering College was one of the FIRST self-financing colleges in Tamil Nadu to start Bachelor of Architecture degree Programme in the year 1993. Mohamed Sathak School of Architecture - MSSA is approved by the Council of Architecture, New Delhi and AICTE and affiliated to Anna University, Chennai. A talented team of professional faculties with Ph.D, Post graduate qualifications in architecture and practicing architects prepare our students to face challenges of the industry with close coordination with the local chapter and center of the Indian Institute of Architects IIA. The students take part in National Association of Students of Architecture (NASA) and state level Zonal NASA every year. Students also attend architecture interschool competitions, carry out a minimum of two case – studies per semester in Real situations, undertake optional educational south India / north India tours and get exposed to the practical developments in the area of Modern / Vernacular Architecture.
In the final year students attend Practical training under a COA certified practicing architect for 6 months to understand the different stages in real life architectural projects in practice. They learn various aspects from initiation of project, development of concepts into schematic drawings, approval process, presentations and working drawings, involvement in office discussions and client meetings, integrating structural and service concerns, estimation and tendering processes, site supervision and coordination in the construction process. They also do a final thesis project for 6months which facilitates to develop their ability to complete and handle projects independently as a precursor to professional life.
