Rajiv Gandhi Proudyogiki Vishwavidyalaya, Bhopal Diploma in Architecture and Interior Design
RATIONALE
The building industry is going through transition phase these days. The fast growth of the sector needs
to be supported by technological advancements as well as competent professionals. The advanced
CAD tools though facilitate carrying out drawing work at a comparatively fast pace in architectural
offices by using cloud or related techniques, but still design development related tasks are to be
handled manually. Due to large number of projects in hand architects tend to simultaneously work on
more than one project at a time, and in the process, prefer to assign a particular project, or part, to
junior architects and/or diploma pass outs to handle related aspects, including client meeting,
requirement analysis, site visits and prepare various alternatives adhering to applicable bye-laws.
This course aims to expose the students to the various related aspects of a building or interior project,
to develop necessary competence required for managing design activity right from conceptual design
to final design and execution stage.
The students will be required to apply the knowledge gained during the entire course, in the project
work which will develop self-confidence to handle a chosen task from investigation up to finding and
presenting the solution. In the process the student will also learn to explore and extract relevant data
through various sources including internet and case studies and, use the same in working out the
appropriate solution.

RATIONALE
Changing environmental conditions like global warming, rising pollution levels, and tsunamis etc.,
have compelled humans to thinks in the direction of mitigating the causes of such phenomenon.
Building industry also has a key role in this area along with industries, as around 40% of the energy is
consumed in their operation and maintenance of environmental conditions.
This course is aimed to introduce the concepts of energy efficient building design technology to the
diploma students so that the same can be incorporated into design stage. The various codes and green
rating systems are also included to create awareness among the students about the efforts being made
by Government and private sector to reduce adverse effects of development projects.
The students will be exposed to prevailing systems and techniques through case studies and site visits
to appreciate the difference between conventional approach and energy efficient approaches of
building design and execution.
