Architectural Design
The introduction of the National Education Policy (NEP0 2020) has a completely new vision for Indian Education System. Honorable President, Ramnath Kovind stated that the NEP 2020 has a holistic vision of transforming the way children and youth will be educated to make learning a part of personal development while also serving the needs of society. It is bound to bring changes from Montessori to Post-doctoral programs. A major difference in the higher education system will be that the students will have the freedom to take up courses of the interest, which may or may not be related directly to their core subject. It would be based on major and minor credits for course works. It will mean intermingling of multiple disciplines in one campus. There would be a conglomerate of departments, instead of the currently dedicated colleges and universities. It will focus on a lot more on application-based learnings and hands-on experiences. The curriculum of architecture studies will also take its due twists and turns accordingly and thus it will be interesting to work on a project of similar idea. The students will also be of a mix of disciplines. This will call for an open campus with adequate accommodation facilities. The vertical studio is focused to work upon development for a campus which will offer architecture course along with its allied subjects. The site selected to this project is L. A. D. College Campus, Seminary Hill, Nagpur.
