Abstract


Now a day, quality of education in any stream is considered as deteriorated, rather to say at every level. Education is skill development of ones in the respective field. Architectural education is whenever discussed, gets connection with profession, as it is ultimately the result of education provided. Efficient working in field either independently or in a corporate office or in partnership depends on the education provided/grasped during graduation period. Many parameters like infrastructure, student aptitude, teaching skills of the faculty etc. become factors to decide education level. Many ranking frameworks are working globally according to the need of community and social development. Currently the issue of quality of education is being discussed globally. Understanding of the course content by the teacher is utmost desired. Teaching should go hand to hand with both the theoretical and practical knowledge. The delivery of the topics should be in easy learning and long time retains way. The drop being felt in quality of education needs different models of teaching. Models of teaching can be used in any type of education, which are not being taught to the teachers of professional courses. Architectural education is one of the courses which needs immediate attention towards quality. We can say, either Architectural profession is reflection of quality of education in architecture or Architectural education is key to architecture Profession.
