MIT is the pioneering institute that introduced technical education in Architecture to the Marathwada and Central Maharashtra regions.Established in 1984, the Department of Architecture at MIT is located in the historic city of Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar, Maharashtra. The college is affiliated with Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar Marathwada University, Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar.
The course curriculum is aligned with the educational standards set by the Council of Architecture, New Delhi. It integrates theoretical foundations with practical applications through a well-balanced syllabus featuring a wide range of application-based subjects.
The Department is known for delivering quality education supported by a dedicated team of highly qualified and experienced faculty members, as well as state-of-the-art infrastructure. Our innovative pedagogy aims to equip students with diverse expertise to meet the evolving demands of the profession, fostering responsible global citizens.
Comprehensive development of students is encouraged through an extensive range of curricular and co-curricular activities. A strong emphasis is placed on practical exposure, particularly through the Professional Training program conducted in the fourth year, where students gain real-world experience in professional offices. The final year culminates in a Dissertation, allowing students to synthesize and apply their cumulative learning.
Graduates from MIT’s Department of Architecture thrive in various avenues—many establish their own practices, while others contribute meaningfully in planning, design, and construction industries. A significant number also pursue higher education at prestigious institutions in India and abroad.

Dear students,
Architecture is one of the early disciplines of Art; which practices the planning, designing and construction of buildings or physical envelops – both indoor and outdoor. It has four dimensions (4D), i.e. Art, Culture, Science and Nature (Environment).
To me, Architecture is the space to live in. I am proud to state that, our institute (MIT) is the first institute, imparting architecture education in Marathwada as well as in Central Maharashtra region. Our main focus and approach is to develop, to carve out a student – with confidence, creative, innovative, eco-sensitive abilities and a human outlook.
As Architects, they need to take-up future challenges of sustainability, space scarcity, environmental concerns, technological adaptability and socio-economic issues.
We have strong and profound alumni; our department has produced and cultured hundreds of professional architects, who are spread in our country as well as in abroad and established themselves as legitimate professionals. I feel privileged to be associated with them.
We have dedicated and skillful faculty support, conducive infrastructure and a rational educational approach to meet out the present students’ needs with timely site visits, expert/professional talks-workshops, educational tours and involving students into co- curricular and extra – curricular activities. We are student centric institute and I am sure that, you will find worthy of it.
I wish to close my message with famous lines “ Architecture should speak of its time and place, but yearn for timelessness ” – by Ar. Frank Gehry
Thank you and good luck ..…
Mrs. Kuldeep Kaur Bhatia,
Head of Department
