Hey Putala Harika,

The job opportunities of Architecture are excellent!

Architecture is part of the 2nd largest industry in India i.e., Construction Industry next to Agriculture. It is usually initiated by Developers, Builders, Corporates etc & the Architect is the Main Consultant who is involved in all aspects of the Project from scratch to execution.

In capacity of an Architect, a person has several career opportunities depending on expertise or area of specialization e.g.,  1.

1. Urban Planner : Designing & Master Planning of Towns or large scale areas.

2. Building Designer: Planning of Buildings e.g., Bungalows, Apartments, Malls, Hospitals, Hotels etc.

3. Interior Designer: Interior Designing of various spaces

4. Landscape Designer: Designing of landscapes

5. Elevation Designer: Designing of Building Exteriors

6. Liasaoning Consultant: Municipal Approvals

7. Arbitrator: Lawyer of Judge for technical cases.

8. Valuer: Property valuation

9. 3d Visualizer

10. Project Management Consultant: Execution of Projects

11. Environmental/Sustainable Design Consultant

12. Surveyor

13. Documentator

14. Art/Set Designer

These are just a few careers options for an Architect from amongst more than 100. Some of the above fields do not require the Architect to have creative or aesthetic sense though a general understanding & aptitude is important for communication purpose.

The average starting salary of a Fresh Graduate Architect usually ranges from Rs. 8000/- to Rs. 20,000/- INR per month in India depending of the Architect's Skills & the Employer Organization. With experience of more than 10 years, the salary per month could be more than 1 Lakh per month depending on type of experience & delivering capapilities of the Architect. If Practising independently, the fees of the Architect is 5 % of the Total Project Cost depending on scope of work for an Architectural project as per Council of Architecture norms.

I would suggest you join a field that is your area of interest or expertise which would be easier for you to sustain for a lifetime.

The job opportunities of CSE are also high in India,

Being a computer engineer only won't get you much until you did it well. People these days only have  a degree, they are not equipped with the knowledge that is imparted by the degree.


Being a good computer engineer can get you a numerous job options. Lets start with the qualification that you have :

  • Software developer
  • Software tester
  • Network administrator
  • Database administrator
  • Database designer
  • Database operator
  • Website designer
  • Website developer
  • Teacher
  • Mobile application developer
  • Robotics expert
  • Software analyst
  • Mobile expert
  • Software support analyst
  • Startup

All the best!

Hey,
Both are completely different streams. B.Tech CSE is a four-year engineering degree course and B.Arch is a five-year architecture degree course.
If you want to choose between these two, just go with your interest and passion.

So, choose on the basis of your interest.
Thank you!
