Among the options, only IIT khargapur has architecture course.

The student should be conversant with ancient Indian architectural traditions.

Helpful and it would be better if more related questions. Thanks.

Good. Thanks.

India's oldest and largest Indian Institute of Technology (IIT), IIT Kharagpur will start "Vastu Shastra classes for architecture students from the next academic session i.e. starting from August 2017. It will be introduced to undergraduate students as part of courses on basic design and history of architecture. At the post-graduate level, concepts of social principles, 9-circuit placements or the nabagraha mandal, sacred altars and design semiotics and semantics will be taught to students. The purpose of this initiative is to explore India's ancient roots in Vastu Shastra. It is a part of the institute's Science and Heritage Initiative (SandHI) which will oversee the curriculum design.

Who started this institution?

Nice collection of questions.

When it is announced?
