Profile(History):
The Department of Architecture and Planning, MANIT Bhopal has been engaged in imparting Architecture education for more than 54 years. The B. Architecture degree program was established in the year 1963 with an intake of 15 students. The current intake in the B. Architecture programme is 80 students.

In tune with the reputation of being a pioneering institution in Central India, the Department of Architecture and Planning in 2007 introduced a Bachelor of Planning programme with an annual intake of 40 students. This programme aimed at meeting the variety of emerging needs of physical planning in the country.
Apart from these Undergraduate and Post-Graduation courses, more than 43 Doctoral degrees on various areas have been awarded by the Institute from the Department, whereas about 21 Doctoral researches are currently undergoing in the Department.
Nearly all the graduates from the Department either get a decent placement opportunity by both on/off campus placement procedures, or go on to pursue the higher studies in reputed national and international universities. Some of the alumni are also serving as academicians in various national and international level institutions.
