Since its inception, the School has acknowledged the influence of the industry in developing a holistic academic curriculum. To keep the students up to date with the professional advancements and ideologies of their contemporaries, various guest lectures are organized under the Guest Lecture Series and the Industry Lecture Series, wherein eminent practitioners are invited from architecture, research and allied fields to provide an alternate and thought provoking facet of the subjects explored as a part of the curriculum. This encourages the students to develop critical thinking and explore and redefine paradigms in architecture.
