School of Architecture and Design, K.R. Mangalam University, aims to give participants a chance to present their research locally and globally. This National Conference is in collaboration with Council of Architecture (Training and Research Centre), Bhopal, along with Piloo Mody College of Architecture, Cuttack, and SRM Institute of Science and Technology, Chennai, being the intellectual partners. Collaboration across organizational and cultural boundaries extends the possibilities of discovery. National collaboration enables researchers to access additional, often specific, expertise, gain new perspectives on research and build relationships with others in the field, which for early-stage researchers can be key to career development. The major objective of the conference is to promote research in the field of Architecture and Planning and to relate professional practice with academics through research. Along with this, it will offer a platform across the globe to bring academicians, professionals and students of architecture together.
