Since decades Indian Architecture Education has been in a very shoddy state. The way content is taught and the content that is taught, both requires major revamp. The practical exposure in the long duration of five years is much less. Most of the time students are busy doing undesirable and monotonous submissions which are hand drafted and consumes hours, instead of developing a sense of intellect and curiosity. The declining quality of buildings and poor performance of architects is being experienced in every part of the country. Content analysis strategy was adopted to review the literature which indicates- outdated and irrelevant theory, limited industrial exposure, weak institutional framework, and below-average standards of faculty and substandard teaching may be some of the many reasons to blame for along with the role Council of Architecture plays for this state. The question here is why did this dire situation arise and what reforms are required to reverse this discouraging state of education? Findings reveal that the huge rise in number of architecture school is the root cause of the crises we are facing today. “Dearth of faculty is a crisis; enormous number of students is a crisis.
