MIDAS Builds Golden Ideas says...DC

MARG INSTITUTE OF DESIGN AND ARCHITECTURE SWARNABHOOMI, affiliated to Anna University is a unique institution to think differently in "Architecture". Packed with intellectual programs, MIDAS makes a student to think logically at the very beginning of the course. The strength of MIDAS is the "Foundation Course" in the 1st and 2nd Semester which is uniquely formulated to instigate "Thinking". We want to make "Architects" and only "Architects" and we want them to be strong in History, Theory and Criticism.
