The agreement was signed in the presence of AU Vice-Chancellor G.P. Raja Sekhar and BAC President Mahesh Daas. It provides for dual-degree programmes, postgraduate admissions and joint academic initiatives in architecture, interior architecture, landscape architecture and design studies.

The two institutions will also collaborate in urban design, construction robotics and real estate development, besides facilitating faculty exchanges. They will work towards developing educational frameworks to address environmental and technological challenges.
