Remarks :
The only thing which you should know before taking admission here is that you need to maintain a 75% attendance, failing which you would be debarred to give that exam. It helps as you spend more time in the classes and hence get knowledge rather than wasting time in bunking classes. The university follows a strict "no-ragging" policy and the seniors here are more as a friend rather than seniors The management can be slow at times. You have to adjust with it.

Although no place placements have taken place till date as our department is only two years old, but the placement looks secure.
