Remarks :
It has the most beautiful and lush green campus. It has a pretty decent infrastructure and now it’s growing rapidly. There were few bad incidents regarding medical negligence, water shortage and disputes between the students in the past which are quite common in most the engineering colleges but as of the situations have improved a lot and right now its one of the most disciplined colleges
Course Curriculum Overview :
The course curriculum is divided into two parts and 8 semesters 1) Curriculum for the first year(1-2 semesters ): Freshman year you are introduced to varies basic engineering courses irrespective of your selected branch. 2) curriculum for the next three years(2nd 3rd & 4th)(3-8 semesters): From sophomore year to end of the final year, your curriculum is simply based on your chosen engineering branch with laboratory experiments. each semester lasts up to 4-5 months and has a qualifying exam for the next at the end of each semester, all the semester's needs are qualified in terms of laboratory experiments, viva, subject test through writing. Additionally first two semesters have sports tests too (depends on the sport one choose in the first semester which is mandatory) failing to qualify in any of the subjects in written tests will result in supplementary exams (which have to be given in the following semester) and failing to qualify even in those results in backlogs and to be cleared in the following academic year. Failing to qualify sports test in the first academic year(1-2 semesters) results in the year back, meaning you have to retake your first year. In short, the academic curriculum is bit old and more of research-oriented rather than being relevant to the present day
