Course Curriculum Overview

4.5

The course covers various topics which are on demand and cover industry relevant skills such as data science, cloud computing, IoT, machine learning, cryptography, operating systems, database management systems and more, This made me choose this course. The faculty:student ratio is 3:10. The faculty members are exceptional at teaching and assisting students at all times, they have both research and industry experience in various domains of computer science and engineering. Term exams depend on the semester the student is in, generally the mid-term examinations are conducted every one or two months in a semesterm, the grading method followed is relative grading hence it is difficult to pass.

Fees and Financial Aid

Being a college of PPP model, the fee for this institute is relatively high compared to other national institutes but it is reasonable compared to the curriculum and facilities it offers. No financial assistance is provided by the institute directly. Currrently the institue offers 100% campus placements, but it also depends on the student's efforts for him to get a job.
