The syllabus is relatively difficult and the college is deemed and autonomous. The lectures will be the same people who creates question papers.

Campus Life
Campus life is better in the sense of quality of living and infrastructure. Social life inside campus is very less because of the less number of students. Everyone should reside inside the campus. Gender ratio is really less. Boy:girl will be around 1:12. Labs are really high quality since the college curriculum focuses on the technical part of engineering. Workshops provided by the aerospace club are really interesting. The campus has a strict no politics policy.
Hostel Facilities
Everyone should stay inside campus hostels. The hostel rooms and bathourooms are really clean. The hostel seats are never full since everyone stays in hostel and so there are enough room for all. The rentals are free under scholarship.
