There is regular classes without or with very few offs, but most of the subjects are theoretical and less practical driven. We almost don't get placements and have to opt for higher studies for which it's a well known platform for sure. In our 4th and final year we however get exposure to outside world and is more practical oriented. We have 15 libraries around the campus with smart technologies. We have entire Practical course sometimes and have to grow grains like farmers with secures us grades.
