This integrated approach ensures better alignment between subject knowledge and pedagogical skills.

Many graduates also work in educational technology companies and online learning platforms.

There is no entrance exam requirement for direct admission; merit is based on Class 12 performance. However, if you have JEE Main or CUET-UG scores, you can apply through respective counseling processes.
