The experience was okay with the college.

Academics

I was studying in Textile designing (B.des) . There are excellent teachers but 1-2 teachers not good interms of behaviour and also they take out their rivalry by degrading grades. The quality of teaching is good. The teachers are knowledgeable no doubt in that. The curriculum could have been more updated though as the things are becoming better and vast. The teaching definitely makes a person job ready but if they can teach few more important softwares it would be very beneficial for students.
