College Infrastructure

Love the fact that the spaces in our studios are very mobile, can be changed as per course requirements. Very open, students gets ample working area for individual projects as well and personalisation of your space is permitted which makes it more student friendly. It's a cohesive environment and the labs too are well equipped with trained professionals to guide the students. Hostel rooms are also well maintained as per government standards and the mess food is also pretty decent.
