How is the faculty at IMT Ghaziabad?

The faculty to student ratio was approx 40:1. The faculty was generally engaged in the course well and provided insights whenever required. We had some notable alumni like Singhvi sir who was well known and pushed students to the absolute maximum

Computer Science Engineering as is is a challenging degree to undertake. The course taught in our college can be ranked at challenging: It is not easy, But with consistent efforts, Scoring well is not a hurdle. The teaching is good but it is the student's responsibility to revise and clarify doubts as needed with the faculty. Some students do fail but it is largely attributed to their irregularity and lack of seriousness. Computer Science Engineering is a staple in our society as of today, The world needs more engineers and proficient programmers to develop software to tackle the never ending stream of problems arising everyday. The course focuses on an individual's problem solving skills and analytical thinking and teaches them to apply these solutions practically by writing clean and efficient code. However, Computer Science Engineering is a field where one cannot afford to stay complacent and not current with the latest trends, A programmer must always constantly study and update their knowledge and skill base to remain employable in this field. There are always new technologies and languages to learn which translates to a lifetime of learning and application of knowledge, This aspect of CSE may not be appealing to a vast demographic of students. Per semester, There are 2 Mid Term Examinations and one Final examination. Midterms form the internal marks scored by the student(40) and externals account for the remaining 60 marks. In a year, 6 examinations are conducted 4 Mid terms and 2 Final exams for 2 semesters. In a day, There are a total of 7 classes including labs on certain days. Each class is 50 minutes long and lab classes are grouped as 3 totaling to 150 minutes. Students get a 10-15 minute break after the first two classes and a 40 minute break after the next 2 classes. Classes commence at 09:50AM and conclude at 15:50PM after which students go home. Faculty use a wide range of teaching methods including Whiteboards, Projectors, Smart Screens and computers. This ensures that the students receive a mode of teaching which is not mundane and boring but engaging and interesting. Hands on activities help reinforce concepts much better than theoretical teaching only. I cannot take names of faculty, However, a faculty member that I admire is someone who is very cheerful yet disciplined, Open and friendly yet strict and understanding and helpful towards the student even outside college. The college follows a mandatory 75% attendance rule per semester. If a student is found to have attendance between 65-75%, They are eligible to pay a condonation fee and appear for final exams. Any lower than 65% without a valid reason may become grounds for detainment.

Curriculum is not that hard. But many students get back in the 1st year due to negligence. You get a deeper understanding of the subject but industry exposure is not there. In each semester there are two class tests and one main semester exams. Classes are scheduled from 10 am -5 pm with a break between 1:30- 2:30 pm. About 4 to 8 classes are held in one day. Faculties teach in a descriptive manner and also give several assignments after the class. Faculties like Dr. Vijay Tewari, Dr. Chhaya Singh, Dr. Anurag Shukla are some of the best faculties in here who teach the subjects with one on one interaction with the students. Attendance of 75% is compulsory in each subject to sit in semester exams. Students who don't maintain 75% Attendance are debarred from the exams.

The course curriculum is quite easy, not so difficult. It was prescribed by scert itself. Yes students do fail in the exams. Good aspects of this course are you gain knowledge, skills, confidence to speak, participate in various activities and social interaction too. It also provide hand on experience by giving 30-35 days training in school. The bas aspect is, it is also based on the the old school education system to give exams which I personally don't like and u have to submit various files of all subjects. Although it is a good practise to gain the experience but it is somewhat burdensome. There are 3 exams conducted in a year- 2 internals and 1 term end with 10 subjects each. 8 classes take place usually in a day with 45-50 minutes each. As such no free time is given except lunch break which is of 20-25 minutes. Every teacher has its own methodology to teach. Some use lecture method, some uses discussion method and some uses demonstration method according to the topic and subject. I personally admire all the faculties as they do work wholeheartedly to teach us. All the teachers are best according to my opinion. Yes there is a mandatory attendance rule. You have to maintain atleast 75 percent attendance in a year to qualify for the exams. If you don't fulfill the criteria, then you have to come to colleges in preparatory leaves to complete the attendance. Yes I have seen students coming to college because of short of attendance. And regularly or monthly, students were given short of attendance forms to get it signed by parents and they have to secure the 75 percent criteria of attendance.

The course curriculum is very well-structured. Some students fail their exams. The good aspect of the course is that it covers all the important topics, and the bad aspect is that you need 80% attendance, or else you will have to face grade loss. In the first Trimester, we have 7 exams. We usually have 3 classes in a day, and the timings of the classes are between 9 am and 4:45 pm. Post this time, students usually have free time to do other stuff. But they have to do their club/committee/council work as well as their APO work as well. Teachers usually use PPTs to teach. Vivek Jadav is one of the best faculties as he is willing to schedule extra sessions for the students and also gives great marks in class assignments. You need to maintain 80% attendance, failing to do this will result in grade loss.
