I chose this course as I was really interested in cooking and wanted to take it as my career. The faculty-student ratio is 1:100. Basically the course consists of major four departments that are, Food Production, Food and Beverage Service, Housekeeping, and Front Office. You will also study some extra subjects such as Nutrition, Hotel Engineering, Accounts etc. The faculty working here are the best as compared to the rest of the colleges and their way of teaching is also unique such that any student will easily understand. The exams will be conducted after every semester that is after every six months.
