Course Curriculum Overview
Because I had a deep interest in Computer Science and coding The faculty-to-student ratio is decent. There are about 40 faculty for 100 students The faculty is very highly educated and have their Ph. D from esteemed institutes. Exams were very frequent. Each semester consists of two sessionals, MST and EST. It can get really hectic. Passing is not that tough if you study without any piling up.
