Life in PAU

Faculty:

I dont know exactly about the faculty to student ratio but it's very good, there are ample of teachers to whom u can ask yours doubts plus every 10 students are given a advisor teacher during thier course who guide students throught the degree program. Per semester 4 exams are conducted one after month hourly exams , then come the mid term, exams, then the practicals, then the final semester examination every semester.. The exam level are easy to moderate.

well the interaction with the faculty is good. As all the faculty treat us as their children. the college infrastructure is good.
well weekly advisory meeting are conducted which help in improving the overall academic performance and if we are feeling any problem we would share it with our advisor. As the class becomes yours family with the passage of time.

the ratio of faculty by students is 1:4 well tge relationship between students and faculty is as family. as they help in solving the problems. To approach faculty we just need to konw they room number. its as simple as we think. well it's difficult to say about the faculty i don't like because all faculty treat us as there child. so the just think good about us. well exams are conducted 3 time in whole semester. As first exams are of 10 marks( taken as 20 or 30 marks) afterward weightage is considered. Known as ( Early exam) the second are (Mid term exams ) of 40 marks and last (End term) of 70 marks but i forgot to tell u about the practical exams. well obtaing approx 5.5 marks are min requirement for passing the exam.

My Experience in PAU : the good & the bad

Practical exposure is given to the students at max

Faculty is 400-500 but teaching staff is less , the reasearch scientists and assistant professors teach the courses. Exams : First Hourly - 10 Marks ( within 30 days of the beginning of semester ) Mid Term - 20-25 Marks Practical+Assignment - 30+5 Final exam - 70 marks ( weightage - 35 ) Exams are from the things taught in the semester only , can be easily passed with some hardwork.

COAET: PaAU

The cooperative nature of the faculty and staff.

The faculty to student ratio for our batch was excellent, there was never shortage of teachers, as well as the courses as well. Per semester we had to study 8-9 courses. The courses were indeed intresting and worth the time, but the thing is due to high number of courses, the importance and time which had to give to subjects, was not given. The faculties are highly supportive of our college.
