The university is known for its experienced faculty, particularly in the science departments, and maintains an improving faculty-to-student ratio from 100:1 in the first year to 40:1 in later years. Tuition fees are affordable due to government funding, with annual costs such as INR 1,110 for MBA, INR 1,225 for BCA, INR 1,200 for B.Sc, and INR 37,000 for B.A+L.L.B.
