Course Curriculum

2

  • Quite relevant but older technologies. Mostly dependent on self learning and interest. No industrial experience. Usually 3 classes per week, 1.5 hr each. 9 am - 8 pm window. 30 is the average count per class.

Admission Experience

  • The GPSI program and Graduate assistant posts are highly available and cover living expenses comfortably.

Faculty

4

  • Very good ratio 1:20. Always ready to connect even on off-hours.

Campus Life

6

  • Decent-sized recreation and sports centre. Round-the-year campus events, both indoor and outdoor. Underground traversal around campus for the heavy winter months.

Part Time Jobs

  • 13-18 usd. Internal job portal. 20 hours during classes and 40 hours during vacation. It's quite easy nowadays; almost everyone secures one. 30-50 students per semester.

Placement

2

  • Usually through referrals and a unified job platform “handshake”, ranging from 80-120k USD, with about 70% placement. But in recent times, no viable job opportunities.

Accommodation

Off Campus
4

  • WhatsApp group and ISO community. Basic housing in a shared room off campus is around 280 usd utilities included.

Exams

  • The IELTS minimum score is 7.5. I am not willing to disclose my score.

Fees

  • 30-35Lakhs INR
