Almost every professor uses audio-visual representation to better explain the concepts to the students where and when necessary. Professors are open to post lecture doubt session and at times they also assign case study problems to the students as a homework so that they remember the concepts taught on that day in an immersive way.

The current scenario is too good, the food is cheap, hygienic and healthy. Currently, a Full meal would cost you around 90-110 bucks and light snacks would cost you 25-70 bucks.  There is a lab for almost every specialization, For eg: the college has Plant tissue culture lab, Animal tissue culture lab, Molecular biology lab, Food biotechnology lab, etc. Apart from this the college also maintains a greenhouse and an Animal storage unit to keep model organisms.
