College Infrastructure and Hostel Facilities

3

There are two hostels offered by college each for Boys and Girls. All the rooms have pre-equipped basic requirements for two students including cot, Table, Chair, Shelves, Fans, Bathroom etc. It is also connected to our LAN. Every storey of the hostel building is under CCTV Survilliance thus prevents any kind of ragging in hostels. Security gaurds are on duty every day and night. The information about Hostel fees can be queried to college office. 

Though the college have a canteen which provide good food but many hostelite students prefer to have it outside the college as they get bored to have it everyday. But for the students like me who gets a very few moment to have the food of college canteen, always appreciate the environment over there. The taste of food and the cleanliness is well maintained there. They also provide us with fast food and cokes too. The college Hostel fees includes the cost of food from Canteen.

I like the environment of classroom very much. The desks and chairs are well designed taking good care of the postures of the students. All the classrooms have Internet connections, a Computer, a Projector, an OHP and a geen-board. Teachers make the session lively using the presentation or by the traditional chalk-board methods. Sometimes the sessions are conducted by the teachers and sometimes by the students too.

Talking about the Labs of our college. It really feels like you are working in a company for some projects while doing assignments in labs. All the computers in the labs are all equipped with latest softwares. The Operating system mainly used for teaching purpose, is Linux (Fedora).

The libraries are full of knowledgeable books both for reference and research purposes. There is a big reading hall for the students to study. It also has a Digital Libraray for the students to research. It has a Group study room for students who can discuss their concepts and clear their doubts with the help of teachers.

The whole campus is well connected through wired as well as wireless networks. Students are able to have access to internet with maximum speed of 30Mbps. The coverage of Wi-Fi is not only restricted to class rooms but also extends to all the areas including library, auditorium, cafeteria, and hostels. Eventually, it enables PICT to switch over to innovative and recent teaching and learning methodologies.

Academics and Faculty

Class Timings are excellent as :

  • It runs two shifts : 1. from 8:30am and 2. from 10:00am.
  • Everyday two hours of practical sessions.
  • The subjects are arranged well in our time-table.

Teachers and guides are well supportive for project developments. They are well groomed teachers and try to make industry-ready students. The teachings are so good that there might not be needed for any extra efforts during examinations. The teachers suggests good reference books to prepare for the subjects. I personally like the way and methods of teaching in my college.

For assignments we are guided by good faculty memebers in the labs. It is convinient for the teachers and also for the students to complete any assignment. As per the University rules, we strictly follow the count of students in one batch i.e., 20.

  • Though there is no scholarship available while admissions but yes, there are no. of other scholarships available like EBC, SC/ST, PWD do have their scholarships. The office person are really hardworking to have the ends meet for every students. They are very co-operative.
