Academics & Faculty : Schedule,yeah it is hectic if you follow it.We have our schedule from 9 to 5.Sometimes,its continuous without any break,but normally we get 1 hr. break in between.Assignments,Internal tests,Attendance actually influence your internal marks a lot.The whole thing is based on these. Usually teachers opt their own classy method of teaching on their own. You just need a pen and notebook to take the notes because they are very useful as per internal tests.No books are actually required for class but for externals you will need one. And as our college opt semester system then you don't need to buy new book every time.You can have second hand books from seniors.Teachers are normally available in college till 5.So, you can reach them and they can help you with your issues.

Academics & Faculty : The courses offered in IGDTUW(formerly Indira Gandhi Institute of Technology) are B.Tech(in Comp. Sc,Electronics and communication, Info Tech and Mechanical and Automation), M.Tech, MCA and Ph.D. The college starts at 9 in the morning till 5 though most of the students stay in the college till 7 because of projects and all. Not all but yeah about 60% of the books can ne issued from the library book bank.Not to worry about the rest 40% books because there is a second hand book market NAYI SADAK which is a 20 min walk from the college or why walk you can always take the metro which is a 4 min walk from the college.There you can get books for a very good price and can even return them at 50%. The labs are open till 5 from monday to saturday and the assistants are very helpful.Faculties are all good..most of them possessing doctorates from reputed institutes. Since it's a womens university most of the faculty members are female.
