Faculty: Teachers in our college are helpful and qualified. They live on the campus. Along with teaching, they work for government projects. They share their experience with us as city boys do not know more about rural areas, so they explain to us very well.

Summer internship and experiences of our alumni along with course curriculum make students industry-ready. Many faculty members are from IIM Ahmedabad and IRMA Anand to teach us.
Other: I have chosen this course because I am an agriculture graduate, so I wanted to do MBA in agriculture business management. I can work in a rural area and also in urban areas with this course.
