Their hotel is co-ed and has free Wi-Fi. The servings are small, but you can choose to eat them throughout the meal. Almost every sport is on our campus.

Overall, it is the best college for M.Sc.

Infrastructure: Nearly every facility for students was provided. Labs, hygienic classrooms, a library, Wi-Fi, laptops, and other teaching-related equipment were among the amenities offered by the college. The hostel was of good quality. The cost of the food at the canteen was a little higher than normal. The medical facilities were good. Our college’s sports facilities were excellent. At least once a week, we played kabaddi, basketball, hockey, cricket, and football.

Does the job, college better than any other private institute in my town.

Infrastructure: Our faculty was pretty good as it consisted of Wi-Fi, computer labs, projectors, a library as usual, and also a gymnasium. The quality was average as it was not that of a top class. We can't expect much from a government institute as it was a regular one except for the IITs. Highlights include a canteen that offers quite good quality food, basic first aids that were available, along with sports and games that were also organized timely in our institute.

Overall the best university for the M.Sc. in microbiology course.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure is comparable to that of the majority of centrally funded institutions. The digital library of the college is kept up to date. Hostels are also kept up nicely. The infrastructure of the campus is nearly identical to that of the majority of IITs and NITs. The campus network is the only area where it can fall behind other IITs and NITs. The institute occupies 150 acres in total. There is no Wi-Fi in classrooms. There is Wi-Fi only in the hostel.
