To keep pace with the dynamically changing world we have designed our programs well to leverage the challenges posed by globalization, technology and changing values and attitudes. Our pedagogy is technology integrated to enhance the understanding of inter–linkage between theory and practice. This year we have implemented a new teaching approach which will improve the knowledge penetration in the students breaking their barriers. This new initiative targets the active involvement of students rather than mundane teaching practices, providing contextualized study of curriculum through diversified activities and competitions thereby making students expressive and adaptable. Moreover, we also have special effort driven for the students who holds their interest in giving competitive exam like GPAT.

A systematic development and overall confidence building through pre-placement activities like communication and personality development sessions, entrepreneur awareness camp, etc. is the uniqueness of our institution. These activities focuses on developing entrepreneurial skill, leadership quality, thinking skills, analytical frameworks, interpersonal skills, communication skills, communication and technical skills making students well equipped and ever ready to take the plunge into the highly competitive world. Throughout the year the college arranges guest talks, seminars, conferences and workshops to acquaint the students with the prevalent trends in industry and business. Internship and training programmes are arranged for the students to generate and address critical questions about the knowledge acquired in classrooms.
