Highlights | What makes us different

The course we provide serves a specific job-oriented purpose. Hence we make sure that all our teaching aids and curricula are always on par with industry standards. Here are some ways we keep ourselves on the cutting edge:

  1. 01 Constantly-Upgraded Syllabi

    The industry we target is one of the most dynamic in today’s times. We meet this imperative to keep up-to-date by revising our syllabus with great frequency.

  2. 02 Action-Backed Teaching

    We include equal amounts of theoretical and practical teaching in our curriculum, acknowledging that practice makes perfect and that our students learn much more from a Do-It-Yourself approach.

  3. 03 Annual Internships

    Students are required to undergo On-Job Training thrice during the course – every summer vacation for all three years.

With a total of 6 highly specialized laboratories, we are able to give our students the practical expertise of a professional. We train our students to be as confident as competent. No wonder the demand for our course only gets higher.
