College Infrastructure

24*7 Wi-Fi service is available in the college. The labs are properly structured. The classrooms have Wi-Fi accessibility. The library is open till 12 in the night, and during the exams, it is open 24*7. The facilities are also good. The quality of food is pretty good but south Indians have to adjust with North Indian food.
