Other: The teaching format of teachers are good enough. The departments of each faculty is very strict that means the student should be in discipline. Students should have to attend the class at least 75%. Harassments to girl is strictly prohibited and if someone caught in such activities he is definitely suspended for at least 20days. There is 2review exams within the semester which gifts 25marks. A thing good for students is the student friendly environment. As my college is situated near to railway station which also accommodate the student in learning about railway engineering. The facility of lab and library is very nice. There is nothing bad to say about my college. Yes one thing is the campus selection of students is very low.
