Overall, It is the best university for the M.A. in Economics course.

Faculty: All teachers are very helpful, knowledgeable, motivated, and supportive. Outside of classes, they also help students with their extracurricular activities. They also tend to focus on technical meetings. It is a bit difficult to crack the semester exams. The cutoff percentage for students is 70%.

The growth place of my life.

Faculty: All the teachers were highly helpful, knowledgeable, motivating and supportive. Beyond academics, they also support the students in their extracurricular activities. They also focus on industrial-oriented sessions often. And also, it is a little bit tougher to crack the semester examinations.

Our college provides new educational experiences.

Faculty: All faculty members in our college are highly educated and experienced abroad. They hold Ph.D. in their subjects. The course curriculum is similar to foreign countries. Some professors conduct exams and others give research paper assignments. So students have to write academic research papers and submit them as final assignments. Professors help all students to study.

It provides good infrastructure, facilities, and excellent faculty members.

Faculty: Faculty members are great. Apart from the maths department, all the other departments I have interacted with are very intelligent and helpful. The curriculum is relevant of what is required of an economist when one enters the corporate world. A lot of guest speaker series. Exams are hard but most of the students pass.

Our college has brilliant teachers to impart education, along with top-notch facilities.

Faculty: Professors are knowledgeable, helpful and accommodating. Their empathy is commendable. The teaching quality is brilliant. However, I suspect it would be even better offline. The course curriculum is highly relevant, and it helps students to find their areas of interest and passion, which they may pursue in their undergraduate studies.

It has great curriculum and faculty, and holistic approach to education.

Faculty: The overall teaching quality, for my course at least, is great. All the professors are highly qualified and carry PhDs from the best universities across the world. Not only do they have a very good grasp of their subject matter, but also their methods of teaching are creative and innovative. The usage of different mediums besides textbooks, such as films, songs, memes, YouTube videos, etc., are highly encouraged.

Absolutely satisfied with everything on the campus.

Faculty: Faculty members are the best part of Ashoka. The teaching method is entirely discussion based which makes the class more like a discussion among friends rather than an actual class. The professors hold office hours, and they're willing to help anytime which makes things easier for students.

Be it PhDs from the Ivies or chief economic advisors of the world bank. The curriculum is extremely rigorous and knowledgeable.
