My life as a public administration student at CUK.

Placements: The course offers great scope in terms of administration. The total strength is 28 members, who were admitted through the CUET exam. The exam consists of 100 questions, with 75 percent coming from the study subject and 25 percent from the general area and GC.

Infrastructure: The class is well-constructed with good infrastructure, Wi-Fi, and a library. There are 4 to 5 hostels for both girls and boys. The hostels have facilities like hot water, Wi-Fi, common rooms to study in, etc. The hostel food is also acceptable to both North and South Indians.

Faculty: The quality of teaching is excellent, with faculty members even working at UPSC. The course curriculum is very relevant, which is apt for my future journey as an administrator. The exams are conducted by the department itself, and it all takes place within the university.

Other: The course was selected by me because it has great scope abroad, and since I can study at a central university.
