We have a partition museum in our college that helps us to understand the history.
Placements: Placements of the college had a good record. There was placement percentage of above 95%. Also, placement training was often given to the students. It helped students to keep themselves updated and adapt to the kind of interviews from the placement-perspective. The average placement package was 10 LPA.
Infrastructure: There were no sports in AUD. There were also online and offline libraries in AUD which helped us a lot in our dissertation period.
Faculty: Faculty members were approachable, friendly, and ready to help all students in their respective fields about curriculum and career. Exams were conducted and made it difficult for students to involve themselves in other extra-curricular activities that might highly benefit their careers. Exams were easy to clear. The course curriculum was mostly relevant despite which some courses, especially labs were not in the current scenario.
Other: University at City Fest, Canadian Food Fest, and many workshops happen in AUD, dissertation, theatre, dance, music, design, art, writing, and many more.

There is no sports in AUD. There is also an online and offline library in AUD, which helps us a lot during our dissertation period.
Faculty: The exam system is pretty standard. There are 2 exams: mid-sem and end-sem. The overall structure is decided by the professor, and exams are mostly subjective, although this varies by course. You need to complete certain credits during your course, and for that, you can opt for your courses. There are certain sections.
