Accommodation in the hostel was based on a first-come, first-served basis. There were separate hostels for both boys and girls. The hostel provides many facilities, like a free Internet facility, 24-hour water supply, hot water facility, refrigerator, washing machines, dispensary, etc. The hostel appoints a warden who takes care of all the students and looks over all the amenities.
Faculty: I did my graduation in economics and I was also interested in pursuing a masters in it for teaching as a career, which is why I chose this course. The student ratio is 15:1. The faculty is really good and experienced here. They are helpful and kind, and they listen to understand their student's problems. Even they help in personal matters if facing issues. The professors, associate professors, and assistant professors are all very experienced and knowledgeable. Their teaching method is flexible depending on the way in which the students understand like using whiteboards, discussions, examples, interactive methods, critical thinking, etc. The term exams happen timely, as the date sheet is designed around 20–30 days in advance and generally, three papers are set up and one is selected for the examination. It is not difficult to pass the examination if students are attentive in their classes. Class Size: 75 Course Fee: INR 109000 per year.
