School of Engineering review.

I choose this course because I like ke to learn about electronics although my interest was more in its sector I didn't select for that course. The faculty-student ratio is nearly 1:15. Overall teaching methods are good but not all teachers. The exam was conducted strictly on time.

A good campus to chase your dream & Cherish your memories

I found a great interest in studying computers, software, web designing, etc. that's why I opt for this. A lot of faculties are there for different courses. The student ratio is comparatively lesser than in other colleges. So the campus crowd is very low. Faculty members are highly qualified in their courses. There are two series of the exam are conducted before the university exam. So that we can learn the syllabus thoroughly. And these exams are not so hard and not so easy.

A good government college with premium values

I took BTech Mechanical engineering at Kushal because of its high placement ratio offered here and due to good academic facilities last etc. There will be around 10 Faculties available for each class and they are very helpful in our academic performance too. The teaching method is mainly by lectures and using the help of smart classrooms and which enable the students to improve their practical approach towards their syllabus. There are two internals in every semester and end semester exams are conducted timely and the results are published accordingly. While comparing to another university the syllabus of society says a little bit of thought it can be easily passed if you work academically your best.

The SOE

The course curriculum is well-advanced. The syllabus is updated every 5 years. The reason why I chose this course is that I like it. Faculties are well educated. Most of the faculties are having doctorates. There is an internal exam twice for every sem and at last, there is a sem exam.

If you want a college with superb campus culture go for it.

Initially, after the entrance exam was can opt for Cucek campus of cusat or Soe campus of cusat. I opted for civil engineering at soe because I wanted to explore university life as soe is present at the headquarters of cusat itself. Apart from fire and safety, mechanical, marine engineering, and ship technology departments, all other branches have a good boy-to-girl ratio. Coming to teaching faculties there will be at least 7 faculties teaching different subjects with staff coordinators for each class. Almost all the teachers an academically excellent and have Ph.D. in their field. It's not about spoon-feeding, you can squeeze whatever you need to learn from the resource of the teachers. Also, they are very supportive of extracurricular activities too. The examinations are conducted timely in every semester and the syllabus is a little harder compared to other universities. But you can pass every exam if you work well on your academic side.

Because of my interest in the field of Electrical and Electronics Engineering. The student-faculty ratio is 1:48. The faculty should be qualified for both graduation and post-graduation in the selected field. There will be two internal exams and several unit tests.
