As a student, I feel that a lot of importance is given to practicals and research which is a very good thing as it gives us a hint of how pursuing PhD would be like. The best thing is that the faculty promote smart work and make us more self-dependent and expose us to different aspects of the field through assignments. The faculty are reputed and have immense knowledge to pass forward and moreover very open to talk to for any queries. My experience overall has taught me many things that have changed me for the better, to help me in the long run.
