Course Curriculum Overview
The course Curriculum provides a good understanding of the subject at a moderate level with good clarity. If the student wants to appear for any competitive exam like GATE, he/she had to self-study a little bit more for the advanced part and score decent grades. The concept of Interactive learning is also introduced in our university, where it's the students who have to interact with themselves, perform group discussion, give their answers and views to teachers and the whole class. Teachers often give tasks to students to explain certain topics of the subject to gain a better understanding and build confidence.

Admission
I chose this college due to its affordability as compared to the facilities and culture it provides. Also, I liked the environment, the positive vibes, and great well-built infrastructure. Yes, being a JEE aspirant, I got rejections from some great colleges, but I also rejected some government, private colleges of many cities like Pune, Indore, Bhopal, etc and selected Galgotias University as my choice. Admission process is both through JEE and merit-based. After applying, the candidate can expect the offer letter in 15 days, and proceed further by paying the admission fees of 25k before the deadline and can confirm the admission.
Faculty
Faculty to student ratio is approx 1:25. Faculty members are really very engaging, experienced, calm, and friendly. Faculties always try to provide opportunities and, network to their students. I had a faculty of DSA in Java, whose behaviour, teaching style, and nature were very nice; his connection with me was very supportive and meaningful. University conducts two types of exams per semester: Mid Term Exam, End Term Exam with Practicals (Internal Assessment) The curriculum is not that difficult. College classes with a little bit of self-study are sufficient to get a good Score.
Night Life
Galgotias University is located on a highway, so there are no hangouts nearby it. Yes, inside the university, there is a cafeteria open 24 hrs. Also, students of the hostel can access the playground, borrow sports equipment with their ID cards and library till 8 pm.
