The classrooms are equipped with an array of hi-tech equipment which enables the competent teachers to conduct classes in such a manner that the students can make use of all the available resources. In this very special learning environment, LCD projectors, video players [for language labs] are available. All these facilities enable the teachers to teach in a unique and innovative manner which makes the students feel involved in the teaching - learning process and improves the pace and quality of learning. Further, the students are exercised to prove their skills by allowing them to give presentations during the class work. To make the students to have better access of all the concepts they have to present, the faculty has provided a date-wise schedule of the topics. With a view to arousing an interest in the students towards comprehension of processes, situations, developing rational thinking and having an open discussion amongst themselves, we choose some videos which help the students understand the process/situation. Therefore the students watch them enthusiastically and participate actively in the ensuing discussion.
