One of them is the lack of proper infrastructure and the second one is the lack of innovative teaching pedagogies.
We want to be a change-bringer in this space and to ensure this, we have invested heavily on our infrastructure, top teaching talent even from the Reputed National & International institutes, and other facilities so that the students can hone their skills in a conducive and charged learning environment. We also have a model making section where students are trained and deepen their perception, while also get hands-on practical training related to spatial relationships. Apart from normal academic sessions, we conduct regular workshops where we invite subject experts from Industry to interact with our students. Beyond academic facilities, we lay emphasis on and encourage participation in extracurricular activities, and this shows the care & concern for the holistic development of students at BGSSAP”.
