Sushant University M.Tech Review By Honey Vivian

Sushant or the Ansal University, you can call it by any of the names as many people still know it by that name. Many of my previous batch mates went for MBA or other Colleges but being an average student and not being able to clear the entrances, the only choice I had was to look for the best Colleges that accept students without entrance scores. Sushant University took the graduation score into consideration and luckily, I made progress in the final year and that helped me get admission here without any fuss. So, Sushant University was a nice package, as the quality of education was as good as any NITs or IITs. Also, the placements were equally good and I didn’t have to tinker with that because that was the main reason for me joining Sushant University.

The M. Tech course is a different game because during B. Tech, we had ample time for other things but while pursuing M. Tech, I hardly had a choice. If we are done with the classes, we have to rush for practicals and then occasional seminars, and industrial tours. So, we had no choice but to study almost 16 hours a day and on-days also used to have sleepless nights. Academics were that though here, as getting us skilled and ready for the jobs.

Faculties were gifted here because they looked like they had the natural teaching instinct. Their methods to simplify things and make us understand the subjects were amazing. Having fun with them during the breaks and after College was the most appreciable part with them. However, you can get close with them but can’t get into their skin, as some students tried to get saved from debt even with low attendance and faculties showed them where they belong. So, no messing around was never an option with them.

This was the real reason for me coming here because I saw placements for the last few batches and they were outstanding. I was expecting the same and got more than what I expected. Over 50 companies for sure, as interviews started from the mid-third semester and kept on till the penultimate days of last semester. I don’t think anybody missed the bus but if they had they can only blame themselves for that.

There was a huge boy’s hostel complex at the Sushant University campus. From UG to PG, students of various courses used to stay there. I had the option of the hostel but I chose otherwise, because hostel curfew timings and all were not manageable for me. Also, some students had issues with the food, as the quality was fine but the menu was quite repetitive. I didn’t want to look poor in any sense during my final years of College life and I stayed at a PG approximately 2 km from the College.

Gurgaon is scorching hot for the most part of the year. Thus, ACs were mandatory and luckily, libraries and classrooms were air-conditioned. It happened a few times that ACs were not working but HOD would get that fixed immediately so the action was fast. The campus was beautiful as not many campuses in India have squash, billiards, and lawn tennis facilities but Sushant University had that. There was a fitness building, as it had a gym and 4-5 rooms for Zumba, and Yoga classes. Students were given such training for a very nominal fee.

At Sushant University, if one wants to explore their expertise area of interest, they can. For M. Tech students too we used to have free days when we could do all that we wanted. Some of the events that I will never forget were ‘Pariksha Pe Charcha’ which was inspired by the TVF web series, and the fest Zeal. I had great fun at Sushant University and I am sure anybody who enrolls here will also have a great time.
