This massive bandwidth links the university to the NKN network of institutions, providing access to a large number of libraries, on-line lectures, archived lectures of various IITs, virtual classrooms and many more facilities available under NKN.

ERP

An ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) implementation has ensured that all processes within the university are computerised and information readily accessible to authorised users (administrators, faculty, students and parents). Right from the application stage up to the time one leaves the university one can monitor one’s progress and access one’s records from the ERP system.

Entrepreneurship Development and Incubation Centre (EDIC)

The University has set up an ‘Entrepreneurship Development and Incubation Centre’ that will benefit the students of the university as well as the general public, with the active involvement of Entrepreneurship Development Institute of India (EDII) Ahmadabad, industrial houses and venture capital funding agencies. The Centre will provide an enabling atmosphere to the would-be entrepreneur to realize his/her dreams through a variety of workshops, training programmes and handholding activities.

Transport

The Azara Campus has chartered buses to ply between the city and the University daily. The Tapesia Campus is also very well connected by city buses, and trekker taxi services.

Language Lab

The university has set up a spacious computerised language lab to facilitate the learning of Spoken English among the students. A number of students who join the University are from vernacular medium educational background and, as such, they need to be taught afresh the English language. The Lab facilitates the teaching-learning of expressions in English in different contexts and the pronunciation of words, sentences and expressions with user-friendly audio–visual aids. It aims at enabling the students to learn and correct themselves so as to be able to communicate in English confidently with a reasonable fluency and clarity.
