- Teacher kit for higher-degree scientific explorations
EnglishLab
EnglishLab helps students develop English language skills and communicate more effectively. It follows a blended teaching and learning approach, with each lesson comprising instructor-led classroom sessions and computer-based lab sessions. Different kinds of interactive games and puzzles ensure an engaging learning experience for the students. Additionally, various innovative tools such as NextDictionary, writing and phonetic tutors and pronunciation tools improve the students’ writing and speaking skills.
Computer Lab
Technology has made inroads into every aspect of our life and therefore, technological knowledge is essential for success in the future. Keeping this in mind, we have designed a well-equipped computer lab where students can experience technology first-hand. In addition, every student is given the freedom to use and upgrade computers and other digital equipment independently. Our experienced and dedicated teachers facilitate students’ learning and keep them informed about different technological advancements around the globe.
