Maj. Gen. (Retd.) Prof. S.K Sharma attributed the stellar performance of the students to the implementation of the Skill Development Matrix for each student under which specific skills and trainings are provided to students each semester.

This was greatly appreciated by the visiting HR managers of recruiting companies.
