faculty staff of the institute, separately: | |||

yes, for what purpose? Browsing, chatting, application | |||
development, R&D? | |||

3. How many hours do students spend their time in the | |||
labs in the college? | |||
4. Are there any companies in the campus doing | |||
projects with students? | |||
5. Do students know any foreign language? | |||
6. How many courses/labs do students do per semester? | |||
7. Do students/faculty get Internet access 24x7? What | |||
about hostel students? | |||

flash disks/CDs to college and use it in the labs? | |||
