The laboratories are utilized through a structured, timetable-based allocation to ensure adequate access for all practical courses and academic activities. Courses involving practical components are provided with scheduled laboratory sessions every week as per the academic timetable. Each laboratory is placed under the charge of one teaching faculty member and two laboratory instructors, ensuring effective academic and technical support. The laboratories are equipped with sufficient hardware and relevant software to support programming, practical sessions, project work, and other academic activities. Free and open-source software is utilized wherever appropriate to promote hands-on learning and support the academic requirements of the programme.
