How is the mechanical branch at Navrachana University in Vadodara?

Most of the faculty members at Navrachana University are alumni from IITs and it is worth it to pursue Mechanical engineering. This university is a good place if you want to prepare for the GATE examinations. It follows the exact syllabus for GATE and engineering services.

The pattern of teaching at Navrachana University is different from that of Gujarat Technological University (GTU). You will be asked questions in any pattern in the examination. You will not be asked to follow any standard books but a lot of reference books instead.

Following is the pattern of examination followed by Navrachana University:

• 2 quizzes - 15 marks each
• 1 mid-semester exam - 30 marks
• 1 end semester exam - 40 marks

The mid-semester and quizzes are considered like internal assessments in which scoring a minimum of 18 marks are mandatory to be eligible for the end semester exam. Scoring a minimum of 12 marks is mandatory in the end-semester exam. If you fail to obtain the minimum marks, you will have to appear for the exams again.

A minimum attendance of 80% is mandatory otherwise you will not be allowed to appear for the exams. Do not bunk the lectures as they are very informative and you will enjoy every bit of it. However, the environment at the campus is chill and no one will force you to attend the classes.
