Testimonials

“At SYMBIOSIS SKILLS AND PROFESSIONAL UNIVERSITY, in midst of adroit art infrastructure accompanied by highly intellectual, experienced and supportive faculties; I have witnessed our skills and competence rising to a zenith. The learner-centric environment crafted here trains us practically at industrial levels with academic curriculum and has motivated us for applying our skills with various projects and activities. SSPU has done a splendid job by inculcating the ability in us to learn and build a strong foundational knowledge provided. Specifically, about B.TECH in mechatronics, it has allowed me to understand and bond strongly with automation industry and to correlate well with mechanical and electrical energies. Everything I learn practically and theoretically, I can apply it in internship conducted during semester-ends. Furthermore, the internship i.e hands on skills has proved to be a valuable experience during study time. An opportunity to host of international tech and innovation competitions inspired us to expand our horizon of knowledge.”
