In academics, the institute has been ranked by reputed agencies in different independent surveys. To augment the delivery capabilities of the Faculty of the MIET Group, the Faculty members are being trained on the latest technologies. A concept of T3 “Train the Trainer” is being followed, where selected faculty members get trained, and then in turn they train other faculty members. A minimum resource pool is being created in each technology and then regular classroom trainings are organized during the semester and breaks, which is followed up with the development and execution of projects on live problem statements collected from industry and society.
