The University School of Information, Communication and Technology (USICT) is part of the main campus of Guru Gobind Singh Indraprastha University (GGSIPU), Dwarka, New Delhi. The campus is a well-developed, technically oriented, research and student development-focused setting. The campus is in an urban environment but is disciplined and organized to create an engineering and technology environment.
The academic buildings, laboratories, hostels, sports facilities, and common activity areas are placed in close proximity to each other in such a way that students can move freely from one class to another, from the laboratory to practical classes, and from the hostels to common activity spaces and vice versa. Students settle into the life and learning of the campus very quickly.
The classrooms at USICT are equipped with modern facilities and technical infrastructure, digital teaching tools, and projectors, which enable an integrated approach of theory and practice. Depending on the course and department, this can be a lecture, a discussion, a coding exercise, or a project-based class.
Laboratories are an important part of the academic system. Regular coding assignments, technical projects, practical sessions, and hardware-based experiments are conducted by computer science, information technology, artificial intelligence, and electronics students.
The central library continues to be an active academic space, particularly during exams, placements, and project submissions. Students utilize digital and print materials to learn about technology, programming, and research. Apart from this, the seminar halls and lecture theatres are also used for workshops, technical events, guest lectures, placement activities, and more on a regular basis.
The learning experience at USICT is not limited to class time. Coding competitions, group projects, hackathons, presentations, and team tech activities are common activities for students. Some students also work on projects and internships after school hours.
Students learn to experiment, develop projects, and enhance their problem-solving abilities through technical societies, innovation groups, and coding clubs. Students have opportunities to relate what they learn at school with the expectations of the industry through interaction sessions, presentations by alumni, and workshops.
Hostel life at USICT is organized and situated within the GGSIPU campus. There are separate hostels with security, internet connectivity, study areas, and regular maintenance.
Even though food is provided in the mess, students gradually grow accustomed to the regular food and hostel life. The availability of wardens, medical assistance, and support staff brings reassurance for students living away from home for the first time.
Common areas within the campus are used as canteens or food outlets during breaks. They are often used for eating snacks, drinking tea, and having lunch during breaks between classes and practical sessions, along with informal chatter. Eventually, these spaces become a natural part of campus life.
The university has facilities for playing cricket, football, basketball, volleyball, badminton, table tennis, and various other games. Students have access to fitness and sports facilities, which assist them in leading a balanced life alongside their studies.
The campus remains vibrant and active throughout the academic year with technical festivals, sports competitions, cultural programs, and student activities.
Student clubs and societies are an integral part of campus life. Clubs organized by students, such as coding clubs, robotics clubs, entrepreneurship cells, cultural societies, photography clubs, and technical forums, motivate students to engage in activities beyond academics.
Networking, teamwork, and leadership development opportunities arise during hackathons, annual technical festivals, coding events, workshops, and institutional celebrations.
Regular security systems, medical support, and student assistance facilities are maintained at the GGSIPU campus. The university is well connected with both the road and metro networks of Delhi, making it convenient for students and visitors.
The green spaces, organized infrastructure, and pedestrian-friendly atmosphere promote a cleaner and more pleasant environment than many institutions in crowded cities.
Students at USICT gradually become accustomed to the balance of academics, technical training, and personality development. The institute fosters discipline, hands-on learning, exposure to coding, teamwork, and the development of skills in a non-restrictive setting.
Upon graduation, many students possess superior technical knowledge, project experience, problem-solving skills, and confidence that will help them in their professional careers and further education.
USICT is an organized, technology-oriented, and academically disciplined campus situated within the GGSIPU campus at Dwarka, New Delhi.
Academics are supported by modern classrooms, technical laboratories, coding-related practical learning, and a central library in which students can access both digital and printed resources.
Apart from academic activities, the institute offers hostel facilities, sports activities, student clubs, technical societies, cultural activities, coding competitions, and other campus activities for students to develop academically and socially.
