Academic Calendar: A Roadmap to Success
At Techno International Batanagar (TIB), we believe that an organized and well-planned Academic Calendar is the key to a productive and successful academic year. The academic calendar serves as a roadmap for students, faculty, and staff, ensuring that everyone is aligned with the institution’s educational objectives and schedules. It outlines important dates such as the start and end of semesters, exam schedules, holidays, and key academic events.
Our calendar is designed to provide ample time for academic activities, co-curricular engagements, and personal development, while also allowing flexibility for the evolving needs of students and faculty.
