About Sunrise College of Advanced Studies
As an affiliate of Kannur University, Sunrise College of Advanced Studies adopts the semester pattern and exam norms directly from the university, which means every December and May you’re staring at papers rather than Netflix. Small campus. I arrived thinking I’d focus on accounting but ended up running agar plates in the marine biology lab instead.
