SMS Lucknow teaches computer science, artificial intelligence, and management, so the term followed those programmes. Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning was the engineering lab: what to keep, what to throw out, and how to say that out loud. Aptitude was timed practice for hiring rounds. Excel was the shared reporting tool for both the engineering and management sections. The college kept the lab.

Engineering sections left with an AI/ML evaluation they can walk through. Aptitude and Excel covered the placement and reporting work beside it.
