The university operates eco-friendly minibuses powered by CNG (compressed natural gas), which travel between the main academic buildings, dormitory areas, administrative blocks, and nearby public transport stations.
The shuttle service runs every 20–30 minutes during working hours and is available free of charge to students, faculty, and administrative employees. Shuttle stops are clearly marked within the campus, and the schedule is displayed on campus notice boards.
