RIE Bhubaneswar Faculty

The faculty at this college is highly qualified, with most holding Ph.D. degrees and having considerable experience, including international teaching backgrounds. Approximately 70% of the faculty are part-time or on an ad-hoc basis, and there is a noted shortage of permanent faculty, particularly in the B.Sc. department, where teaching methods are considered outdated. The education department is well-regarded, with faculty who are part of NCERT and some associated with NCRRT, providing a strong program for those pursuing teaching careers.

The college is recognized as a premier institution for aspiring teachers in India, though it lacks research opportunities. The student-to-faculty ratio is 30:1, and faculty members are approachable and supportive, providing quality notes and assisting students in understanding the material. There are two semesters each year, with two internal exams of 15 marks each, leading to theory and practical exams. The course curriculum is relevant, and there is a need for more permanent faculty, with ongoing recruitment to address this issue.
