Remarks

A friend of mine refferd and the thing i loved was the atmosphere and infrastructure, If you are a person who loves to be in a peaceful surrounding and a silent library this is the place to be. I opted for mechanical engineering as i had interest in automobile and manufacturing sector, however the core companies do not visit the campus as it is quite oddly located.

Course Curriculum Overview

Academics is an improvement area and neeD to really focus on practical learning. Practicals were rarely organized and no industrial exposure from college. Student need to arrange their own internship and industrial course. Faculties are quite average and education system is very outdated. However there was few faculties that were beyond good. Dr. D.R Biswal - HOD Mechanical is one of the best faculties.

Internships Opportunities

I had done Internship in Byjud thr learning app as a business development Trainee and got a stipend of 25000. To apply one must visit the site - www.byjus.careers and apply there, after that you will receive a call back and a telephonic discussion is done following a video session

Placement Experience

1

Few companies that visited are IMS PEOPLE, STFC, INFINITE SOLUTIONS, FEDERAL BANK, WONJIN AUTOPARTS. The placement cell is supportive and helpful. The profile they offer is GET- Graduate engineering Trainee.

College Events

Campus is full of facilities, the only downside is the campus life and campus placement. You have all the facilities be it gym, sports complex, swimming pool, soccer field, basketball field but there won't be anyone to play and looking at it seems it's not used since ages. Every year during the month of February a fest is organised - Vasantika Tech fest for Engineering Student and Avantika for management, Chalantika for Diploma. A tech fest is organised namely Driest.

Fees and Financial Aid

There is no scholarship as such, you might get a small discount on tuition fee is you have good scores, the discount amount can be around 18000. The only scholarship program i heard was of state government and people belonging to OBC AND Sc/ST category for that also the process was quite hectic and there is no saying that you might get. For general categories there was no scholarship program.

Campus Life

Campus is full of facilities, the only downside is the campus life and campus placement. Driems is one of the best college in odisha as far as campus infrastructure is concerned, it has the biggest 12 storey library which is onE of a kind. You have all the facilities be it gym, sports complex, swimming pool, soccer field, basketball field but there won't be anyone to play and looking at it seems it's not used since ages.

Hostel Facilities

Hostel accommodation is good, You get a triple sharing room. The room is quite big in size with seperate study table but no cupboard facilities to keep luggage. Its non- ac and no facilities incase you want one. Wi-fi is available and water cooler. Mess is quite far from hostel.

Course Curriculum Overview:

The curriculum is now updated since it became a University, so its more relevant to industry now but still we have to do extra courses for coding. Exams happen every few months—2 internals and one end-sem. They are not very easy, you actually need to study to pass without backlogs

Course Curriculum Overview:

The pedagogy is excellent since majorly learning is through real-world case studies, reserach papers, peer discussions and interactive class activities. The professors provide materials and pre-reads at the starting of the term and the content is highly focussed on practical learning. The AI sessions are enriching. The difficulty level of exams vary among the instructors but usually is aligned with topics already taught.

Course Curriculum Overview:

I wanted to become a doctor, and MBBS is the first step to become one, so I choose this course. This course makes you a primary care physician, capable of providing basic healthcare services. And being a bachelor's degree, this is a stepping stone for the future endeavours in medico life. Though I feel there's room for improvement in the flexibility of the course, as there's not much to choose what to study. Exams are once in 2-3 months, and are moderately difficult, except the professional exams, for which you have to put your best efforts

Course Curriculum Overview:

Well MBBS is a serving degree, if you are interested in serving the people you can choose this degree. It also needs a lot of patience, here we have classes from 7 AM so its a bit hard to wake up this early & ends at 4 PM which causes more trouble coz u won't get to rest properly, usually we end up being tired & lack of sleep, so I think this schedule can have a bit more change with regards to us children. The exams here are done very frequently, as in the class tests are taken up time to time , sometimes surprise tests are also done so u have to be very updated with what's being studied each cls.The internals are held in every trimester & at the end of the year a product exam is being held which is the important one.
