Remarks

NIST is the number - 1 college in Eastern India, top most college in Odisha, it holds 60th Rank among all Engineering colleges in India (by Outlook). One of the reality is, I was staying in Berhampur where the college is located - this is the biggest factor, which induced me to join the college. I heard a lot about this college, since this is the best Engineering college in Odisha. It's campus is very beautiful and after seeing it we can't ignore this college. Apart from this it's Labs, academics, sports facilities (indore stadium) are awesome. So if you are not able get into any IIT and NIT colleges, then this one of the best private colleges.

Course Curriculum Overview

Courses in our college was industrial standard. So if you will take any branch like ECE, CS/IT, Mechanical, EEE then can get jobs in very renowned industries/companies, due to your exposure towards practical knowledge because of the LAB facilities

Class Size: 45Course Fees: INR 450000 per year

Internships Opportunities

I have done my internship in Sankalp Semiconductor, in VLSI/Electronics field (Analog designer). After that, I placed and joined in INTEL INDIA and my initial package was 11 LPA (Even I was selected in INFOSYS and WIPRO campus drive)

Placement Experience

As per my experience, there are so many companies coming for Campus recruitment. e.g., TCS, Capgemini, INFOSYS, Wipro etc. IT companies. Cadence, Sankalp, broadcom, entuple, perfect VIP, Corel etc. VLSI companies. for other companies and details please visit college site.

College Events

There is 2 tech fest happening in our college yearly. One can participate in all these events and all these are grand, even big celebrities are invited in those nights and all tech fest and event are for inter-college competition. I have participated in technical events mostly in my time and have won many awards as well - last year I was part of the organization committee. You can participate in cultural events as well.

Fees and Financial Aid

If your family income is less than 2.5Lakhs then you can get TWF scholarship, which will waive full tuition fees. Apart from this you can get NIST scholarship of 1500 Rs each month if you have a very good academic background and poor economic background. (I was part of these scholarships)

Campus Life

I think NIST has one of the biggest Library among best institutes in INDIA. It's LABs well designed to amplify knowledge of an Engineer. And about Campus and sports facility - you need to go there and live it, it's AWESOME.

Likes

The college campus greenery and campus cleaning management are doing really very well that is the only good part but that doesn't matter much for your career.
⭐⭐There is nothing good to mention about this college after going through all the procedures from taking admission to degree,I regret and many of my friends also regretting taking admission into this college.⭐⭐

Dislikes

They have a good well maintained cricket ground but students are never allowed there only for commercial purposes and to attract new joinee.
Staff and management are very helpful and polite only till admission done.🥲.
Hostel food quality is extremely unhigenic, no one takes responsibility after many complaints also.

Course Curriculum Overview:

Course curriculum was very classical , too much theory oriented for placement point of view they will provide last 1 month or 2 months training for aptitude part rest for technical you have to study on your own.

All over india projects, research and development work are conducted

Dislikes

Poor placement cell organization among student as well as authority
Hostel facility are not up to the mark, regarding food and hygiene
Many departments are having less faculties due to which study is hampered a lot

Placement Experience:

From 7th semester of undergraduate and 3rd semester of postgraduate student are eligible fir campus. But the number of companies come to take agriculture student are very less which is disappointing. Mahindra company comes which gives the highest package upto 6 lakh. Other ngo like pradan also comes. About 30% student get placement My plans are for civil service after my course

A pretty good college with scope of improvement

Likes

The campus life is amazing. Our student union is extremely hard-working, and they always come up with some events or other to make your boredom go away
Faculties are very knowledgeable and unlike most colleges, they actually want to teach. The clinical experience is unmatched
Infrastructure is top notch. Single rooms are available from second year, and the hostels are quite well maintained

Dislikes

The curriculum is a bit too strict regarding marks and attendance. A little leniency would have been better
The campus area is a little smaller compared to other AIIMS
Too much administrative red tape causes delay in almost everything, be it installation of new water filters or filling a pothole

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

Supportive seniors, help with studies n all
You will get a good environment for studies

Dislikes

Well campus isn't as we expected it to be
As always you have to choose your friends wisely
There's not a lot of fests going on yearly as like other colleges

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.
