- It offers a great placement after the course completion, companies like microsoft, amazon google, flipkart and other companies like goldman sachs come to recruit new freshers in their companies and even offer internships as well.
- The fests conducted in our college are worth enjoying and marvelous talent is encouraged.
- No fees hike policy.cost to study is a bit high for a government organisation but it's worth it.scholarship opportunities financial assistance and job opportunities are very satisfactory over here.

- The scholarship availability should not be below 5 lakh.. it should be a larger number beacuse 5 lakh income is lower income than a lower middle class family.
- The faculty advisor is a very rude and strict person who doesn't understand the student's problems.
- Placements for lower branches are not that good and being a remote area more companies are not coming to college

College is very good in all persepective. Hostels are great, mess foods are delicious, faculty are helpful,seniors are co operative. But it will be great if all the faculty and college member try a little more for all around development of a student.

Remarks:
A big campus with a power packed sea of opportunities. Students can get a best college life here and can pursue any dream he/she want. Just a single problem is that Rourkela is not that a big city. Placements are good and are comparable with middle level IITs. You can easily achieve marks while having a life here.

Remarks:
I have already mentioned lots of positives. The negatives: Mess food (although the students from other colleges say we have much better) need to improve. At times, there's issue related to insects. It is far away from a major airport, so kind of becomes difficult to reach for out station students.

Remarks:
The college has mostly lived up to the expectations that I have had. The fact that this is a college that lived up to its claim of being free of ragging, is commendable. I often get to hear that despite all claims, most other colleges haven't been able to tackle this menace. Besides, the college has a mentorship system as well, where each fresher is assigned a mentor, who is a senior student, generally from the same branch. Negatives of the college could include its location, which is quite far from the heart of the city, and the fact that the city has no airport of its own, which affects the number and kind of visiting companies to an extent.

Remarks:
The college is really good. The huge campus full of greenery is a sight to behold. It's very clean and peaceful. Availability of resources, good transportation and communication facilities are there. Courese from undergraduation till post graduation are on offer. Experienced and skilled professors are also there. Apart from that placements are good. Substance abuse is a major drawback.

Positive remark is that it balances between the holidays and academics very well. Academics are fairly traditional and could be improved to help the students with the knowledge of modern day industries.

in my view it is neither a very good Institute nor a bad Institute. good faculties are very rare..timing are such that it is almost impossible to keep on with timing ...also the scorching summer and chilling winter add a new cause to dislike the place the temperature difference from summer to winter is about 37 degree celsius year is full of fests .very good environment & peaceful place..If u r looking for a good college then you should opt for other nits or drop one year and go to IITs. one thing at last it doesn't matter where you are studying if you have knowledge you will definitely succeed..

- The faculties are a mixed bag. Some are underqualified and lethargic while some motivate you to become a better person.
