Admission: The teachers here are a mixed bag. Some are really helpful, but others seem like they don't care about us at all. It feels like they're not even connected to the students. And some of the native teachers can be discriminatory. Communication with them is tough because they often speak in Oriya and hardly use Hindi. They mostly rely on broken English, which makes it hard to talk to them.

Admission: Around half of the teachers are friendly and willing to help out. The course content feels outdated and doesn't cover topics like hydrogen fuel, electric cars, or solar energy. Instead, they focus on waste management, nanoscience, and energy production from waste. Attendance rules are pretty strict here.

Tata offered 3.99 LPA to 2 aerospace and

Campus: The college has all the facilities we need. But the Wi-Fi is kinda bad. It doesn't work well in classrooms and it's slow. Sometimes we can't even submit our quizzes. The desks and tables are too narrow and uncomfortable. On the bright side, the library has comfy chairs and big tables. Just remember, they won't let you in if you're wearing shorts. Some books are locked up, but you can ask the librarian for them. You gotta sign in, show your ID, then you can borrow the book. The labs feel a bit like high school. The teachers do most of the work, we just observe.
