Overall Experience Was Best of My Knowledge: Great Campus Life and Very Good Environment.
Placements: Above 75% of students got placed last year. The highest package offered to students was 18 LPA by Power Grid, while the average package was 9.9 LPA. The top recruiting companies included Vedanta, Tata Projects, Oil, and Power Grid. More than 75% of students secured internships at Tata Projects and Vedanta.
Infrastructure: My department is Electrical Engineering, and we have all possible labs, a library, and classrooms equipped with smart boards and projectors. There is 24/7 Wi-Fi availability in our department. In our hostel, we also have Wi-Fi, a common room for group interactions, various games courts, and a garage. The mess provides good quality food. On campus, there is an NHU (Nerist Health Unit) where a doctor is available 24/7.
Faculty: The teachers in our department are very helpful and qualified, with all of them holding doctorates in their subjects. The course curriculum is relevant and provides various industrial training opportunities for students. They plan trips to visit nearby industries for training. We have exams in one semester, including mid-semester and end-semester assessments. The semester exams are quite tough, requiring a minimum score of 35% to pass.
Other: I chose Electrical Engineering because of my interest in electrical things, and there are great job and placement opportunities in this field. I wish our college had better transportation services and improved practical classes, as some equipment is quite old. Our college holds many events every year, such as the cultural fest called RACAF and the sports event called Synergy, along with various other cultural events. The campus crowd is fascinating, and the connectivity among different departments and classrooms is excellent. The atmosphere of our campus is beautiful, surrounded by greenery that provides fresh air and a pleasant environment. NCC and NSS are additional extracurricular activities available on campus.

More or less, the college is great.
Placements: So far, there have been very few placements in my department. The top companies are Amul and Nestle, but they really don't want to come so far away from the main land for recruitment. So the campus selection is really low. But the TNP cell is working hard on this.
Infrastructure: The lab and the infrastructure are really good; we have all the equipment that we need for our business, whether in a farm lab or a food lab. The medical facility is also good; there is everything available for indoor and outdoor games, and the Wi-Fi is also great.
Faculty: Faculty members are also good. The teaching quality is also good; we have specialized labs and lab attendees for every subject. In the farm machinery domain, we are industry-ready, but due to the scarcity of faculty in the food domain, we have less knowledge.
Other: The campus life is really great; we have a great ambience, and the campus is really silent. A cultural festival like Sonabyss Racaff is the oldest cultural festival in Arunachal Pradesh, and a technical festival like Shristi is really good for us.

Life at NERIST, Arunachal Pradesh.
Placements: Very poor placements; 40/450 students got placed with the highest package of 8 LPA and the lowest of 2.16 LPA. There is no dedicated placement officer and very poor conditions for placement but its getting better, and some new initiatives are being taken to make placements better.
Infrastructure: As the institute is very old, the infrastructure is very old: small classrooms, a lack of technology, no smart classes, no advanced labs, old labs with sufficient technician, lack of types of equipment, etc. But in this regard, new buildings are being constructed and slowly, things are getting better.
Faculty: Some old teachers are very good and helpful but most of them are retiring and no new faculty members are being recruited. Research scholars take classes but they are not that efficient and inexperienced. The curriculum is mostly relevant, with some unusual things. Exams are conducted with the utmost seriousness.
