Infrastructure: Our hostel is very good. In one room, they accommodate 3 students for 1st-year students. We have good classrooms, but we have no Wi-Fi in classes. We have a central library where every book is available. For the 1st-year students, our college provides the best infrastructure, providing excellent hostel facilities.

Best engineering college in Odisha.
Placements: 80% placement rate overall. The Mechanical Engineering branch has a 95% placement rate. The lowest package is 3 LPA, the highest package is 22 LPA, and the average package is 6.25 LPA. L&T, Aditya Birla Group, and JSW Group are the top recruiters. Internship facilities are also available, and the college has tried with different organizations to provide modern skills to students.
Infrastructure: Infrastructure is also above average in our college. The library contains all kinds of books, and the lab is also well-equipped. Wi-Fi facilities are available on campus. Classrooms have digital boards. VIMSAR is present near our campus for medical facilities. The campus is also well-connected to Sambalpur and Burla markets through the city bus and Mo bus.
Faculty: Faculty are excellent in our college, and the majority are Ph.D. qualified. The majority of our faculty members are Ph.D. holders, and some have also completed their Ph.D. from top IITs. Semester exams are mostly easy, and the majority of questions are from pyqs, except in some subjects.

Good for core enthusiasts.
Placements: The placements at my college are average. Despite what they say on their website and in person, the placements are mediocre at best. Last year, the best placements were in metallurgy and core branches, with an average package of 9-11 LPA. Non-core companies offered very low salaries, averaging 4-5.5 LPA. Students who found jobs on their own should give credit to the college for providing the resources to help them succeed.
Infrastructure: The labs have new equipment, but they are not using it; instead, they are using all the old equipment. A new building is under construction, and most academic activities will move there, so perhaps they will start using the new equipment then. As for the hostels, only one is new (Agastya Boys HOR); the others are old and have poor hygiene facilities. The food is mediocre, and the Wi-Fi doesn't work in some hostels. The classrooms are good and equipped with smart boards.
Faculty: The faculty in some branches are helpful and good, but in others the environment is toxic. Exams are conducted on time with a high level of strictness. However, the syllabus for non-core branches needs to be updated and reviewed, as it is outdated and doesn't help students get placed in good companies. Students have to take time out of academics to study the syllabus, rather than it being included in the course itself.

Good infrastructure, knowledgeable faculty, and vibrant campus at VSSUT.
Placements: About 70 percent of the students got placed the previous year. The highest package ranged from 10-12 Lacs, the average was 6-7 Lacs, and the lowest was 4-5 Lacs per annum. The top recruiting companies were: 1. Wipro, 2. ONGC, 3. Cognizant, 4. IOCL, 5. HPCL, 6. BPCL, 7. TATA STEEL, etc. Top roles that are offered in the course are petroleum engineer, project engineer, environmental engineer, graduate engineer trainee, etc.
Infrastructure: The facilities and infrastructure of the chemical engineering department at Veer Surendra Sai University of Technology (VSSUT) are made to foster high academic excellence and holistic growth. Well-equipped laboratories, such as the fluid mechanics lab, the heat transfer lab, and the reaction engineering lab, ensure hands-on learning and research. The library houses a huge reserve of textbooks, journals, and digital resources related to academics for all students. Medical facilities at VSSUT include a health center on campus with basic medical services and access to a nearby hospital for emergencies. Sports and games play a very important role.
Faculty: The faculty members in the chemical engineering department at Veer Surendra Sai University are outstanding and approachable. The academic background of the faculty is excellent, and they have excellent hands-on experience in their fields for excellent delivery of concepts. The quality of teaching is simply commendable, consisting of theory and practical methodologies by case studies and sessions in the lab. The curriculum relevant to the demands of the industry covers vital topics like process engineering, thermodynamics, and environmental management. While semester exams are moderately challenging, they are definitely manageable when proper preparation is done consistently.
Other: I chose chemical engineering for its vast career opportunities in industries like petrochemicals, pharmaceuticals, and environmental engineering. The course integrates chemistry, mathematics, and engineering to solve real-world problems. The best aspects include hands-on lab experience, an industry-relevant curriculum, and knowledgeable faculty. Improvements include updated lab equipment, more internships, and electives on emerging new technologies like green engineering. Campus life has events such as Samavesh and Vassaunt, along with a lot of extracurricular activities like clubs and sports. The serene campus environment, scholarships, and crowd really help build an individual, and better connectivity and upgraded facilities would really make the experience viable.
