Any institute can be in the news for various reasons. The kind of publicity may be bad or good depending on the situation, but IIT Bhubaneswar is an institute of national importance and often in the news because of many new developments that they are doing in the field of engineering. Some of the attractions that were covered in news are:

  • Centre for Entrepreneurship is a non-profit organization that aims at the promotion of the spirit of entrepreneurship among students.
  • High placement packages up to 39 lakhs, offered by companies to students of IIT Bhubaneswar.
  • The state government engaged IIT-Bhubaneswar to conduct an audit of existing traffic calming initiatives on accident-prone roads.
  • During times of corona pandemic, IIT Bhubaneswar developed portable and low-cost ventilators.

These are some news that made IIT Bhubaneswar famous among students. Also, students have been winning many national level competitions from the institute which is also covered in media. The research papers written by faculty and students are also covered by the Indian media. Apart from all these things an Institute can never stop itself from being shown in negative space also. Institute administration has been alleged of corruption from time to time.

Both achievements and negativity publicity is part of the news. Many old IITs are also on the same page but IIT Bhubaneswar being a new IIT is always in light for such events.
