Questions Asked On IGIT Sarang, Dhenkanal

How is Campus life at IGIT sarang? And what is the best branch (in terms of teaching standards)?

RS
Rupali Samal Posted On : March 5th, 2021

The campus life of IGIT Sarang is not that great. So, it is better to keep the standards low. The campus is around 379 acres. The residential part of the campus is covered by 179 acres, situated nearby the Brahmani river. The additional 200 acres are left unused for future expansion projects. The experience of students in the initial years is discussed below.

  • In the initial years, the students find the campus dull and complain about it. After a year, with the increasing familiarity, they start loving it. There are strict rules and time deadlines for girls. After 7 pm, girls are not allowed to roam around. They should be within the hostel.
  • Students spend most of the time at chowk, food courts, canteen or cafeteria. These are the hot-spots to hang out with friends and relax.
  • Students get bored of campus within a couple of months. The reason is that the campus is isolated from the outside world. Everyone from IGIT is living within a radius of 5 km.
  • The campus life revolves around friends. They are the best companions and even politics.
  • Computer science is the best branch here. It interestingly organizes its branch events

Life in IGIT Sarang is not easy, yet it is fun.

Where can I find a detailed account about the life in the girl’s hostel in IGIT, Sarang? How many people are in one room, does it have attached baths, and how are the power supply and water facilities

You probably won’t find a detailed account of the life of a girls hostel at IGIT Sarang anywhere. But, I can definitely give you a brief insight of the same, since I have few friends at the institute. 

  • Freshers are given according to Rohini Bhawan. Rooms at Rohini are 6 sharing. Staying with 6 other people is not easy, so you need to adjust.
  • There are no attached bathrooms. There are 4 bathrooms in each corner of the 2-storey hostel. Each bathroom has 3 basins, 3 washrooms, and 3 stalls for baths. Bathrooms are cleaned regularly. 
  • Power facilities are good. But there are long power cuts, especially during summer.
  • Water facilities are not good here. Bring disinfectants like Dettol or Savlon with you if you don’t want to get any skin diseases. 

Hope this gave you an idea about the life at girl hostel at IGIT Sarang

Is studying mechanical engineering at IGIT, Sarang good?

SB
Sunayana Bose Posted On : March 20th, 2021
Studied at Indira Gandhi Institute of Technology, Sarang

One of my friends graduated from IGIT this year. Here are a few things that I got to know about the Mechanical branch at IGIT. 

Placements:

According to the statistics the placement sector is down in almost all colleges of Odisha. Seeing on the placement statistics of past years hardly a core company came for placement in IGIT.

  • Companies like Vedanta, Jindal, and Bhushan did come for the core sector but the probability of students getting selected is not up to the mark.
  • Most mechanical engineers join TCS or Tech Mahindra in IT. Very few of the students get placed in core companies like Vedanta, Jindal, or Bhushan.

This same situation can be seen in colleges like VSSUT and CET too. But they arrange some off-campus for mechanical students. Going in other campus placement is good in CET followed by VSSUT than IGIT. But that doesn’t make a big difference. Placement is almost the same in these colleges for core companies.

About Mechanical Branch:

The mechanical branch is one of the most strict branches of the institute. 

  • It has well-equipped labs or workshops and this is something mechanical engineers brag about.
  • IGIT has more reputed and respected professors in mechanical engineering as compared to other colleges.

The quality of education is average.

It will be better if you opt for CET followed by VSSUT and then IGIT. CET/VSSUT does call mass recruiters as compared to IGIT. IT jobs play the role of saviors since the number of core jobs is quite less. and are not likely to get a boost in near future.

How is the teaching and placement in ETC for IGIT, Sarang in Odisha currently?

Studied at Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur (2019)

A friend of mine completed BTech in Electronics and Telecom from IGIT. Here are some of the things that he shared about the institute. 

  • Initially, you will feel the pressure from lots of assignments as assigned but then you will get used to it.
  • The curriculum followed by the Department takes into account the latest subjects as per the current scenario.
  • During lab sessions, you will have the guidance of teachers. According to my friend, Sunita ma’am was quite helpful. Some Faculties have exceptional knowledge in the field of Networking and Communication. My friend's guide was also of great help during his project in the final year.
  • Apart from all this, there is decent placement as well not in terms of quality but quantity. Students get placed in companies such as TCS, Tech Mahindra, and Concept Infoway, etc.

From what I heard, there is not too much pressure from Teachers. You are free to do anything. So, make the most of your time at the institute.

SD
Sumana Dhar Posted On : March 5th, 2021
Studied at Indira Gandhi Institute of Technology, Sarang

Experiencing a stay at different hostels is necessary to compare the hostel food of IGIT Sarang. In terms of food, IGIT Sarang serves the best taste on the platter.

The food is available at affordable rental rates and serves better quality than any other college hostel. You will love the food served here, once you get used to it. 

If you are a girl, you have to adjust till 3rd year. For the first 2 years, you will be staying in Rohini Bhawan and the food there is not as good as Prithvi Bhawan. However, you can order in from Jagannath, Brundaban, cafeteria, KFC.

If you are a boy there are various options in or out of campus. You only need to explore.

Who is the best professor of IGIT, Sarang?

SS
Shaurya Singh Posted On : March 1st, 2021
Studied at Indira Gandhi Institute of Technology, Sarang

The answer to this question varies on the professors who are in charge of your classes. Answering this question on the basis of academics would be difficult for any person.

Pre-final year students are in charge of organizing functions like the annual and welcoming events. When my senior was in her organizing year, in some way or the other, she was part of every function that took place at the college-level. Through her involvements, she got the chance to interact with professors across a lot of branches in their official capacities. Some of the professors are:

  • G.K. Pothal Sir: He became the head of the cultural department when my senior was in the institute. He was a very approachable person, which cannot be said for most professors in the college. He was always imposing and always addressed the issues of the students. He even guided the students in the literary fest Anweshan.
  • S.K. Chand Sir: He always devoted his attention to helping the students. He had immense knowledge about what he taught and always apologized whenever he missed classes. He made sure to compensate for the missed classes for completion of the syllabus. He is a very disciplined member of the faculty.
  • B.C. Panda Sir: He is considered a favorite among the students. He is not only very active in college but also laid back. He always tries to guide his students through his vast experience.
  • S.N. Mishra Sir: Students have a love-hate relationship with him. But he is known to go out of his way to help his students.

There are a lot of noteworthy teachers in the institute. All of them work collectively towards the betterment of the students and the institute.

How good is chem engg in IGIT sarang regarding placement? I have option of joining Chemical @ IGIT or CSE at Silicon bbs Suggest me which one to join.

RR
Reeta Rath Posted On : March 5th, 2021

The stream in which you wish to make your career is more relevant than knowing about the college that you choose, as the chief problem is the stream that you choose.

As per the listed choices, it would be better to choose Computer Science from Silicon BBS over Chemical at IGIT. The reason is that the faculty of IGIT Chemical engineering is not very impressive. Most of the teachers there are recent graduates recruited due to a lack of qualified faculties. 

As the campus of IGIT is isolated from the town, very few companies visit there for the campus whereas, Silicon has a location advantage. It is more like a school as it has strict attendance rules. However, their placement record definitely makes up for it.

Does ragging happen in IGIT, Sarang?

RM
Ruchira Mohapatra Posted On : March 1st, 2021
B.Tech Electronics and Telecommunication Engineering, Indira Gandhi Institute of Technology, Sarang (2020)

In the last four years, the scenario has remarkably changed for the better. Ragging has not been heard of for some years now. The juniors are interacted with and are imparted knowledge for better use in the future.

IGIT Sarang boasts of having some of the best rapport among the seniors and their juniors. You of course should introduce yourselves to your seniors and be respectful with them. They will become like a family to you after you have been well acquainted with them. The seniors are also known to even take care of your petty expenses. A senior of mine told me that she even got a free ride from one of her then seniors.

Building a good relationship with your seniors and peers is important and it goes without saying. They will guide you a lot in your future endeavors. The bonding you will have with your seniors will also help you hone your versatility in the long run.
