Gandhi Institute for Education and Technology Bhubaneswar B.Tech Mechanical Engineering: Fees 2025, Course Duration, Dates, Eligibility

Admission to the college is gained through formal entrance exams like IIT, AIEEE, and OJEE, followed by a selection process involving two rounds to allocate branch seats. The annual fee ranges from INR 1.3 lakh, covering education and accommodation, to INR 85,000 for those living off-campus. Under the Tuition Fee Waiver (TFW) scheme, students pay INR 60,000 annually for accommodation. Scholarships, such as Indian Oil and Medhabruti, are available, offering up to INR 80,000 per year for eligible students.

Despite promises of reduced fees over time, some fees, like those for bus and WiFi, are compulsory. The faculty is highly qualified, with a majority holding M.Tech or Ph.D. degrees, but teaching quality has mixed reviews. The student-to-teacher ratio is 70:1. Semester exams are challenging, and students have two internal assessments per semester. Students become eligible for campus placements from the 7th semester, with a placement success rate between 70-98%.

However, many offers are from lesser-known companies, with salaries averaging INR 8,000 to 18,000 per month and packages averaging 2-3 lakhs per annum. The highest package reported is 10 lakhs per annum. Major companies like TCS and ACCENTURE participate, though opportunities for Mechanical and Civil branches are limited to mainly startups. The Placement Department hosts skill development seminars but charges hidden fees for offer letters. Internships are not provided on-campus; however, students can pursue external internships at firms like SAIL and TATA Motors.

The college supports state and national scholarship applications through their portal, although it doesn't offer direct financial assistance.
