The faculty at the Oriental Institute of Science and Technology is predominantly composed of M.Tech graduates, with many holding Ph.D. degrees, primarily from prestigious institutions like NITs and IITs. There is a significant focus on theoretical knowledge with less emphasis on practical applications. The faculty-to-student ratio is approximately 1:30, ensuring individual attention, though this varies by department. While many faculty members are experienced, having up to 20-30 years in teaching, and are supportive and approachable, others are critiqued for lacking practical knowledge and being less engaging.
The teaching style is a mix of traditional and modern methods, with some faculty members being highly interactive and helpful, particularly in doubt-clearing sessions. Internal exams are frequent, with two mid-semester evaluations per semester, contributing to continuous assessment. Overall, faculty quality is described as mixed, with both highly skilled and less effective educators present.
