How is a dual degree in mechanical engineering at IIT Bhubaneswar in comparison with NIT Surat (SVNIT) mechanical engineering?

SR

B.Tech in Mechanical from SVNIT

I pursued my B.Tech Mechanical from SVNIT, thus, I can only comment on my college.

The faculty of the mechanical department is top notch. Majority of our teachers are highly driven. It is because of them that mechanical is the most famous branch of our college. Our teachers emphasize practical knowledge over mere theoretical understanding. Many of them have more than 10 years of experience in teaching. The department has enough professors, so very few courses are taken by TAs. The faculty is very helpful for projects and research work.

The curriculum for B.Tech Mechanical is very rich, and you’ll get to choose one elective per semester in the 3rd and 4th year. You can choose courses from other branches as well. You can choose management courses, programming courses, physics related courses, automobile courses, etc. SVNIT is probably the only college that teaches its students topics like Mechatronics, Computational fluid mechanics (CFD), Cryogenics, etc. at the UG level itself. 

Unfortunately, like most other colleges, our practical syllabus and lab equipment needs to be upgraded. The labs do not contain equipment of the latest technology. The workshop contains all conventional and non conventional machines like lathe, shoper, milling, grinding, welding, abrasive jet machine, EDM, 3-D printer, etc.

As far as B.Tech Mechanical at SVNIT is concerned, I would say it is quite a decent option.

What do SVNIT Surat hostel rooms look like? Can anyone provide some photos?

Naman Sharma Posted On : January 30th, 2024
Studied at SVNIT, Surat

Almost all the hostel buildings have been replaced with newer and more modern ones. 

Just like the other hostel rooms, those at SVNIT are provided with Beds, Study Tables, Chairs, Wardrobes, Fans and Internet Connections. The washrooms are common for each lobby/wing. The arrangement is different for married Phd. students. They are provided with a 1HK setup, along with an attached washroom.

This is what the hostel rooms for B.Tech boys look like-

SVNIT Nagpur Hostel

Gajjar Bhawan for freshers

SVNIT College hostel

Double seater rooms

SVNIT College hostel

Swami Vivekanand Bhawan for third years

SVNIT College hostel

Single seater rooms

This is how the hostel rooms at SVNIT typically look like. They are quite decent, and have all the necessary facilities.
