Shwetabh Sinha's Review On National Institute Of Technology - [NIT] Meghalaya, Shillong

NIT Meghalaya is a decent institute as par as studies are concerned. You will have ample of chance to study and learn new stuffs, being a new institute you get a lot of stuffs and initiatives to be done and handled single handy which gives another chance not only to learn and showcase your skills but also to use it in future for organizing similar stuffs in future.Being a MeghNITe , it was always a cutting edge for me in interviews and people used to literally appreciate the exposure I had even from being a remote located college of India ( though it was not pretty different to what a normal NITian would had in other NIT).If you do same thing in limited resources to what your competitor does with ample of resources, even having same outcome its more likely to get appreciated and this is what happens when you are studying at new NIT.Coming to infrastructure : NIT M has decent labs ( comparable to even many of old IITs ) ,mix of youth ,energetic and quite experienced pool of faculties , prime location and technically sound students as college.I would suggest to go ahead with decision and consider it a fair Chance to study at NITM (Provided you do not have any better option).

Firstly the quality of teaching in NITs is much better than many other engineering colleges in India. It may not live to your expectations but in reality it has the best faculty training the some of the smartest kids of the nation. In TLR criteria (Teaching Learning and Resources), NIT-M ranked 11 in India. (Source: National Institutional Ranking Framework, MHRD)

Since we are working on a temporary campus, right now we don't have any on campus hostel facilities. The hostels are distributed in the city and bus facilities are provided from hostels to the campus. So if you are planning to join in NITM, I can only explain about how your first year hostel life gonna be like since we will be shifting to our permanent campus soon.The life in hostels of NIT Meghalaya is multi-faceted community life. It is like all the cultures of India coming together under one roof.In first year, you will be in Bamboo Huts Boys hostel, the freshman hostel. It is located in North eastern Hill University (1025 acres campus). Its not like other engineering college hostels where you have big buildings, first floor, second floor etc. Its just something different here. I will just need one word to describe our hostel. FREEDOM.
