Remarks

Donot join this institution. It will be an end to your career. Not at all recommend.

Entrance Preview

OJEE- 172 RANK. I DID NOT CHOOSE THIS COLLEGE. I GOT THIS COLLEGE THROUGH ONLINE COUNSELLING. Its rank is also good in the overall ranking of colleges.

Course Curriculum Overview

0.5

The curriculum is formed by bput Rourkela and is strictly maintained by the institution. No research work is promoted by the college and very limited resources in the lab. So one is unable to enhance the creative process. You have to be self sufficient in order to carry out research works.

Internships Opportunities

No, the college doesnot provide any type of internship program. These sometimes are quite irritating during the course.

Placement Experience

0.5

There is very little or no placement opportunities. The college even takes the estimated first salary from the students in order to get them placed. The college even conducts fake placement to make the percentage of students placed high. In terms of placement the college is not good.

College Events

1

Cultural fests, technology​ fest, sports fest, UN council, drama etc are some festivals being organised in the college. College has various sports teams such as basketball team, volleyball team, cricket team, kabaddi team. College also has few pc gaming team such as counter strike, NFS etc

Fee Structure And Facilities

College fees is comparatively low. It costs are around ​4lakh excluding hostel fees and other charges to complete four years in the college. But there are many outstanding fees that are being charged by the college administration. Many hidden fees and charges are applied

Fees and Financial Aid

No, there is no scholarship or loan facility available in college. But the state government provides some scholarship to the under privileged students in order to complete their education

Campus Life

0.5

College has various sports teams such as basketball team, volleyball team, cricket team, kabaddi team. College also has few pc gaming team such as counter strike, NFS etc. Gender ratio is low as very less numver of female candidates opt for technical education.

Hostel Facilities

1

Hostel has two and three bedded rooms with attached bathroom. Furniture provided by the administration include separate bed, study table, chair, and rack. Hostel provide 24hr internet connection and a very bad quality of typically odia food. Mess workers don't understand any language other then odia so communication is very difficult.

Alumni/Alumna

There is zero alumni network and senior students assistance. There is a zero ragging but also the college lacks in any senior junior interaction other then in fests.

Exam Structure

There are three internal exams followed by a semester exam. Teachers are aloowed to do marking in internal exams and papers of semester exam is chrcked by other institution's faculties. Fetching marks in BPUT's semester exams is very difficult and thus very low scores are achieved.

Admission

I took the entrance exam conducted by ojee and appeared in the online counselling and did document verification and took admission using general procedure. The institute is located in bhubaneswar. So it is near a town. So finding the college was not a difficult task.

Faculty

0.5

There are very limited faculties with limited knowledge in the relative field. Only few faculties with over 10 years experience. College principal and the head of department are having good experience in their field. Laboratory assistants are of great help.

Reviewed on Jan 9, 2026(Enrolled 2023)

Course Curriculum Overview:

1. Relevance & Comprehensiveness (Rating: 7/10) The course curriculum at SOA is updated frequently compared to state government colleges. Why I chose this: I was attracted to the fact that the syllabus includes modern electives like Artificial Intelligence, Cloud Computing, and Data Analytics starting from the 3rd year itself, rather than waiting for the final semester. Real-world Prep: The curriculum is designed largely to crack placement interviews. There is a heavy focus on Aptitude and Core Coding subjects (DS/Algo) which helps in getting a job. However, for deep research or R&D roles, the theoretical depth is sometimes lacking. 2. Areas for Improvement Teaching Methods: A major issue is the reliance on PowerPoint Presentations (PPTs). Many faculty members just read off the slides. I would prefer more "Whiteboard Teaching" for mathematical and logic-based subjects. Lab Records: We spend hours handwriting practical records/files which are just copied from the manual. This is a waste of time. This time should be used for live coding projects or hackathons. Outdated Subjects: First-year students (even in CS/IT) are forced to learn heavy mechanical/civil concepts. While basics are good, the depth of these non-core subjects should be reduced. 3. Exam System & Difficulty Frequency: It is quite hectic. We have 2 semesters a year. Each semester has 2 Internal Assessments (Quizzes/Mid-sems) and 1 End-Semester Exam. Basically, you have an exam every 1.5 to 2 months. Difficulty: The exams are Easy to Moderate. It is not very difficult to pass. If you study the "Class Notes" and "Previous Year Questions" for 3-4 days before the exam, you can easily score an 8.0 SGPA. The checking is lenient for passing, but strict if you are aiming for a 9.5+ SGPA.

Placement Experience:

I actually have a very little idea about placements of our uni few seniors says there is not a single company visiting, while few were discussing the highest placement which was something like 20lpa or something,i think companies do visit our campus it may not be much but i have definetly seen one or two companies visiting. I plan to do MBA after my Btech so i am not that serious about whether i am getting placed or not.

Gandhi Engineering College (GEC Autonomous), Bachelor of Technology [B.Tech] (Computer Science and Engineering)
Reviewed on Dec 22, 2025(Enrolled 2023)

Course Curriculum Overview:

I mainly chose this course because the college is Autonomous, which allows them to update the syllabus faster than standard university colleges; seeing subjects like Python and Data Science in the early semesters really influenced my decision. The curriculum is decent for getting placed in service-based companies like TCS or Wipro since they focus heavily on the basics and aptitude, though for high-end product roles or research, you have to put in extra effort yourself. I definitely think they need to reduce the theory load and focus more on practical coding because sometimes it feels like we are just writing assignments instead of building things. Also, the junior faculty rely too much on reading from slides, which really needs to change to make classes more engaging. As for exams, it feels like we are always writing them since we have two internals and one end-semester exam per term. They are moderately difficult and the checking is strict, so you can't slack off, but the tight schedule can get quite exhausting.
