NIT Silchar - Overview from the perspective of a CSE student.

Fom second year onwards, the course curriculum becomes more relevant to the degree. Although, I think it should be specific from 1st year only. We have to do mechanical labs even though it will not have any positive impact on our career.

All the professors are extremely good in what they do. But, on top of that some of the professors are very nice. One of our professor, Dr. Ripon Patgiri is one of the professor, whom I admire a lot. He is by far the best professor I've met. Talking of exams, there is Midsem, Minor and Endsem exams. In the first year, students of all the branches have common subjects and from 2nd year, students are segregated.

There is only one way to get in for B.Tech. programmes, which is through JEE (Joint Entrance Exam) Mains. There is no Group Discussion or Interview. You have to register for counselling through JoSSA, and when this college is alloted to you, you can join.
