What is an honest review of SOA University Bhubaneswar?

As per our research, students and alumni say that SOA University is average. The infrastructure is good but this college is average in terms of education quality. Students may expect some practical and industrial exposure. Events and everything are not that disappointing. Some of the faculties are very nice but again the placement cell is below average. The main problem here lies with the placement cell.

Should one join SOA University Bhubaneswar for BTech?

Based on our research, students and alumni prefer that candidates visit SOA Bhubaneswar on a working day and choose for themselves. However, they also highlight the following points:Make sure that your academic scores are above 60%. 90% of the companies ask for a percentage above 60.If you are a computer science freak, then you should consider this institution as the companies which visit SOA are generally software companies. Also there are more opportunities for Computer science students compared to others.The College lacks a bit of proper management to take quick decisions at times.They always publish the notice at the end moment, so one needs to have some patience.ITER has the biggest fully air conditioned library in the region.You would love the infrastructure and the facilities they provide. The library has an E-resource centre where more than 200 computers with high speed internet are there.You can go and explore anything. Two floors with a capacity of more than 500+ students are there for self study.The Hostels are good. Some hostels have 4 beds in a single room and some have 3. But hostel provides 24*7 electricity, internet and water.The semester examinations are easy and you can easily score 8+ CGPA if you study a day before the examination.

How are the placement opportunities at Siksha 'O' Anusandhan University?

The university does everything it can to help students meet the standards of different companies.

Review for Soa national institute of law. Read this before taking admission

Likes

The students here are very friendly and you don't feel discrimination as many outsider study here so the interaction and campus life is good.
The faculty here are excellent there teaching methods are really nice and they are experienced too with degree from NLUs or other reputed law college.
Infrastructure is quite good. You get a big library with almost everybook and ever english newspaper daily. Every classroom has AC so it's good.

Dislikes

The campus is located in a village area where you need to walk around 2-3 km to get some good food.
The campus is very small which just have college building and nothing else not even a playground.
You will always get suprise notice of exams, reopening of college and everything. The management is not good everything here is delayed and not seen seriously.

Internships Opportunities:

Our college usually provide internship for 3rd year to 5th year students. And the internship are provided on merit basis only. The position is like a law intern only under the company. Like they provided internship under vigilance academy for 3rd to 5th year students.

There are no holiday or half day on Saturdays

Student Snaps:

Internships Opportunities:

There are good opportunities for internships as we have a program called LEX CONSELIUM that is held every year where companies are called to give us an introduction about themselves and how they hier students like us and what qualities we must have to sit on a interview. Companies like Infotech, Wipro, etc. come for campusing and hier students. The students are also provided with internships from the placement cell if they are interested every year. The students are also free to choose their own internships and go for them but with proper permission from the head of our placement cell.

ITER,Siksha 'O' 'Anusandhan pros and cons

Likes

There is minimal kind of ragging in this college , like you can think no ragging happens here . seniors are too much supportive here.
There is basketball court in the campus also a seperate sports complex is present in the college where you can play badminton table tennis etc.
Social interaction is quite good in this college , you can meet amazing people in this college .

Dislikes

The most disliked thing is there is no diversity in this college , here you will find 80 percent student are odia, which are mostly local or those who have houses 200 to 300 km from bhubaneswar.
New syllabus as per the current industry situation could be added in the syllabus
College should improve its management , like if i want something to be done no officials can guide you correctly where to go to solve our issue for some case..

Internships Opportunities:

There are not much internship facilities in our college . For internships you must apply online.There come some companies for interships such as Samsung which offer 1 lakh per month but it only takes around 5 students from the college . SO for internship opportunities you must apply online.
