Q:   How are the hostel facilities at National Institute of Technology Meghalaya?
A:

Hostel facilities are not bad but not too good it depends upon several factors that from where you are if you are from home state Meghalaya itself its quite good but if you are from other states the food be little problem to you, other factors if you consider you will get wi-fi, water purifier is there, geysers are there, electricity is available most of the times. In a room nearly 2-3 peoples are sitting. Currently its operating from a temporary campus so all hostels are not at the same place for every course like Ph.D. M.Sc. B.Tech they all are having different hostels, and they are far apart from each other. But possibly we are shifting to our permanent campus to sohra, hostel facilities will be quite good there but again it will be in out area so you will not be getting any thing out there. I think the worst thing about the hostel is the food especially if you are a vegetarian.

Wonderful campus life, hardworking teachers but reluctant placement cell about masters students.

Faculty: Faculty members are helpful and encourage students. They are quite knowledgeable and they themselves study a lot. They are dedicated to their research study and work which leads to good exposure for students doing M.Sc and Ph.D. under their supervision. Semester exams are not very difficult and regular study for good marks is not a big deal.

Between the mountains with supportive faculty members.

Faculty: Teachers are highly qualified from prestigious institutes. They are also very supportive and kind towards the students. The course is very much similar to NET GATE syllabus. So I can prepare for both while studying for college. College exams are decent, almost everyone clear the paper.

Average placements, new campus, average mess food, overall a very average college.

Faculty: The faculty were good and very helpful. However, we don't expect them to make us industry-ready, and we will have to learn on our own. The curriculum was recently updated to align with the New Education Policy, so there should be some improvement there. The semester exams are very easy, and we can easily maintain a CGPA above 8.5 just by attending lectures regularly and studying a few nights ahead of time.

New campus life starts, but we'll enjoy yourself.

Faculty: The faculty at NIT Meghalaya are nice and friendly. The curriculum is good for branches like EE, ECE, and ME. However, the CSE curriculum is not up to date, and the exams are easier for CSE students than for students in the latest syllabus branches. Overall, academics are not a problem, and students can do well with moderate effort.

We are shifting to our permanent campus.

Faculty: Every faculty on campus is very experienced and educated from IITs. They are post-graduates who teach students the best of topics. Our course curriculum is updated and is very relevant for students. Semester exams are not very difficult to pass, but previous year's papers are very helpful in understanding the type of questions asked.

An average college with natural beauty.

Faculty: Teachers and faculty are supportive, and the teaching quality is good, but if you are aiming for GATE, you have to take courses online, because the level of teaching is not good enough for the GATE exam. Semester exams are not very hard; if you study a bit, it is okay. Passing marks are decided according to student performance.

Dissatisfied by the food in the mess & transportation facilities, placements are not up to the mark.

Faculty: Faculty are helpful, but not everyone is knowledgeable. The teaching quality is not up to the mark; it’s not enough for higher studies entrance examinations. No, they won’t give you everything, and the course curriculum doesn’t include everything from GATE and all entrance examinations. Semester exams are of medium level, and the pass percentage is 90 percent. They mostly give 60 percent from the teaching lectures and modules.

Any way NIT is a NIT.

Faculty: Teachers are well-qualified, helpful, and knowledgeable. Some teachers teach according to competitive examinations and prepare questions accordingly, while some follow the syllabus, which is still helpful for competitive examinations. The course is relevant, and if you study regularly and pay attention in class, then you can easily get a good score in the examination.

Good faculty, infrastructure, and facilities as well as a good senior junior bonding.

Faculty: In NIT Meghalaya, faculty members are helpful and also highly qualified. They are always ready to help students in every field. In NIT Meghalaya, the 50+50+100 rule is being followed for semester exams; from that, 50 marks are from internal evaluation, e.g., class tests, assignments, and viva. 50 marks are for the midterm, and 100 marks are for the endterm examination. Overall, out of 200, the semester has been evaluated.

Faculty: Teachers are very helpful, qualified, and have great knowledge. They try to make students industry-ready. Semester exams have a difficult level. Previously, it had 30% criteria from the 2nd semester; now it has been removed, but 75% attendance criteria are in.

Best of returns, good placement records, and a good coding environment.

Faculty: Faculty are helpful, knowledgeable, and friendly; some faculty members are from abroad. There are so many options in electronics and communication engineering, like VLSI, microwave, computer algebra, wireless system networks, government jobs, etc. Exams are moderately tough; you just have to go through the daily class notes.

Joining NIT Meghalaya for ECE is worth it if you want the prestigious "NIT" tag, are comfortable in a remote/transitional campus, and plan to pivot into IT or software roles.

However if you are interested in core Electronics and Semiconductor jobs, the opportunities and infrastructure may be limited.
