B.Tech

In my personal view, I would prefer NIIT university over all these universities, for the below mentioned reasons. One of the added bonus is that of the NIIT legacy, belonging to the IT background, NIIT proves to be a strong backbone for NU. It has been in the software development and IT for the past few decades. Course structure
NU B Tech in Computer Science with emphasis on Digital Transformation Technologies, is mainly focused on building a strong foundation in mathematical and algorithmic concepts. It has a strong industry linkage to make students industry-ready. The course is well defined and well executed as well. Even if you didnt have computer background, its not that of an issue. There is a brief introductory session where the basis of computer Science is taught. Industry link
One of the advantages and true to the core principles of the university is the strong industry linkage. Industry professionals will work as mentors along with the faculty giving the dual advantage of academic rigor and industry relevance to students. For the batch of 2017 the placement was 100% the highest domestic package was of 11 Lacs per annum (international was 47.95lakh per annum). And the average package was of 4.63 Lacs per annum. Data Science programme
The eighth semester is used for an industry project which can be completed either at the industry site or in the campus under joint supervision of industry and faculty mentors. At the end of the programme, the successful candidates are hired by the industry partner. Currently the industry partner participating in this programme is IBM. Faculty in the B Tech Computer Science and Technology area at NIIT University are from well-known universities like Missouri University of Science and Technology, Roll, Missouri, USA, Ohio University, Athens, Ohio, USA and University of Minnesota at Minneapolis, USA. The faculty comes with rich prior work experience in teaching, research, industry and the government. Their research has been published in several international journals and conference proceedings.

Best option among all private colleges in Odisha. If you are ready to handle tight schedules, pressure, terrible lab grades and can deal with strong and merciless administration, you can join. I didn't have 60% in 12th, so couldn't attend placements, as criteria set by MNCs. So if you don't have that, it's totally useless to take up engineering in Nist or any other college under BPUT. If you consider studying MBA, then remember it provides zero placement. But if you are interested in research and internship opportunities, then I would say it's best in Odisha. Good infrastructure, hostel, labs, indoor stadium. Top professors and good faculty members. Edit : negligible placement opportunities in core sector. Almost nill in mechanical, civil and electrical engineering. But high packages offered from some top it firms like, SAP labs, Huwai and Myntra. 100% placement in computer Science is a myth, even 50% was not achieved during last 5 years.
