NIFT

Nift is well-known everywhere. In Ranchi also maximum people don't know about Nift. According to me there may be following reason:
Lack of publicity. Low strength: In Nift, the overall strength is around 1000. It is less than any private school. Branches:In Nifft there is only two branches that is metallurgy and manufacturing. Maximum people have lack of interest towards these branches. It's name:It is not popular due to its name also. When we say Nift, maximum people thinks it is national institute of fashion technology. Still I strongly believe that one day Ranchi will be known for Nift because we have very talented student. Nift also gives good rankers in GATE every year. Students have also showed there talent in SAE and many field. Good luck Niftians.
