Our college has a good and favorable environment for good quality of studying.
Placements: This year, the placement rates for students at my college are impressive compared to previous years. I am from the ECE department, and companies are seeking skilled students rather than just those with good CGPAs. VLSI skills require a considerable amount of coding ability, and the focus is on the core domain of the department.
Infrastructure: I am a hosteler, and being a hosteler the quality of the room is quite good not much. If we compare it with the other private colleges the infrastructure quality needs to be improved as soon as possible. The size of the rooms is not enough for 2 people.
Faculty: Faculty members are good, and the professors are highly qualified and knowledgeable at their equal level. No compromises are there in education. The exams are conducted at very high security. There are negligible amount of chance of cheating in college during exams. Highly range jammers are used during the exam conducting.
Other: I feel like NERIST is mostly likely focused on the development of the core branches but I would appreciate the college if they provide more opportunities to the other branch students.

I am satisfied with the things I am getting in my college. Especially for the placements.
Placements: In my college, there are ample placement opportunities for Mechanical Department students. Most companies, such as Oil India Limited, L&T, and TCS, recruit here. The average package is between 10 and 12 LPA, which is good for new engineering graduates. All final-year students are actively seeking jobs.
Infrastructure: Our departments, library, classrooms, and labs have good infrastructure. The Wi-Fi system offers 24/7 service. Hostel facilities are also decent, and for sports and games, there is a football turf, a volleyball court, and a gymnasium with all the necessary equipment. The mess food is quite okay—not particularly good or bad. 
Faculty: Our faculty members are well-informed and educated. They graduated from various colleges, including IIT Guwahati and IIT Bombay, among others. They possess strong teaching skills. The semester exams are easy if any student attends classes regularly. Teachers assign presentations.
Other: I have chosen mechanical engineering as my ambition is in aeronautics and aircraft design. If more instructors were available for our software learning or structural design, it would be more beneficial. Our college hosts mainly two events: one is RACAF (college fest) and the other is SYNERGY (sports event). We enjoy them a lot. E

Good, could be better. But it's getting better day by day.
Placements: Placement is the most difficult thing in life because you don't know what you are going through or how you are feeling or what you are doing or whatever it takes you don't let me and you don't know how.
Infrastructure: Our college has free Wi-Fi and smart classroom. They provide a bus for traveling from one classroom to another. Classrooms are good. There is a football field, and the environment is superb. Come here, it's cheap and very nice. The best thing is that we can go back and forth from our institute.
Faculty: Teachers are good and helpful. We should join this institute for easy scoring, and getting a placement for this one will make you a millionaire in a year. You can earn money for yourself, and earn money for your family members and friends.

Strong faculty, Industry- Relevant Curriculum, Vibrant Campus.
Placements: 60 percent of students were placed from my department. The highest package offered in my department was 1,200,000 LPA, and the lowest package was 300,000 LPA. The average package was above 400,000 LPA. Top recruiting companies were Tata Projects, L&T, and Vedanta.
Infrastructure: Most departments are equipped with high-speed Wi-Fi to ensure seamless internet connectivity for research. Classrooms are typically equipped with multimedia facilities like projectors and smart boards. University libraries usually have a wide range of textbooks.
Faculty: Our college has dedicated faculty who are approachable and willing to assist students. The faculty are typically well-qualified, with many holding advanced degrees (Masters or Ph.D.) in their respective fields. Our college has two exams: one mid-semester and one end-semester.
Other: The batch I am referring to consists of those who joined the course in 2021 and will graduate in 2025. I chose this course because of a strong interest in mechanical engineering coupled with a desire to pursue a career in the automotive industry.

Overall Experience Was Best of My Knowledge: Great Campus Life and Very Good Environment.
Placements: Above 75% of students got placed last year. The highest package offered to students was 18 LPA by Power Grid, while the average package was 9.9 LPA. The top recruiting companies included Vedanta, Tata Projects, Oil, and Power Grid. More than 75% of students secured internships at Tata Projects and Vedanta.
Infrastructure: My department is Electrical Engineering, and we have all possible labs, a library, and classrooms equipped with smart boards and projectors. There is 24/7 Wi-Fi availability in our department. In our hostel, we also have Wi-Fi, a common room for group interactions, various games courts, and a garage. The mess provides good quality food. On campus, there is an NHU (Nerist Health Unit) where a doctor is available 24/7.
Faculty: The teachers in our department are very helpful and qualified, with all of them holding doctorates in their subjects. The course curriculum is relevant and provides various industrial training opportunities for students. They plan trips to visit nearby industries for training. We have exams in one semester, including mid-semester and end-semester assessments. The semester exams are quite tough, requiring a minimum score of 35% to pass.
Other: I chose Electrical Engineering because of my interest in electrical things, and there are great job and placement opportunities in this field. I wish our college had better transportation services and improved practical classes, as some equipment is quite old. Our college holds many events every year, such as the cultural fest called RACAF and the sports event called Synergy, along with various other cultural events. The campus crowd is fascinating, and the connectivity among different departments and classrooms is excellent. The atmosphere of our campus is beautiful, surrounded by greenery that provides fresh air and a pleasant environment. NCC and NSS are additional extracurricular activities available on campus.

More or less, the college is great.
Placements: So far, there have been very few placements in my department. The top companies are Amul and Nestle, but they really don't want to come so far away from the main land for recruitment. So the campus selection is really low. But the TNP cell is working hard on this.
Infrastructure: The lab and the infrastructure are really good; we have all the equipment that we need for our business, whether in a farm lab or a food lab. The medical facility is also good; there is everything available for indoor and outdoor games, and the Wi-Fi is also great.
Faculty: Faculty members are also good. The teaching quality is also good; we have specialized labs and lab attendees for every subject. In the farm machinery domain, we are industry-ready, but due to the scarcity of faculty in the food domain, we have less knowledge.
Other: The campus life is really great; we have a great ambience, and the campus is really silent. A cultural festival like Sonabyss Racaff is the oldest cultural festival in Arunachal Pradesh, and a technical festival like Shristi is really good for us.
