My college experience and my opinion.

Faculty: The teachers have good quality teaching skills, and some teachers help students related to placement. Those who are weak in communication and academic performance get guidance. The teachers prepare students before placement for all companies. The semester exams are not very difficult to pass; most regular students pass the semester exams.

The real truth of Siksha 'O' Anusandhan.

Faculty: The faculty here mostly young blood. All the teachers are highly skilled, but due to a lack of experience, they fumble most of the time, but it is acceptable because who am I to judge anyone. The course curriculum here is quite helpful for my field and helps me to do more analysis about agriculture and related topics. Mostly, my course can be completed through practical study, and I have a good number of teachers to help me understand the topics of agriculture. The semester exams are held twice ...

The originality of Siksha 'O' Anusandhan.

Faculty: My branch faculty members are very intelligent and simple in their lives. They are all highly qualified in their field. Most of the teachers prefer visual education for better understanding. The course curriculum is pretty acceptable. To be industry-ready, you must learn a little extra from outside books and papers. The semester exams are a bit tricky, and it is mostly application-based. The pass percentage is quite impressive because all students are clever and all do smart work along with hard...

College is good. You can take admission and have a good infrastructure.

Faculty: Curriculum is good and has developed a modern syllabus. B.Tech in AI ML got Python and Java both languages. Students can get a great idea from this syllabus. Teaching is good but the number of faculty is not that good at teaching although every teacher has graduated from many great colleges.

The course curriculum is engaging and keeps you busy most of the time. The semester exams are not very difficult but are quite tricky. They help develop your brain for upcoming challenges.

The reality of the inside life of SOA University.

Faculty: The curriculum that we study here is very relevant to the practical world. As for my branch, it is quite practical to know from the texts that we read here. The curriculum over here makes the students ready to implement in the practical and real world, also. The semester exams are not too difficult, but it is tricky and test your ultimate mind, and they help you to be smarter.

My experience so far has been good for learning and growth.

Faculty: Teachers I've had are mostly great, they actually know their stuff and are pretty helpful about helping you out if you're stuck on something. The syllabus feels up-to-date and prepares you for what companies are looking for. The Exams are challenging but fair, you can't pass by memorising everything. Basically, if you show up to class and study a bit, you'll do fine.

Good college in Odisha, ITER.

Faculty: The quality of teachers and their knowledge is very important in the IT sector. To be honest, our college provides the best in class. The faculty-to-student ratio is quite impressive, as SOA has more than 500 faculty members. There are only two exams. They are mid-semester exams and end-of-semester exams. The mid-semester exams are usually tougher than the end-of-semester exams. Around 20% of students fail to clear each exam. The course curriculum is a little old, but it is being updated as of 2...
