IIT Bhubaneswar does not put any such age restrictions over faculty recruitment. Only for the post of Assistant Professor, the applicant must be below 35 years of age. The faculty is recruited mainly on the basis of education and experience. Having a bright extra-curricular experience, and other achievements can be a bonus qualification.

The minimum qualification required in the latest faculty advertisement released by the institute was - Ph.D. in the preceding degree in appropriate branch with first class or equivalent. There should be a consistently very good academic record maintained. They also require evidence of the applicant’s ability to pursue independent high-quality research.

Furthermore, university toppers at Bachelors and Masters Level are encouraged to apply.

The experience level requirements are different for different posts:-

  • For the post of a professor, a minimum of 10 years teaching /research / industrial/ professional experience is expected. Out of these 10 years, at least 4 years should be at the level of Associate Professor in IITs, IISc Bangalore, IIMs, IISERs, or at an institute at the equivalent level in India or abroad.

  • For the post of an associate professor, at least 6 years of teaching/ research/ industrial/ professional experience is expected. Out of these 6 years, at least 3 years should be at the level of Assistant Professor in IITs, IISc Bangalore, IIMs and IISERs or at any institution of comparable standards. Alternatively, experience as a Senior Scientific Officer/Senior Design Engineer in a research organization or industrial enterprise for 3 years is also accepted.

  • For the posts of assistant professors grade-I and Grade-II, relevant experience of minimum 3 years and less than 3 years, respectively, may be considered.

It is good thinking to open a quizzing club in IIT Bhubaneswar as it will be helpful for the students who want to make a career in the government sector. Last year, some quizzing sessions were introduced at Madanpur Hostel in which there are lots of activities to participate and people participated in those activities.

In today’s scenario, most people are preparing for government services jobs majorly UPSC, SSC, Banking, etc, and many others. It is, therefore, a great platform so that the students have the potential to keep the society alive. The most important thing is that it will not only focus on campus placement but they can also learn about clearing government jobs. It will be helpful for each and every student who will enter the college or left college.

What are the things I should carry to IIT Bhubaneswar as a fresher?

AG
Amrita Goel Posted On : August 13th, 2020
Studied at International Institute of Information Technology, Bhubaneswar

Basic amenities like mattresses, cycles, and sim cards and daily usage items like buckets, mugs, hangers, etc. are made available by the campus during the registration days and other necessary items can be bought at the institute’s shopping complex including stationeries. The things that you do need to bring are necessary clothes, shoes, laptop(if you are into coding), electrical appliances like kettles can also be of use to the students, (though it may not be officially allowed by the college authorities). The most important thing is the list of documents that are required at the time of registration. You can also bring your preferred sports equipment for participating in the sports activities of the college along with other extra-curricular activities of the college. Also, most of the students come from different parts of the country so they might take time in getting accustomed to the hostel food, so they can get some homemade storable food (snacks, etc.). However, having said all this the most important thing is to bring the zeal and enthusiasm to begin this new chapter of your life with new friends and in a new environment. Using this zeal to be equally active in extracurricular activities will help you to not just survive but thrive as well.

How are the placements for a dual degree student different from a B.Tech student in IIT Bhubaneswar ?

VS
Vineeta Sinha Posted On : August 14th, 2020
B.Tech Computer Science Indian Institute of Technology Varanasi (2020)

In IIT Bhubaneswar the placement rate of a dual degree program is comparatively lower than that of a B.Tech course. While some companies do not discriminate between the two degrees but there are also some companies that give preference to B.Tech students and offer them a better salary package.

A Dual degree takes 5 years for a student to complete and students who opt for dual degree programs mostly want to pursue research in the field or want to have an academic career rather than working in MNCs. Dual degree programs are more research-oriented and will provide you with further knowledge about the subject.

Students in the IIT Bhubaneswar are missing lot facilities. They don't have proper ground to play and people say it is less than an average college. Is this true?

HA
Harish Arya Posted On : August 14th, 2020
Studied Bachelor of Technology in Electrical Engineering at Indian Institute of Technology, Bhubaneswar (2021)

IIT Bhubaneswar is among the second generation of IIT and it was established in 2008. Despite being a newly established institute, IIT Bhubaneswar is doing quite well in terms of academics and placements. According to 2020 NIRF Rankings. IIT Bhubaneswar was ranked at 22nd among the engineering colleges in India.

It is a new IIT and still in the developing phase, so it does not have the infrastructure as the old well-established IITs like Delhi, Bombay, etc. IIT Bhubaneswar as a campus is much better than any other new IITs but it does lack a proper playground and the students have to depend on the IMMT grounds which are only open for weekends. It also does not have some facilities like few labs for the school of Mechanical Engineering. But that does not mean IIT Bhubaneswar is any less. IIT Bhubaneswar is a new establishment and it will take some more years for this institute to come at the same level as the old IITs.

IIT Bhubaneswar also offers many facilities, for example, it has a Design and Innovation Centre (DIC) which is funded by the Ministry of Human Research Development (MHRD). Students work on cultural programs, fests, around the year to liven up the culture of IIT. IIT Bhubaneswar may not have all the facilities like the old IITs but they are trying their best to improve the IIT status.

Is CSE in ISM Dhanbad better than IIT Bhubaneswar?

EB
Eshita Bakshi Posted On : August 14th, 2020
B.Tech Computer Science Indian Institute of Technology Bhubaneswar (2018)

ISM Dhanbad is one of the oldest colleges in India with experienced faculty and a diverse curriculum. The excellent research facilities and the established alumni network coupled with the amazing facilities add to a great student culture existing in the campus. Moreover, in comparison, IIT Bhubaneswar was just established 12 years ago in 2008, and it has shifted to its main campus just a few years ago so as compared to IIT(ISM) Dhanbad it lacks a little behind in infrastructure.

Coming to the placement, both colleges being IITs have an excellent record in the CSE department. Same or similar firms come to both the campuses for placements however the packages and the number of offers made by the firms are significantly higher in IIT(ISM) Dhanbad. For eg., Goldman Sachs in 2018 placed 4 offers in IIT Bhubaneswar as compared to 10 in IIT(ISM) Dhanbad although the average package offered by them in both the colleges was the same at 31 LPA. However, Samsung R and D offered made 10 offers with the average package being 16 LPA at IIT(ISM) Dhanbad and in IIT Bhubaneswar they ended up making 2 offers with the average package being 10 LPA. According to 2019 placement highlights in IIT(ISM) Dhanbad there were 90.23% placements from the CSE department with average CTC 39.5 LPA. Whereas, in IIT Bhubaneswar CSE department had 100% placement with an average of 11.44 LPA.

Therefore, considering all the factors at the moment IIT Dhanbad will be the better option than IIT Bhubaneswar for CSE. However, the speed at which IIT Bhubaneswar is growing it can also be considered as an alternative.
