Like every other college, VSSUT Burla has its own set of cons some of which have been mentioned below
Hope you get a fair idea of the cons at VSSUT, Burla.
VSSUT is a great place for UG studies. But a degree from this college isn’t sufficient in most cases. So it is usually better to opt for higher studies at a prestigious college.
Make sure to go for a branch that interests you. This does play a huge role in deciding your career prospects.
VSSUT, formerly known as UCE, Burla is one of the oldest institutions in Odisha. It has churned out many successful engineers who hold leadership positions in top MNCs. It provides endless opportunities to learn, have fun, and participate in extracurricular activities. However, it suffers from a location disadvantage being located in the western side of the state. It has a huge lush green 300-acre campus.
Here is a detailed review of the college
In a nutshell, VSSUT is one of the best places to pursue a career in engineering as it provides a plethora of opportunities
Here are a few helpful tips for first-year students of VSSUT that would make their lives better and easier
Lastly, enjoy your college life because this is going to be the best part of your life.
Here are some tips to score an 8+ CGPA during your B.Tech at VSSUT-
Maintain a good CGPA because it is very important for placements and higher studies (MBA, M.Tech, etc). Only the top 20 students from each branch are deemed eligible for the written test of L&T. To be one of those students, you’ll have to get 8.8+ CGPA in your B.Tech.
VSSUT is an alma mater to a number of successful personalities. Here is a list of a few, along with their achievements-
These are just a few of the many great people who received valuable education at VSSUT.
No, VSSUT is not a tier 1 university and neither are IITs and NITs. One needs to understand the fact that the Tier-1 and Tier-2 system is relevant in the US and not in India. It is a classification based on internationally competitive research outcomes of a university. Indian universities don’t come under this category yet. In India, tier-1 means a college with excellent placements. In reality, very few of our universities fare well when their research outcome is considered. Also, India does not have any specific body to provide ranking based on international competitive research outcomes. The NIRF ranks colleges generally.
One also needs to consider the fact that India is a developing country with limited resources. The budget for research is less compared to foreign universities.
It can thereby be concluded that VSSUT University is not a tier-1 university but it is one of the best institutions in Odisha.
VSSUT is one of the oldest engineering colleges in India and the most reputed one in the state of Odisha. Its rich legacy and elaborate alumni network sets it apart from other colleges. Here is what makes VSSUT worth pursuing Engineering in
VSSUT Burla is therefore one of the best engineering colleges in the country and the above points prove so.
Electronics, although a vast branch has limited scope in colleges like VSSUT. So, I would not recommend you to take ETC in VSSUT.
You will face many problems, especially in practicals. The lab equipment is outdated hindering the practicals. Most students copy from each other and rarely do students solve a practical question on their own. The professors are also underqualified so your only saviors here are the toppers or the geeks.
The grading is pathetic and some professors don’t give marks unless they know you personally. Students are required to wear formal and clean shaved faces for the next 4 years, unlike the students of other branches.
The lab records will be disapproved and you will have to write it again and again. The students of this branch get back in their exams frequently. The fault is in the faculty members and yet no action is taken against them.
Although I recommend you not to join this branch, you can consider talking to the seniors once before making the final decision.
