Best option among all private colleges in Odisha. If you are ready to handle tight schedules, pressure, terrible lab grades and can deal with strong and merciless administration, you can join. I didn't have 60% in 12th, so couldn't attend placements, as criteria set by MNCs. So if you don't have that, it's totally useless to take up engineering in Nist or any other college under BPUT. If you consider studying MBA, then remember it provides zero placement. But if you are interested in research and internship opportunities, then I would say it's best in Odisha. Good infrastructure, hostel, labs, indoor stadium. Top professors and good faculty members. Edit : negligible placement opportunities in core sector. Almost nill in mechanical, civil and electrical engineering. But high packages offered from some top it firms like, SAP labs, Huwai and Myntra. 100% placement in computer Science is a myth, even 50% was not achieved during last 5 years.

Aerospace engineering has recently elevated in India. So, we cannot expect much scope as there are hardly any private companies (ex:- Team Indus). Though there are government run companies such as ISRO, DRDO, HAL, etc. But, getting into these companies is a bit challenging as best of best get into such companies. The only thing about Aerospace engineers is to create scope rather than finding scope. In simple words, if you choose this field, start working on your own projects which will act as your helping hands after graduation for getting into the mentioned highly esteemed organizations. There are JVs (joint ventures) coming up in India (Reliance, Mahindra) with the foreign companies (ex:-Lokheed Martin) but it will take some time. When you join this course, think that college won't be of any use regarding placements. One has to work on his own for touching success in this field. Also there are very few private and government colleges offering this course (government- IIT-MADRAS, KANPUR, BOMBAY). Presently, one should surely pursue M.Tech in this field to excel. Best of Luck!
