The campus life of IGIT Sarang is not that great. So, it is better to keep the standards low. The campus is around 379 acres. The residential part of the campus is covered by 179 acres, situated nearby the Brahmani river. The additional 200 acres are left unused for future expansion projects. The experience of students in the initial years is discussed below.
Life in IGIT Sarang is not easy, yet it is fun.
Yes, IGIT Sarag has a uniform system. Boys need to wear a pair of Gray trousers and a Sky-blue full-length shirt. The girls’ uniform is Salwar Kameez. The Kameez has the same pattern as the shirt and the shalwar is Gray-colored. IGIT is strict regarding the dress code and students need to adhere to the uniform system.
You probably won’t find a detailed account of the life of a girls hostel at IGIT Sarang anywhere. But, I can definitely give you a brief insight of the same, since I have few friends at the institute.
Hope this gave you an idea about the life at girl hostel at IGIT Sarang
Experiencing a stay at different hostels is necessary to compare the hostel food of IGIT Sarang. In terms of food, IGIT Sarang serves the best taste on the platter.
The food is available at affordable rental rates and serves better quality than any other college hostel. You will love the food served here, once you get used to it.
If you are a girl, you have to adjust till 3rd year. For the first 2 years, you will be staying in Rohini Bhawan and the food there is not as good as Prithvi Bhawan. However, you can order in from Jagannath, Brundaban, cafeteria, KFC.
If you are a boy there are various options in or out of campus. You only need to explore.
The stream in which you wish to make your career is more relevant than knowing about the college that you choose, as the chief problem is the stream that you choose.
As per the listed choices, it would be better to choose Computer Science from Silicon BBS over Chemical at IGIT. The reason is that the faculty of IGIT Chemical engineering is not very impressive. Most of the teachers there are recent graduates recruited due to a lack of qualified faculties.
As the campus of IGIT is isolated from the town, very few companies visit there for the campus whereas, Silicon has a location advantage. It is more like a school as it has strict attendance rules. However, their placement record definitely makes up for it.
One of my friends graduated from IGIT this year. Here are a few things that I got to know about the Mechanical branch at IGIT.
Placements:
According to the statistics the placement sector is down in almost all colleges of Odisha. Seeing on the placement statistics of past years hardly a core company came for placement in IGIT.
This same situation can be seen in colleges like VSSUT and CET too. But they arrange some off-campus for mechanical students. Going in other campus placement is good in CET followed by VSSUT than IGIT. But that doesn’t make a big difference. Placement is almost the same in these colleges for core companies.
About Mechanical Branch:
The mechanical branch is one of the most strict branches of the institute.
The quality of education is average.
It will be better if you opt for CET followed by VSSUT and then IGIT. CET/VSSUT does call mass recruiters as compared to IGIT. IT jobs play the role of saviors since the number of core jobs is quite less. and are not likely to get a boost in near future.
A friend of mine completed BTech in Electronics and Telecom from IGIT. Here are some of the things that he shared about the institute.
From what I heard, there is not too much pressure from Teachers. You are free to do anything. So, make the most of your time at the institute.
For CSE, Silicon Institute of Technology is the best option among these. It offers good academics in the software domain. It has a good placement record, especially for branches like CSE, and ECE. TCS, Wipro, Infosys, and Byju’s are some of the major recruiters that take part in Silicon Institute of Technology placements. As per the placement highlights, the average CTC for the CSE branch is around INR 3.4 LPA.
VSSUT Burla is a much better option than IGIT Sarang. VSSUT, Burla - Being the Oldest engineering institute in the state, has some of the best faculty, a huge library, and a wide-spread Alumni net.
Discussed below are a few important points about VSSUT Burla.

One of my cousins was in the same situation, whether to choose VSSUT or IGIT, and he chose VSSUT. If you look up the statistics you will clearly see VSSUT is much better than IGIT.
Both EE at IGIT and IT at VSSUT have the same admission process through JEE mains followed by counseling and interview. IGIT has more seats for EE than for IT in VSSUT so maybe getting admissions in IGIT will be easy in comparison to VSSUT. The placement rate is also good for both universities.

Both the universities are good choices for the above courses. Both courses have the same admission process among universities. The placement rate is quite better for IGIT Sarang than VSSUT Burla but if we talk about which one is affordable and has good quality teaching then VSSUT should be the choice.
