What are the disadvantages of NIT Trichy?
Posted On - Apr 13, 2021The disadvantages faced by NIT Trichy students because of its remote location and hot climate are known to many so I will talk about issues no one has yet commented on.
- North Indians face major language barriers here, especially with shopkeepers, teachers, and peers. They are least interested in learning the language of the locals.
- NIT Trichy does not offer any effective treatment for the street dogs that roam inside the campus. You can find dogs everywhere like hostels, canteens, and messes. They should either be sent to the forest authority or should be treated fairly. Many times I have seen dogs die because of malnutrition.
- Students hailing from Telangana face major ragging issues.
- NIT Trichy has no amusement places nearby where you can hang out with friends.
I hope the administration takes measures against these issues.
NIT Trichy has a locational disadvantage. It is located far away from the city. Recruiting companies have to spend around 3-4 days hiring students from NIT Trichy. This usually puts NIT Trichy off the recruitment list for some companies. Also, the start-up culture isn’t quite developed at NIT Trichy.
Other than these minor disadvantages, NIT Trichy is a fairly good college with decent academics, facilities, and placements.
Although NIT Trichy is one of the best institutes in India for Engineering, there are some disadvantages of the institute, which is quite common in many other institutes too. The points below give a brief overview of some of those disadvantages.
- Location: The campus is situated far away from the popular cities in Tamil Nadu. Other NITs, like NIT Warangal and NIT Surat, are located in prime locations. Recruits have to travel a lot, even more than a day in total, to travel to NIT Trichy for recruitment. Due to this, some companies don’t visit the campus for placement, but the institute does give a lot of effort, and students are sent to offices for the recruitment process.
- Hostel Mess: The breakfast is said to be quite good, with several options including idlis, Vadas, sambhar, etc. Also, the lunch is quite sufficient in amount and variety, so it is not a problem. But for the dinner, there is a lot of crowd in every mess and food court. The quality of food provided is not quite fresh. Getting a soft roti or a crisp dosa, along with a spicy sambhar is quite rare in the hostels.
- Distance from city: NIT Trichy is 25 km away from Trichy. Traveling 2 hours for a movie, shopping, or just casual eating at some dessert place is quite hectic and discouraging.
Although there are disadvantages, there are a few hundred advantages of being in NIT Trichy, which when compared submerges the disadvantages deep under the sea.
