2007 ranking of Orissa Engineering colleges that participated in BPUT counseling – solely based on student preferences

August 7th, 2007

((Update on June 17 2008:  For guidance on what you can get with your Orissa JEE rank in 2008, please see https://www.orissalinks.com/archives/1185 I do not have more information than that.)

Continuing with our methodology, and solely based on the student preferences in the GE (general) category,  we develop a ranking below. Our methodology is we compare when the various branches of the colleges get finished.  For example below when we write CET (8, 8, 12, 12, 16) it means that two of the CET branches were all finished in the GE category by the ranks 800, two by 1200 and one by 1600. We will use the first three numbers unless it becomes necessary to go beyond that.

• 1. UCE Burla (8,8,12,12,16)
• 1. CET Bhubaneswar  (8,8,12,12,16)
• 2. ITER Bhubaneswar (16,16,16)
• 3. Silicon Bhubaneswar (16, 20, 20)
• 4. CV Raman Bhubaneswar (20,24,28)
• 5. NIST Berhampur (24, 24, 28)
• 6. GITA  Bhubaneswar(28,28,32)
• 7. Orissa Eng College Bhubaneswar (28, 28, 36)
• 7. IGIT Sarang (20,28,45)
• 8. College of Eng Bhubaneswar (36,36,41)
• 9. Gandhi Eng College Bhubaneswar (36,41,45)
• 10. Krupajala Bhubaneswar (45,45,45)
• 10. Trident Bhuabneswar (41, 45, 50)
• 11. East Bhubaneswar (45,55,66)
• 11. Gandhi Inst for Tech Bhubaneswar (50,50,60)
• 11. GIET Gunupur (50,50,60)
• 12. Orissa school of mining eng Keonjhar (45, 55, 117)
• 13. NMIET Bhubaneswar (66, 72, 78)
• 14. DRIEMS Dhenkanala(72,72,100)
• 15. Konark Bhubaneswar (78, 78, 117)
• 15. Koustuva Bhubaneswar (78, 100, 100)
• 15. Mahavir Bhubaneswar (78, 84, 100)
• 15. Synergy Dhenkanal (78, 84, 100)
• 16. Nalanda Bhubaneswar (84, 84, 100)
• 17. Rajdhani Bhubaneswar (84, 100, 100)
• 18. Roland Berhampur (84,100, 108)
• 19. Techno Bhubaneswar (84, 100, 117)
• 19. Padmanav Rourkela (100,100,100)
• 20. Ajay Binay Cuttack (100,100,117)
• 21. Ghanashyam Hemalata  Puri(100,108,136)
• 22. Jagannath Cuttack (108,117,147)
• 22. Bhadrakh (117,117, 136)
• 23. JITM Parlakhemundi (117,126,147)
• 24. Inst of Adv Rayagada (117,136,159)
• 24. Sanjay Memorial Berhampur (117,147,159)
• 24. Purushottam Rourkela (126,126,136)
• 26. Balasore (136,136,159)
• 27. Seemanta Mayurbhanj (159, 159, 186)
• 28. Padmashree Baragarh (172,172,200)
• 29. Majighariani Rayagada (172,200,200)
• 30. Satyasai Balasore (159, 172, 999)
• 31. Samanta Chandra Sekhar Koraput (186,999,999)
• 32. Gopal Krishna Jeypore (999,999,999)

The colleges that are missing from the above are NIT Rourkela, and KIIT. I consider NIT Rourkela to currently be the best in Orissa. I would slot KIIT around ITER and Silicon.

Outlook for 2008-2009:

Now that ITER’s parent organization Siksha O Anusandhan has become a deemed university, ITER may opt out of Orissa JEE and/or 2008 BPUT counseling.

In 2008 and 2009 there would be several new colleges. Among them three of them, if they get their approvals in time, are going to make a splash because of the people involved in the making of those colleges. They are:

1. Bhubaneswar Institute of Technology: This College will be located at or adjacent to Infocity II. Its founders include three Orissa origin professors in the US (Prof. Rabi Mohapatra, Prof. Laxmi Bhuyan, Prof. Prashant Mohapatra) and high level people in WIPRO (in India) and Microsoft (USA). Watch out for this college. It should leap to the top3-5 in Orissa within a year or two of its starting.
2. Temple City Institute of Technology: This college is being founded by one of the founders of KIIT and a US software professional who also gave some initial funding to KIIT. This college is also supported by at least one North America based professor (not me). Again based on the track record of the founders this should become a good college.
3. Indus College of Engineering:  We discussed this college earlier. This college is being established by a trust led by Dr. Ravi Reddy. Dr. Reddy is a B.Tech from IIT Kharagpur and a Ph.D from University of Houston, USA. He was one of the main person at NIST, Berhampur. Based on this information, I think this will also become a good  engineering college.
4. ASBM institute of Technology: Newsreports mention that ASBM plans to establish an engineering college in 2008. Based on ASBM’s track record this should become a good engineering college too.
