The following are some instructions about the previous posting titled "Orissa engineering colleges in the AICTE list and their number of seats (July 12 2007)."
It is from http://www.aicte.ernet.in/approval/engg_LIST/Orissa.doc (as of July 12 2007) reached via http://www.aicte.ernet.in/app_inst_new.htm after clicking the scrolling sentence in AICTE web page that says "Approval status 2007-08 as on 05-07-2007." The Orissa JEE counseling brochure has a few other colleges that are not in this list. For BPUT to put them in the Orissa JEE counseling brochure these colleges must have some sort of approval. Beyond that I can not guess why they are not in the latest AICTE list. Sometimes AICTE has multiple lists in its web pages. If people have doubts about these colleges they should ask BPUT to give them some written guarantee/proof regarding these colleges when counseling or during admission.
The last two columns of that article denote "Existing intake for 2006-07" and "Approved intake for 2007-08." Please note that they are not properly aligned. (I am having problems with the editor when copying and pasting from word documents.)

Samaja has advertisements by the following two engineering colleges. Neither of them appear in the OJEE 2007 counseling brochure. (See our earlier posting on this.) One of them mentions receipt of AICTE LOI.
(Thanks to reader Parashar Das for the tip.)

It seems the Orissa AIEEE site is updated and has now information for 2007. Unlike last year a larger number of colleges seem to be listed there. (Thanks to an alert reader, comment 58 in this article, for pointing this out.)

(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.)
Orissa JEE counseling brochure is now available in the web. Unfortunately it does not give any historical data regarding which ranks were able to get which branch and which college in the previous years. In comparison with the 2006 counselling brochure, the 2007 counseling brochure lists four new engineering colleges:
- Gandhi Institute of Technology, Bhubaneswar [GIF] (this is besides the preexisting Gandhi Engineering College, Bhubaneswar [GEC]; GIET Gunupur [GIT]; and GITA Bhubaneswar [GIB])
- Nalanda institute of Technology, Bhubaneswar [NIT]
- Rajdhani Engineering College, Bhubaneswar [REC]
- Sundergarh Engineering College, Sundergarh [SUN]
and does not include
- Institute of Textile Technology, Choudwar [ITT]

Only NIT Rourkela improved its ranking from 2006; ranking of others have dropped.
NIT Rourkela also features in the top five engineering colleges in the eastern region. They are:
- (1) IIT Kharagpur
- (6) IIT Guwahati
- (14) Jadavpur University Engineering College
- (16) NIT Rourkela
- (19) BIT Ranchi
As always, these are just one ranking.

The Orissa JEE has come out with an additional list and ranking of students beyond the initial 21455 ranks. See details in the Orissa JEE page. Here is what it says:
New Indian Express has a nice report on this with additional information.

Update: The IIT JEE 2008 counseling brochure is at http://www.jee.iitb.ac.in/CBrochure.pdf.
The 2007 IIT JEE Counseling brochure is available at http://www.jee.iitb.ac.in/2007/CBJEE_2007.pdf. Using it one can get a rough idea of ones chances based on their JEE rank. I wish and hope BPUT will create such a counseling brochure for Orissa JEE with prior year’s information.

The Orissa JEE result is out. Following are some links that may come in handy.

June 11 edition of Outllook has rankings of engineering colleges, medical colleges, and some specialty colleges. Only two Orissa colleges appear in those rankings. In the ranking of govt. engineering colleges NIT Rourkela appears at number 28 with a total score of 1437. In the ranking of private engineering colleges KIIT Bhubaneswar appears at 37 with a total score of 1073. If one were to combine both rankings then NIT Rourkela would be 32 as four private coleges have a higher score than NIT Rourkela. In the 2006 Outlook ranking of top 100 engineering colleges NIT Rourkela was 34 and KIIT was ranked 100. So NIT Rourkela improved by two positions. To figure out if KIIT improved its ranking one has to count how many private colleges were there in the 2006 top 100 ranking. A quick count, which may be slightly inaccurate as it is not easy to identify all private colleges in a list, shows that in 2006 KIIT was 50 among the private colleges; so it seems to have improved its ranking by 13 positions.

Many may not know that there are two state government funded and one central government funded management-n-IT institutes in Orissa. (Here, we are not counting the management programs at the universities or the one proposed at NIT Rourkela.) The central govt funded management institute is Madhusudan institute of co-operative management. It offers MBA and DCA and many certificate courses. Following is a quote from its "About Us" pages.
The Madhusudan Institute of Co-operative Management (MICM) is one of the premier Management Institute of the state established in the year 1955-56. The MICM is functioning under the aegis of National Council for Co-operative Training (NCCT), New Delhi, being financed by the Ministry of Agriculture, (Department of Co-operation) Government of India. The basic objective of the Institute is to develop human resources for efficient management by organising various management training programmes.
The two state government funded management-n-IT institutes are:
- Center for IT Education (CITE), Bhubaneswar, a wing of Orissa State Electronics Development Corp. (govt.)
- Institute of Management & Information Technology, (Formerly College of Accountancy & Management), Cuttack – 753 007 Dist: Cuttack. (govt) (location)

Until recently NIT Rourkela and UCE Burla were the only places in Orissa that offered M.Tech programs in engineering disciplines. Now several other colleges also offer M.Tech programs. BPUT has advertised for these programs and that ad contains the full list, except for IIIT, Utkal, KIIT and NIT RKL. We reproduce that list for convenience. In Bhubaneswar area:
- IIIT Bhubaneswar – Computer Science (60) – added on 2nd August 2007
- Utkal University – Computer Science (30)

During the last two years I ranked various engineering colleges in Orissa based on the student preferences during BPUT’s counselling. In the following I will list the top 10 for 2006 and 2005. However, I must stress that proper rankings can only be done by using several parameters: student preference, opinions of companies, faculty quality, facilities etc. So my ranking based on only one criteria is flawed. But thats all the data that I have handy. So don’t take this ranking as gospel. Please use other channels to get more information on various colleges, such as their web pages.
2006 Top 10: (complete ranking with details on methodology) Not Considered: NIT Rourkela and KIIT Bhubaneswar as their 2006 admission is not through BPUT.
