Admission process in NIST

Candidates who have completed 10 +2 with Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics can apply for B.Tech courses. Selection is based on candidate’s performance in Joint Entrance Exam conducted by Government of Orissa (OJEE)/AIEEE. From next year onwards AIEEE score may be substituted by ISEET score. Admissions to 70% of the total intake capacity are done on the basis of OJEE. 15% of seats are filled on the basis of AIEEE/ISEET score. Rest of the 15% seats is reserved for NRI students.

Engineering graduates/M.Sc holders in relevant discipline can apply for M.Tech degree in the concerned stream. Admission is granted on the basis of GATE score. Non GATE candidates having 60% marks in qualifying degree can also seek admission.

Graduates who have studied mathematics as a subject either at intermediate/degree can apply for MCA course. 85% of the total available seats are filled on the basis of OJEE for MCA. 15% seats are reserved for NRI candidates.

Graduates having valid score in OJEE (MBA) can apply for MBA course. 70% of the total intake capacity is filled on the basis of the same. 15% seats are filled on the basis of candidate’s score in CAT/MAT/XAT. In this case also 15% seats are meant for NRI candidates. Admission to PGDM course is also done on the basis of candidate’s score in CAT/MAT/XAT/ OJEE (MBA).
