IIT Bhubaneswar To Hold Open House

IIT Bhubaneswar announces an Open Day on 18th June 2019 at its permanent campus at Argul, Jatni, and invites the JEE Advanced 2019 rank holders, and also prospective students preparing for JEE examination in 2020 for a live counselling session.

During the open day, the students and their parents can explore various departments, see the facilities, and interact with our faculty to get a feel of the IIT system. The counselling session will commence from 09:30 AM with few general talks on IIT education and admission process with an introduction to programs of study and campus life at IIT Bhubaneswar.

The session will be followed by a question and answer session, designed specifically to help the students in making a correct and informed choice in their career. Special counselling is planned for prospective female candidates by the helpdesk team of the Institute to clarify their queries, particularly on seat allocation through female supernumerary quota.

IIT Bhubaneswar has been organising JEE Open house and a helpdesk, particularly for female students since 2017, and was one of the first IITs to do so. The student community at large has immensely benefitted from the open house and their queries are successfully addressed through their participation, in person, through telephones and over skype.

"Generally, students not only from Odisha, and neighbouring states like West Bengal and Andhra Pradesh, but from all over India, such as Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh, Telangana, Bihar, Karnataka, Tamilnadu etc., participate in person for clarifications. This year too, we are hoping the same. The motto is to facilitate the students with requisite information which will help to make the right career choices and give them a hands-on experience of the IIT system", said R.V. Raja Kumar, Director, IIT Bhubaneswar.

Established in 2008, the Institute operates fully from its permanent campus sprawling over 941 acres of land, situated in the foot of Barunei hills. IIT Bhubaneswar has already made its mark in innovative research and holistic education, with state-of-the art technological facilities, innovative academic curriculum and global class faculty, all geared to impart quality education to students. Students interested in attending the session can go to web-portal mentioned below and get their names registered. The Open day will be conducted at the permanent campus of IIT Bhubaneswar at Argul-Jatni.
