Overview

About NIST University, Odisha

NIST University, Odisha is an university in Berhampur, Odisha, established in 1996. NIST University, Odisha is privately managed and self-financing. It is affiliated to NIST University, Odisha. NIST University, Odisha offers 11 programmes, 4 at undergraduate level and 3 at postgraduate level. These include School of Engineering: B.Tech and BCA programmes (UG), School of Engineering: M.Tech and MCA programmes (PG), School of Science: B.Sc programmes (UG), School of Science: M.Sc programmes (PG) and School of Management: BBA programmes (UG), among others. The stated sanctioned intake across these programmes totals 120 seats. NIST University is a self-financed private, unitary and non-affiliating university established under the NIST University, Odisha Act, 2023, at Institute Park, Berhampur. The university's official Ph.D. notice covers Monsoon Semester 2026. Current official pages identify Prof. (Dr.) Priyadarsan Patra as Vice-Chancellor. No university-wide attendance percentage, medium of instruction, faculty rank breakdown, exact PhD-holder count, clinical tie-up, bed count, or exact university patent total was published in the reviewed official sources. The statutes define an academic year as Monsoon and Spring semesters, with a Summer quarter. The NIST (National Institute of Science & Technology) University, Odisha Act, 2023, enacted as Odisha Act 1 of 2024, converted the former National Institute of Science & Technology, Berhampur autonomous college into a self-financed, private, unitary and non-affiliating university. The Act states the headquarters are at Pallur Hills, Ganjam; the official university contact page gives the operational address as Berhampur 761008. The institution's 1996 date refers to the predecessor institution, while university status took effect under the Odisha government notification in 2024. The UGC letter states inclusion under Section 2(f), with regular-mode degree awards and no affiliated colleges; it also cautions that inclusion alone does not authorize admissions until required infrastructure and staffing norms are met. No supported current NIRF rank or NAAC dashboard grade was recorded: the official brochure claims NAAC A, but the authoritative NAAC list opened did not contain NIST University.
