The National Institute of Science & Technology (NIST) was established in the year 1996 by a group of academicians educated in the top Institutes of India & abroad. The founder Director, Prof Sangram Mudali is B.Tech from IIT Kanpur (1985) & MS from University of Houston, USA (1987). He & his wife Mrs. Geetika Mudali, Placement Director (B.Tech-Osmania University, MS-NJIT, USA) left USA to establish a world class Institute in their home state of Orissa. Within a few years the reputation of the Institute spread far and wide and it admitted students only from the top 20% of the Orissa Joint Entrance Examinations and All India Entrance Examinations. Not a single seat of the Institute has been vacant in the last 17 years. Within a short span of 17 years, it has produced 4 BOYSCAST faculty scholars who have been funded by Government of India to pursue postgraduate research in the top Institutes in USA and Germany. NIST has produced 3 FullBright Scholars. Three of its faculty has won the Samant Chandrasekhar Young Scientist Award given by the Government of Orissa. Two AICTE funded Emeritus Professors worked at NIST. The faculty of the Institute has been awarded 3 URSI Young Scientist Awards. More than 25 Post doctorate scholarships have been awarded to the Institute faculty. The faculties of the Institute are alumni of IIT’s, IISc, ISI, Jadavpur University and Calcutta University etc. More than 35 faculty of the Institute are from the IITs alone which is a testimony to its ability to attract and retain top-notch faculty. The faculties of the Institute have published more than 250 journal papers in refereed journals and are authors of about 24 books published by reputed publishing houses. The Institute also has its own publishing house “NIST Press”. The Institute has received a number of grants, projects, special funding, travel funding, SDPs, FIST grant, scholarships, etc., from the DST, CSIR, AICTE, IT companies, etc. The faculty of the Institute has fully committed themselves to the Institute and the turnover ratio, i.e., number of faculty leaving the Institute in a year, is less than 10% which is extremely low as compared to similar academic Institutes. The major component of this is to go to IIT/NIT/abroad for higher education etc. The faculty of the Institute enjoys unlimited access to research journals, participate in conferences in India or abroad, initial research seed grants of Rs. 2 Lakhs each, financial remuneration for publication of books or research papers, state-of-the art laboratories, conducive work ambience and other benefits which are currently only available to faculty of top institutes such as IIT’s and NIT’s.

More than two dozen entrepreneurs amongst its alumni are testimony to its avowed aim of producing “job creators”. The Institute also has EDC and IIPC Unit for ingniting entrepreneurial culture among the student’s communities. The Institute has already applied for Technology Business Incubation (TBI Centre) to DST, Govt. of India for use of IT Solutions in Rural Problems.

The physical infrastructure at NIST is second to none. Nestled in the green hills of Palur, the campus is spread over 55 acres and is home to 1900 students residing in the campus. A fully wi-fi campus with landscaped gardens, aquarium, parks, fountains, makes it a place full of joy of living amidst nature. The sports infrastructure of indoor games, swimming pool, floodlit tennis courts, basketball courts, cricket, and indoor stadium (under construction) makes it a veritable paradise for sports lovers. The 4.3 square feet of academic space makes it one of the largest in this part of the country.

NIST, in its 17 years of existence, has been an innovator in best practices. The unique administrative model of extensive decentralization of decision making and financial devolution of powers makes it an ideal ground for the development of leadership qualities. NIST organization’s ability to engage everyone in most decisions is one of the core drivers for earning respect by demonstrating collaboration and creating & sustaining a great workplace. In addition, the youthful quality of its faculty and staff makes it dynamic and ready to respond to challenges. The feeling of “NIST parivar” is noteworthy not as a mere slogan but something we breathe each moment of our lives. NIST management has not merely talked eloquently about vision and mission but has actually walked the talk by shunning greener pastures in metros and elsewhere for the dream of establishing a world class institution in one of the most deprived parts of the country, Odisha. NIST has contributed handsomely to the development of the community by running employment training programs, establishing public libraries, donating computers, helping school for tribal children at DIGANTA, training school students and finally providing employment to over 600 staff and faculty.

The students of Biju Patnaik University of Technology have ranked NIST as the No. 1 Engineering Institute of Orissa, having surpassed all private and government engineering colleges of the state. In an online voting portal held in May, 2010, consisting of votes of thousands of students, NIST, has been ranked 1st with 97.2% based on parameters of industry exposure, infrastructure, placement, learning, faculty and extracurricular activities. Recently a graduating student was asked by a recruiter to make sense of NIST written backwards, ie. TSIN. Pat came the answer, TSIN = Top School in the Nation. And that is precisely our aim in the decades to com

National Institute of Science Education and Research – NISER

 

About National Institute of Science Education and Research – NISER :An Autonomous Institute under DAE, Government of India .  A primary objective of the Institute is to train and nurture human resources in the Sciences for the knowledge economies of the future. This is in line with a general shift in geo-political thinking that requires a remedy for sites of knowledge production centred in the west. Such a strategic shift in perspective has been necessitated by the realization that the unique circumstances of our nation demand unique scientific and pedagogic responses. Consequently, we are called upon to question and account for conventional narratives that stake claims to categorizations of science, technology, environment, learning, innovation, design and being. The predominant discourse that seeks to structure these superficially hard categories is predicated on justifications that till date have not moved beyond regimes of hierarchy, control and access. These strictures are an inherent feature of “Institutionalized Science” where Newtonian principles of organizing domains of cognition and mechanisms of representation constrain debates on what new conceptualizations of science ought to be like. More problematically this stifles the potential for interdisciplinarity just when everybody talks its language. This means we continue to think in and with strait jacketed binaries such as natural / artificial or being /thing and perhaps most dangerously science / everything else. The founding of this Institute is rooted in the understanding that the contexts we inhabit are dynamic and in flux, while we have not begun to think in terms of solutions to most of these problems we realize that they exist and that we need to quickly participate in the process of finding out some answers.

NISER recognizes that modern scientific research is carried out in interstices amongst fuzzy domains and blurred boundaries. This entails encouraging a new scientific culture where members of our community attain to an intellectual agility unconstrained by the limitations of disciplinary conventions from the past. Faculty and Students will be given generous material support in the pursuit to realize this objective. Time and conversational space will be devoted to nascent propositions and hypothesis and the significantly small student-faculty ratio, an eventual full strength of 2000 students and 300 faculty, manifests the Institutes investment and hope in the future.
