My father is an ex-TnP coordinator of NIT-Silchar, and I asked him the same question. Here is what he shared

• Research by faculty : NIT Silchar has a few faculty who are involved in research and are known in their respective fields. 
•  relevant forums.
• Research by students : NIT Silchar students work on materializing their fantasies through their research work. They apply the knowledge they have gained in fields such as machine design, Image Processing, Machine Learning, etc., and generate a lot of intellectual property.
• Placements (CSE) : Big companies like Goldman Sachs, PriceWaterhouseCoopers, Wells Fargo, SAP Labs, Samsung R and D, Snapdeal, C-DOT (PSU), DRDO, etc. hire almost 50% of the CSE batch. Last year, 82 out of 97 students got placed in the CSE branch. 
• Placements Core: Many PSUs along with some private firms come with decent packages. Companies like BPCL, HPCL, OIL, IOCL, ONGC, POWERGRID, HSCC, BEL, REC, DRDO(MOD, GOI), etc. visit NIT regularly. 
• Start-Ups: NITs get funds directly from the government so NIT Silchar has its incubation cell. 
• Campus Life: NIT Silchar campus spreads across 650 acres of Campus and is majorly run by students. Students manage most affairs from messes to Gymkhana Events. This inculcates managerial skills among the students. 

So yes, NIT Silchar is worth every penny you spend here!

Before joining NIT Agartala, even I had many misconceptions about this institution. These were mostly regarding the connectivity, environment, culture, diet, infrastructure, faculty and placements.

Now that I have experienced life at NITA, I am in a position to break these misconceptions about NITA and NITS-

• Lack of connectivity- Maharaja Bir Bikram airport is just 26 km away from NIT Agartala, and Jirania railway station is just 3 kilometers away. NIT Silchar is just 35 km away from Silchar Airport, and the railway station is 10 km away from the campus. These towns have an absence of traffic jams and efficient transport services.

• Terrorism problem- This is a complete myth. Both Agartala and Silchar are really peaceful places.

• Culture and People- No, the people aren’t ‘uncivilized’. Tripura has one of the highest literacy rates in India. Silchar is an eminent trading center and knowledge hub in the Northeast. Both have medical colleges, research centers, and central universities. 

• Infrastructure- NIT Agartala has one of the most advanced infrastructures among Indian colleges. NITS has all the infrastructural facilities. Some facilities included in NITA and NITS are- Supercomputers, Scanning electron microscope, and ISRO innovation incubation centre (NITA). NITS has Asia’s largest digital library. Besides that, both have good workshops and labs, a modern sports complex, auditoriums, restaurants, wifi facility, a swimming pool and a gym.

• Placements- Both offer decent placements. The average package goes to around 5-7 LPA for them. 

• Food- The food at mess is good. It caters to the dietary needs of people from all across India, and even foreign lands.

• Faculty- The faculty is excellent at NITS. At NITA, some teachers aren’t good while others are very helpful and learned. 

I hope that you will consider NIT Agartala and NIT Silchar for your higher studies. Both are very good colleges. 

NIT Silchar has a competitive peer group, which is a major factor in your growth as an individual. It consists of brilliant minds, sports enthusiasts, and aspirant students. Another attractive part of the college is that they give equal importance to the extracurricular activities along with the studies, which is evident from the presence of numerous clubs and societies on campus. Second-year and third-year students usually get placed in core companies with decent salary packages every year.

Overall, NIT Silchar will gift you a mind-blowing experience that will enhance both your growth and career. 

At NIT Silchar, classes begin at around 8 am. Everyone rushes off to attend their lectures, mostly on an empty stomach. At 12 noon, everyone gets a break from classes and has lunch. This is followed by lab or afternoon classes on some days and free time on some others. Afternoon sessions are held till 5 in the evening. After 5, some people go for club meetings, some hit the gym, some play their favorite sports, and others spend time with their friends. This goes on till 7-7:30 pm. Sometimes, workshops and practical lab sessions take up most of the evening.

After that, it's time to go back to hostels, get some work done, take a bath and eat by 9 pm. Football fans like to watch games on the common room TV and gamers are on their screens till 12-1 am. Midnights are meant for birthday gatherings. This hostel schedule is for boys, it may differ for girl students. 

NIT Silchar has been a great experience for me, despite coming from a totally different cultural setup. You’ll find people from all over India over there. You should go to Indie Lake with friends in the evening. The campus is really big and there’s a lot to explore. The tech fest Tecnoesis and cultural-fest Incandescence are much awaited. Although NIT Silchar has undergone a lot of improvement, frequent power cuts, uncertain weather, and forest-like fields surrounding the campus may irritate you sometimes. 

Regardless of a few shortcomings, you will have plenty of fun with your friends during your time at NIT Silchar. Apart from studies, you’ll be introduced to night outs, college fests, and basically finding joy in the most random things. This place will teach you not just academics but also some valuable life lessons.
