Veer Surendra Sai University of Technology

I visited VSSUT as part of the Grand Finale of Smart India Hackathon 2023, where my team was shortlisted among the top 40. We faced some minor errors that prevented us from winning, but we still enjoyed the challenge and the opportunity to showcase our innovative ideas. The hostel and the campus were very spacious and comfortable, and we had everything we needed for our stay. The main hackathon was held at the E-Centre, which was amazing as usual. The organizers provided us with delicious food, snacks, and beverages throughout the day. We had a great time working on our projects, interacting with other teams, mentors, and judges, and presenting our solutions to the problem statements. It was an unforgettable experience that I will cherish forever.

Great college for making a bunch of beautiful friends, people who will treat like a family. This place was so amazing to explore different types of learning experiences from the alumni and batchmates with some good memories in in participation of events, competitions and many more campaign organized inside and outside the campus.

The infrastructure of this college is awesome. The college has greenery scenes. It has an awesome canteen and cafeteria. The Hirakud Dam near the college and the P. C. Bridge Burla, etc., looks gorgeous. It has its own kind of beauty, which cannot be described.
