About the Institute

Tripura is one of the eight states in the north-eastern part of India. Bangladesh borders the state on the north, west, south, and southeast, and it shares a common boundary with Assam and Mizoram in the east. The state is renowned for its picturesque greenery, with green forests covering about 60% of its total land area. 

The Ministry of Human Resources Development (MHRD), now MoE, issued the official notification for the conversion of Tripura Engineering College, Agartala, to the National Institute of Technology, Agartala, w.e.f. April 1, 2006, via notification No. F. 20-20/2004/TS III/ dated March 10, 2006. This is India's 20th NIT and the second oldest in the North-Eastern region. Established in 1965, the institute (previously known as Tripura Engineering College) offered three undergraduate engineering branches: Civil, Electrical, and Mechanical. It was initially affiliated with Calcutta University and had the same curriculum structure and examination system as Bengal Engineering College, like other institutes affiliated with the university. After the establishment of Tripura University, the institute became affiliated with the new Tripura University. 

In the 1999–2000 academic session, the institute initiated a B.Tech. degree course in Computer Science and Engineering. In the present day, the institute offers nine B.Tech. programmes as well as five dual degree programmes. Apart from this, the institute also offers MBA, MCA, and M.Sc. courses in Mathematics, Physics, and Chemistry, along with a dual degree programme in Engineering Physics and science courses in mathematics, physics, and chemistry, and a C-DAC centre for imbibing vocational education within the academic and industrial communities. The institute introduced research programmes such as PhDs in 2012 in Engineering as well as Science disciplines. The institute has impelled the dispersion of quality education and pioneering research in the fields of science and technology, social upliftment, and rural development in the highly segregated regions of north-east India. 

In 2006, after conversion, the NIT began its journey with six departments and a student strength of 750 only. In 2014, the institute experienced significant growth, boasting nine departments catering to undergraduates, as well as PG and Ph.D. students. The institute's total strength now stands at 4810, comprising 3641 UG, 413 dual degree,  408 PG, 42 in certificate courses, and 283 PhD scholars. For M.Tech. and PhD programmes, the institute's students and scholars benefit from TEQIP, AICTE, and MHRD scholarships. The Institute also offers scholarships to its post-doctoral fellows. In 2012, NIT Agartala received approval to become a QIP Minor Centre and is now welcoming QIP scholars from other reputable institutes. The Joint Entrance Examination (Main) ranking determines the admission of undergraduate students. Common counselling, based on the all-India ranking in the GATE examination, determines admission for M.Tech. students. Ph.D. scholars are admitted through interviews and extensive publicity in all Indian newspapers.

The lush green campus of NIT Agartala also provides hostel facilities for the students. For this purpose, the institute has operationalized a boys hostel with a capacity of 1000 and a girls hostel with a capacity of 500. Recently, a new boys hostel with a capacity of 1500 has been operationalized. There are multi-story apartments for the faculty and staff of the institute within the campus. The campus also has a market complex for day-to-day household requirements. The institute also has an international guest house with fully-furnished rooms.

Nowadays, health is a major concern. Therefore, the institute has a hospital attached with an adequate number of doctors. The campus hospital is equipped with adequate medical instruments as well as an ambulance. Apart from this, there is a primary health centre at Jirania, which is only 4 (four) km. from NIT, Agartala. As far as medical facilities are concerned in Agartala city, there are two medical colleges and hospitals, and one private hospital. They are "Agartala Govt. Medical College," "Dr. B.R. Ambedkar Memorial Medical College and Hospital," and “ILS Hospital”. There is also a referral hospital, namely "Indira Gandhi Memorial Hospital," at Agartala, which is only 17 km from NIT, Agartala.

NIT Agartala has a state-of-the-art sports complex, which is perhaps the best in any NIT in the region. On campus, extensive infrastructure development work is underway to construct additional academic blocks and recreational facilities. The institute has equipped its laboratories with modern facilities that cater to academic and research requirements.

The institute at present has an adequate number of faculty members. The institute's main strength is its experienced, highly qualified, young, and motivated faculties.  The institute has signed MoUs with foreign universities, such as  Sonoma State University, California, US, and Durham University, UK, for academic exchange programmes. 

USP:

1. Out of 8 NIT’s in the North-East, NIT Agartala was the only institute to get accredited status for its courses from the National Board of Accreditation (NBA) in 2013. The NBA recently accredited the departments of electrical and civil engineering as well.

2. The only NIT to host a Kendriya Vidyalaya school up to the 12th standard within the campus.
