Messages From Faculty Message from Director In-Charge I am delighted to know that the students of SVNIT have brought back the college newsletter “Times of SVNIT”. This newsletter from Renesa acts as a platform to highlight all the good work, i.e., achievements, events, and other activities that all the student chapters have been doing, and also showcases the commendable achievements of the individual students. Despite the unique circumstances created by COVID-19, the students of SVNIT have maintained their enthusiasm and displayed their interest in carrying out various activities of the chapters.
The offline classes have been conducted inside the campus for the final-year B.Tech. and first-year M.Tech. students this semester. The institute has called the students of M.Sc., second-year and third-year B.Tech., second-year M.Tech. and Ph.D. to report in the institute in December 2021. The offline classes for all the students (except firstyear B.Tech.) will start from 3rd January, 2022. I want the students of SVNIT to enjoy the campus and take appropriate personal and collective precautions when living, learning, working and playing.
We are ranked 47 in the Engineering category among the top technical institutes of the country by NIRF 2021. We are now in the process of submitting the relevant data to NIRF 2022 of the Ministry of Education. We hope to improve our rank in the India Rankings 2022.
The institute celebrates the Diamond Jubilee this year but remains as young at heart as ever. We remain committed to excellence and growth in every facet. The institute, on the whole, has successfully steered its path at all times, trying to expand its limits despite the unpredictable barriers. The institute aims to be a globally accepted leading academic institution that provides a more holistic and multidisciplinary education, creating knowledge, and catalyzing excellent and innovative quality research in science, engineering, and technology, contributing to the development of the nation and humanity at large.
After seeing the efforts of the students to bring out this newsletter, I am proud to have such wonderful people as students. I congratulate the entire newsletter team. Newsletters like these convey the achievements and innovative works of the students of SVNIT to the other institutes and also serve as a sort of archive for the future. I can proudly say that SVNIT Surat will continue to succeed at producing the finest engineers in the country.
Best wishes.
