Affiliated colleges place students on their own, so figures vary widely from college to college.

Industry & incubation

  • No confirmed incubator or MoU for SIST engineering
  • Not officially published: check SIST and NIT Sikkim directly

Good to know

  • SU prospectus maps % ranges to grade points (95%+ = 10) but gives no CGPA-to-% formula; check the grade card.
  • NEP 2020 FYUGP since 2022-23: 160 credits for 4-year honours, multiple entry and exit.
  • SIST is Sikkim's only state govt engineering college; most others go to NIT Sikkim, SMIT or via CSAB-NEUT.
