About Us
North Eastern Regional Institute of Science and Technology (NERIST) is a unique Institute of its kind in the country, having unconventional and innovative academic programmes. It was established in 1983 by the Government of India. Its foundation stone was laid by former President of India Late Giani Zail Singh on 4th March 1984. The Institute was set up initially as a project of the North Eastern Council (NEC) for providing a system of education to create technical manpower at various levels for the development of the North Eastern Region of the country.
Its approach is to encourage a policy of vocationalisation at the +2 level and to allow motivated students to go for degree level while letting others to go out of the Institute to enrich their profession with some years of industrial experience.

It is governed by the Board of Management (BoM) comprising the representatives of the MHRD, Govt. of India, the eight beneficiary states of the North Eastern States, AICTE and eminent educationists. It is fully residential, and is spread over in 513 acres of land.
