== Campus ==

In the first phase of development, NITS Mirza<ref>{{cite web|title=Engineering College in Assam Web Directory|url=http://humtydumty.in/web-directory/nits-mirza-aicte-approved-engineering-collegeassam}}</ref> started in 2009 with an intake of 200 students in four branches of engineering, a 6000 square foot library, a 3000 square foot computer centre, a 9000 square foot workshop, laboratories, classrooms, and a 100,000 square foot playground for outdoor games, and a gym.

== Organization and administration ==
NITS Mirza is governed by a governing body, constituted in accordance with the [[AICTE]] guidelines composed of academic leaders, NETES members, and nominees of AICTE, Assam Government, Gauhati University, and the industry. The Principal is the administrative and academic head of the institute.

=== About NETES ===
The North East Technical Education Society (NETES) was formed in 2005 by a group of individuals drawn from academia, industry, business and social enterprises.

=== Collaborations ===
[http://www.synopsys.com Synopsys], Inc., a provider of [[software]] and IP for semiconductor design, verification and manufacturing has partnered with NITS Mirza to establish one of its five Regional Centres of Excellence in [[India]] at NITS Mirza for its [[VLSI]] design curriculum.

A computing environment coupled with remote learning facilities from experts and remote access laboratory practices has been created at NITS Mirza in association with Seer Akademi with the use of Synopsys software tools and IC design flow, and access to faculty.

NITS Mirza has also partnered with Springhive Labs Private Limited, Guwahati to develop Paryavaran Monitoring System, an environmental monitoring hardware board and web service to connect people with their environment and their locality to create more effective and optimised relationships between resources, technology, communities, services and events in their environment.

== Research and Development (R&D) ==

===RemoteLab===
The RemoteLab of NITS Mirza will enable students to access experiments and tutorials via [[internet]].

The remote lab project will give technical education and practical experimentation remotely, over internet. Users control electronic instruments and modify experiment parameters, using a browser on the internet.

The remote lab will be a platform that can be used by technical institutes to plug in their experiments and demonstrations and broadcast to participating schools and colleges.

===Robotics Lab===
A sophisticated [[Robotics]] and embedded systems training center is equipped to provide students the opportunity to learn hands-on. Robotic workshops, step by step practical approach to designing and making electronics and communication systems required to create autonomous and guided robots are organized periodically. The lab has over 50 robotic platforms on which students are involved in design and implementation of circuits for vehicle guidance, navigation, and collision detection.

===Bhola Nath Saikia Advanced Communication Research Centre===
The Bhola Nath Saikia Advanced Communication Research Centre<ref>{{cite news|title=Eminent Nuclear Scientist delivers lecture at NITS Mirza|url=http://www.sentinelassam.com/state2/story.php?sec=2&subsec=7&id=138798&dtP=2012-11-26&ppr=1|accessdate=7 December 2012|newspaper=The Sentinel, Assam}}</ref> has been established at NITS Mirza with [[R&D]] infrastructure to work on areas such as computer to computer [[wireless communication]], [[broadband]], and [[digital modulation]]. These teaching aids will be available to all schools and colleges all over the country and possibly abroad, through the concept of the Remote Lab, which already has been functional at NITS Mirza.

===Paryavaran Monitoring===
NITS Mirza in collaboration with Springhive Labs Private Limited is now pioneering Paryavaran Monitoring<ref>{{cite web|title=NITS MIRZA PARYAVARAN MONITORING WEBSITE|url=http://pms.nitsmirza.ac.in/|accessdate=7 December 2012}}</ref> – a network of school weather stations of NITS Mirza in order to collect local environmental parameters through schools over the North Eastern Region. The objective is to create a network of local weather monitoring units at the same time enabling students to assemble, operate, and maintain gadgets to monitor and transmit weather parameters.

Equipment to measure temperature and humidity would be supplied to the schools by NITS Mirza free of cost. In the second phase equipment for measurement of rainfall and wind speed would be added. Gadgets for other weather parameters would be added gradually some of which, e.g. a gadget for recording and transmitting sound level including that of thunderstorm, would be assembled by the students in workshops to be organised at NITS Mirza. Weather data will be uploaded to the NITS Mirza data compiler through the internet.

Paryavaran Monitoring was launched by [[Tarun Gogoi|Shri Tarun Gogoi]], Chief Minister of Assam during SASTRICAS 2012<ref>{{cite news|title=Tarun Gogoi for expansion of science education|url=http://www.assamtribune.com/scripts/detailsnew.asp?id=mar2512/at092|newspaper=Assam Tribune|accessdate=7 December 2012}}</ref><ref>{{cite news|title=Weather station network launched|url=http://www.sentinelassam.com/ghy_city/story.php?sec=1&subsec=0&id=111566&dtP=2012-11-01&ppr=1|newspaper=The Sentinel, Assam|accessdate=7 December 2012|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160304002724/http://www.sentinelassam.com/ghy_city/story.php?sec=1&subsec=0&id=111566&dtP=2012-11-01&ppr=1|archive-date=4 March 2016|url-status=dead}}</ref><ref>{{cite news|title=Gogoi launches school weather station network at NITS Mirza|url=http://www.newslivetv.com/regional/gogoi-launches-school-weather-station-network-at-nits-mirza.html|newspaper=News Post|accessdate=7 December 2012}}</ref> -The First Techno Cultural festival of NITS Mirza during March 2012.
