Hello,


Metallurgy is quite good in NITK. Academics are good.

Facilities, Faculties,Campus are also good.


Placement depends on your performance because major companies recruit only selected workforce

You have to apply off campus only for major government companies which are into metallurgy

Minimum placement is 6 lakhs per annum and maximum being 34 lakhs. Last year around 87% of students got placed.



Please visit the link given below for further details:

Hi there!

Since you specifically mentioned Chemical Engineering, it all boils down to the college. NIT Warangal is much better than NIT Karnataka in terms of Faculty, Placements,etc. NIT Warangal, NIT Trichy and NIT Surathkal are always among the top 3 NITs in India.

I do not have any idea whether you can change your branch at NIT Karnataka. At NITW, Based on your 1st year's CGPA, you can slide into the branch of your choice. Let me tell you, its neither easy nor tough !

The branch slide results have been out a week ago and many chem and biotech students have successfully made it to ece, cse, mech, etc.

The thing with faculties is that, students will never be satisfied. They will always find faults even with good faculties. I prefer not to speak on that.

The choice is yours ! Both are good,while NITW has an edge.

Good luck !

Dear aspirant

Sadly there is no defence quota in any of the nits let alone nit surathkal. If Karnataka happens to be your home state where this respective nit is, then the cutoff ranks for you are 3561-38716 as per the past year cutoffs.

Cutoffs are least for computer engineering and highest for mining engineering.

Cutoffs ranges from 2156 to 27212 if Karnataka is not the home state

Use the link below for a detailed cutoff for each course.

With a rank of 16950 it is tough to get NITK mechanical engineering as the past year cutoff was 8980 in the 7th round but you still can get Metallurgy or Civil Engineering.Hope I have resolved your query.But my advice to you would be to apply to other NITs and the top private colleges.So best of luck and may you excel in JEE Advanced.

College Infrastructure

Im a First Year Student at NIT Surathkal persuing Metallurgy and Materials Engineering and the infrastructure is great other than their sports complex is not so good, all of the sports facilities are cramped in one place

Life at NITK

College Infrastructure

Classrooms and sports centres are great. Infrastructure available on need basis. Wi-Fi is great but not available at good speeds at some hostels. There is CIDS and CRF that are having many projects. There are two libraries one of which is open upto 12 midnight on normal days.

Good experience.

Verified Review
