    NIT Rourkela.

    College Infrastructure

    According to the online reviews, I see NITR has all the minimum infrastructure that premier institutes need to have. There are lecture halls (All call them LA), the classrooms are spacious, lighting and ventilation take the above-average scoring. Hostels, Departments, Open Air Theater(SAC). All the buildings maintaining 4-star cleanliness.

    Academics

    I've enrolled in a chemical engineering degree. The quality of teaching is awesome. Professors are making academics an easy bite. My curriculum gets updated with the latest advancements in our field of study. All other than classrooms like labs, workshops, give us more exposure to our field. Yes, I would say these academics make us enough to be ready to go employee.

    Placements

    I've found that average placement packages are quite less than other top NITs. Due to more number of branches, I feel the average package has dropped down, considering the placements of all CS, EC, and other core branches the placement percentage is more, many students had placed in well-reputed companies with a decent CTC.

    I haven't been to campus so till how it's acedemic only.

    College Infrastructure

    College has not latest but great infrastructure.campus as well as hostels are WiFi enabled although the speed is not consistent. About the labs, I heard that labs are well equipped but I'll change my review (update it) after getting into campus

    Academics

    We are attending the classes in online mode so it's not much appealing,although some subjects are going great. I won't say ever subject is thought well in every section as teachers are different so there is no particular pattern. The main issue is not proffs I guess but it's technology that some proffs are struggling with.what I got to know till now is proffs are highly qualified and I'll update my review after being to campus.

    Placements

    About placement nitrkl has somehow good records. The placements of some top circuitry department is very good like maximum package is 40lpa but I will suggest you not to go with highest package instead average will go good. average package of our branch is like 7.5lpa.i don't have any communication with placement cell as I am a fresher and still haven't been to campus.

    Value for Money

    Being a central government college for general candidates 2lpa which I guess is quite high,me being ews candidate I have to pay 1.2 lpa where as if we compare with state government colleges it's very hefty like for state colleges it's 30-40k per year so.ignoring all of these if we talk about value for money so it's a yes from me. You will get a good placement (off course u have to work hard)

    Campus Life

    I am uncertain to say about campus life as I am not in campus but about interaction with staff , seniors and professors in online media it's very friendly so I guess it would be a remembering campus life, I'll update this too.

    I am pursuing my Bachelor of Technology in Electrical Engineering because this is one of the branch which is software and hardware orientation and i have great scope in future. The quality of teaching at NIT R is amazing all teachers are highly qualified and most of them hold a doctorate degree (PhD) . Some teachers are quite new with little experience but they have good knowledge about the subject. As I am pursuing my 1st year I cant tell about relation of curriculum to recent development.

The highest salary offered in electrical was 40 lakh per annum. and the lowest salary offered was 5-6 lakh per annum. the average salary given was 10-12 lakh per annum. Top companies which recruit Electrical Engineers are Qualcomm , SAP labs, Oyo ,ola ,Tata etc. . More than 80% students are placed in campus placements and 40-50 % get on campus internships, which is quite a big ratio . Other students get off campus.

    Value for Money
