Not only in NIT Puducherry, but even in Institutes like IIT Bombay and Kharagpur, the Core Placements of Civil are extremely bleak with only a couple of Companies like Tata Projects, L&T, Shapporji Pallonji visiting them. Situation is similar at NIT Puducherry however if you develop interest in Finance/Software/IT/Data Analytics you may have opportunities from the Non Core sector luring you during Campus Placements.

If you are interested in pursuing a career in Civil Engineering, I would advise you to give GATE and try your luck in the PSU Sector. Most of the PSUs be it from Core Infrastructure to Chemical and Refinery always have opening for Civil and Mechanical Engineers. You even have a chance to pursue M.Tech from one of the Top IITs or IISc Bangalore.

You must also appear for the UPSC ESE examination for prestigious Indian Engineering Service Positions.

Another option could be cracking the entrance examination for NICMAR, and pursuing a PGDM in Project Engineering and Management or related Construction and Infrastructural Management disciplines with excellent career scope and placements. NICMAR Pune has almost 100% placements and is one of the higher study destinations for Civil Graduates.

Hello,

Studying EEE/ ECE either in NIT Puducherry or Top 3 Eamcet colleges are good way for you. However, in general, most of the students wish to study their engineering at NIT college's so since you have chance to get NIT Puducherry then it will be best option and also first priority. But carefully that you don't select the college that is not listed in top 3 Eamcet college. However the best route is choosing NIT Puducherry. So choose wisely.

hello aspirant ...

Placements: The placements are not good. CSE had good placements of 60 percent. Don't choose this college for job opportunities. The best package is 15 lakhs per annum, and the average is 4-5 lacs per annum. Recently, it became even worse. NIT Goa and Delhi had great placements.

Infrastructure: Despite being a new college, development is going on. If it is finished, it would be a great campus. Sadly, it would take a lot of years to finish, but everything is okay. This year, they finished considering ATM and store, so I think we got it, but it is very slow.

Faculty: There is only one professor. All the remaining are assistant professors, that too, CSE ma'am is a professor. Due to very fewer classrooms, they dived the first year into two groups. We can use one big classroom in which 150 students would fit in.

thnk you

National Institute of Technology Puducherry and Pondicherry College of Engineering both goes almost side by side. However, Pondicherry Engineering College has better ranking an ratings than NIT Puducherry. NIT Puducherry has been ranked at 130th Position by NIRF among top Engineering colleges of India in 2020 while ranking of Pondicherry Engineering college is 122. Being one of the oldest colleges of the town, Pondicherry Engineering College has many experienced faculties. Coming to placements, these are almost same. It would be difficult to compare. Both core as well as software and sales based companies recruit from these two institutions. However, most number of companies recruit from NIT Puducherry with more package than Pondicherry Engineering college. The brand name of NIT helps much in this case. Companies like Capgemini, Samsung, Zoho, Alcatel- lucent, IBM, Sapient, Mphasis etc recruit EC engineers from NIT Puducherry. Placements of Pondicherry Engineering college is also good. You should compare the student reviews of both the colleges. http://www.careers360.com/university/national-institute-of-technology-puducherry-karaikal

So, if you would have puducherry as your Home State then you must have got every branch there, but if you haven't got that, it means it isn't your Home State...

Hope This Helps, and feel free to ask any further query...

Dear student,

As you have secured 67.11 percentile score in jee mains from obc category, then it's impossible for you to get nit puducherry, even if you belong from home state quota.

This year the cutoff percentile score for obc candidates was around 72. And therefore you have not cleared the cutoff for jee mains this year.

As you have got 67.11 percentile then your obc rank is around more than 125000. And with this much rank you can't even get any branch of nit puduchery.
And last year the highest cutoff closing rank for obc home state candidates was - 96543 ( for civil engineering, in round 7 ).

So, you cannot get nit puduchery in any round counselling this year.
Better you try for some other private colleges.

Also check out our jee mains college predictor tool to get an appropriate idea of colleges that you can get on basis of your jee mains rank :-

I would suggest you to go for other Engineering entrance and state level entrance exams or drop a year and try to get better results.

College Infrastructure

This college has good infrastructure and all necessary things. Among other new nits, this nit has a permanent campus and developing at a very faster rate. But one disadvantage is there is no single tree in whole campus.

Overall it is comfortable life here with plenty of time left

Verified Review

College Infrastructure

Since it is a new nit, things are still being built here but at a faster rate..And basic things like classroom,library,laboratory,food, wifi are present..And A.C.'s are there for first year's new boys hostel..

Unexpected experience from a new NIT.

Verified Review

College Infrastructure

As a new NIT that got started on 2009 and just moved to permanent campus 3 years ago the college infrastructure development is next level. Labs, classrooms and hostels are there - most new NITs don't have permanent campus. Sports facilities are improving starting from volleyball, basketball and badminton.
