    NIT Rourkela infrastructure is outstanding, it have very very large campus area, it is filled with greenery. The campus have so many sports facility and very big play ground.there is no problem with NETWORK Wi-Fi is fully available throughout the campus . Central library have full of books . Along with Education facility it provides so many co-curricula Activities . Main thing in the campus is it's Olympic size Swimming pool and Flood lights on ground .

    Academics

    I am studying in Electrical engineering branch. From My childhood I have a great interest in Electrical appliances and their working mechanism. And NIT rourkela is going to fulfill my dream and I have full confidence on my INSTITUTE that it should make my dream come true. The quality of education is excellent and teacher gave one to one guidance. Always teacher's are ready to clear all doubts of all students not only inside class but also beyond the college.

    Placements

    NIT rourkela provides almost 100% placements. Every type of companies comes to our college , including some Microsoft, google, adobe, amazon , and many more multi national companies. But I think companies should give a high package because this is really a excellent institute.

    Value for Money

    Obviously it is value for money. However the fees Is high but after getting job from this institution all things would be compromised. The companies provide a good packages after study, so I think no issues with fees. Even if there are so many scholarship.

    Campus Life

    Due to lock down I have nothing to say about campus life. But from other sources and from senior I headed that Campus life is good. Interaction with different types of people from different states and country provide a better communication skills.

    Others

    Overall it is excellent, every facility including academics, sports, package, other competition, various club, and better communication skills with better people everything is excellent. Teachers gave one to one guidance which is rare in other technical institutes.

    NIT ROURKELA AT ITS BEST

    Verified Review
    College Infrastructure

    I have actually grown up in Rourkela. As per my knowledge it has the second largest engineering college campus in India. Hostels are good enough and so far as I know each of the first year boys hostels namely M. Visvesvaraya hall of residence and GD Birla hall of residence have mess connected to hostel itself. However the rooms of former hostel are little bit small. The classes take place in the lecture avenue which has large lecture halls. There are playgrounds for each and every sport.

    Academics

    Academics as I have heard from seniors is quite decent. I am currently pursuing B.Tech in mechanical engineering because I am quite interested in Mechanics. Most of the professors are old so they have good enough experience of teaching. But due to pandemic situation we are having online classes which has apparently given an impression of poor network connectivity. Further the curriculum is little bit orthodox, and I think it can be improvised to new curriculum wherein students get more scope.

    Placements

    The average placements have been better and is increasing from strength to strength every year. Some sources say that the highest packages are given only to software and circuital branches. But I learned from my mentor that students of mechanical branch are allowed to sit in software companies like Goldman Sachs. We get around 90% placements every year and average packages vary from 10-15 lpa in mechanical branch. The highest package has been around 42 lacs per annum.

    Value for Money

    The value for money rating is quite good. We are charged 124000 INR in first semester and 99000 INR in the second onwards and 102000 in the seventh semester which is decent enough when we see the facilities available. All students are provided with hostels even the localities can avail hostels which are basically 2 seaters rooms for boys hostels with good food quality. Then we have common gyms and badminton courts in every hostels so its worth the money we are paying.

    Campus Life

    The best features of the campus are it has a rule of mandatory bicycles for the students which makes the campus pollution free. The other things are the Bhubaneswar Behera auditorium, the golden jubilee building which is the highest building in Rourkela. The campus has 60-70 clubs under the SAC which provides us a platform to refine our extra curricular skills. Some teachers are really good and very friendly with students while others are hard taskmasters. The location has greenery all around.

    Others

    I am waiting for the campus to open in physical mode so that can explore the campus more.

    Placements

    The placements of our college is very good and various types of tech companies come to NITRkl . Mostly tech companies offer high packages and about 90% of students were placed .the highest package offered is about 40 lakhs and it was of CSE. the average salary offered is 10-12 lakh. the college is very supportive in placements.

    Value for Money

    The course cost is about 1 lakh per annum including the mess and hostel facillities. It is quite good value for money for reservation candidates and also general students . Also better than few IIT's . therefore it is really interesting for us to get world class facilities in a that amount of money.

    Campus Life

    The campus life is very much interesting and is full of activites . The college regularly conducts fests which are full of activities and enjoyment. the students ,teachers and support staff are vey good and supportive . the location very much feasible from railway station and markets . emergencies can be handled very easily.

    Others

    It was dream come true for those who wanted a good college to fulfil all the requirement of being a good engineering and research purpose . therfore oppurtunity to study in nitrkl should not be missed at any cost because you will not find such facilities in Odisha and one of top colleges of India .

    Good NIT

    Verified Review
    College Infrastructure

    Infrastructure wise, one of the best NITs. Has good labs, classrooms, sport facilities, library,etc. Has a swimming pool, also decent hostels. Sports facilities include football grounds, cricket ground, gym,etc. Library is one of a kind with huge collection of books.

    Academics

    Academics is good, but teaching methodology seems slightly outdated. Standard reading from the slides is not what one expects at this prestigious college. Sometimes, the teachers lack enthusiasm in their subject.

    Placements

    Placements are decent. CSE if brilliant, obviously. Many core companies visit as well. Apart from this several financial/analytics companies visit which are open for all branches. The training and placement cell does work hard.

    Value for Money

    Government subsidised college, obviously cheaper than private colleges.

    Campus Life

    Campus life depends not just on the great infrastructure, but the friends that you make. So far I've met some cool people who are all going to do great things in life.

    Can't go wrong with this college. Definitely a top NIT.

The teachers are well qualified and the curriculum is very useful in every aspect.

    In terms of infrastructure NITR is one of the biggest colleges in India. There are 7 boys hostels and 2 girls hostel with well maintained gyms and sports complexes. There are well equipped labs for all departments. NITR has a awesome swimming pool and a big library .Now coming to food which is generally a big issue for many hostels in other institutions but if you are a student of NITR then surely you r going to have an upper hand in the food part especially if u are a non-veggie

    Academics

    I am currently in the electronics and instrumentation engineering branch as, I was always fascinated by electronics so i wanted a seat in ECE but unfortunately i couldn't make into it so i got an seat in EI which is almost equal to ECE so i went for it. ya, since I am a fresher i dont know much about the course curriculum but the teachers in our first sem vere quite decent but some were a bit pedagogue type. But, its ok bcz always we cant expect the best for us

    Placements

    Being among the top engineering institutes of the country students from all parts of our country come here to study its like a battle of brains and the institute gives us an opportunity to learn from seniors and teachers. placement is a much important factor. Let me give u a brief insight and in the year 2020 highest package was 42lpa and many other seniors grabbed high packages. Many top companies come here for placements and there are excellent opportunities for all to bag a high package.

    Value for Money

    our course is costs around 1.2lakhs per semester if you are a general category candidate. All of the NIT's and IIT's have almost same fees but the facilities and food is worth the money we paid for it .

    Campus Life

    see campus life is a very vast thing it depends on your nature your friend circle which will play a vital role in making ur college life memorable. Coming to teachers and staff part its overally, good but u know there are always some strict teachers who are there to spoil the fun. Same is the situation here
