    College Infrastructure

    Yes the college has all the necessary infrastructure, facilities and equipment that might be required for the student. The equipments are continuously maintained and are in good shape. The classrooms dont have a perfect ventilation but the coolers cover up for it. Yes the living spaces in hostels are clean and well maintained

    The quality of placements is good for the circuital branches while the non circuital branches suffer. The packages of students aren't what is expected from a national level college except for a few which are used for advertisements.

    Value for Money

    the cost of the course for a year is around 2 lakhs which and not its not worth the money

    One of the best among all NITs in terms of infrastructure for labs, advanced research equipment and other activities like sports, extra curriculars etc. Classrooms are spacious and plenty in number. Library is huge, may be the largest in Odisha. There are a 8 boys hostels and 2 ladies hostels. Have separate mess and food quality is ok. And the environment is clean

    Academics

    Quality of academics is pretty good if not the best. Almost all faculty members are PhDs from reputed institutes both from India and abroad. NIT Rourkela has the highest research output in terms of publications in peer reviewed journals and total number of citations. Academic Curriculum was recently updated to make it for flexible and match industry standards. Biggest negative point is the ultra stringent attendance policy with 85% mandatory attendance in classes.

    Placements

    About placements is overall good.if Only major disadvantage is location. Lack of a functional airport in Rourkela acts as an obstacle for some companies to visit campus. Average CTC approximately 7 LPA in my batch with highest being 42 LPA. And overall every student get placement

    Value for Money

    General: 6.27 Lakhs Scheduled Caste: 1.27 Lakhs Scheduled Tribe: 1.27 Lakhs . Fee is little bit high but if you are from scheduled caste then fee is feasible for you. And also apply for different scholarship

    Placements

    Companies like General electric, Qualcomm, Schneider came for placement but due to current situation they recruited very less number of students. Average package for IT sector companies are 6 to 8 lpa. Internship offers are also there for intrested students.

    Absolutely thrilling

    College Infrastructure

    College campus is huge and one of the largest in India, it has everything from numerous cafeterias to restaurants and canteens, 10 hostels to go with different mess in each of them. Worth the praise for its campus

    Academics

    Quality of teaching is about par, it depends on the teacher, most of them are good but can't be expecting much as it's a government institution. It's worth going for and you won't regret it for sure .

    Placements

    Average salary offered is around 7-8 lacs discounting the off campus placements, it has a decent campus placement probably a bit hampered by number of branches it has that are a bit unknown to other colleges
