Which is better NIT Patna or IIT Patna?
I don’t think it’s logical to compare IIT Patna with NIT Patna. Consider the following points
- The comparison should be done of average packages and not the highest packages. That being said, IIT Patna's highest CTC is INR 29.30 LPA, and NIT Patna's average package is INR 14 LPA.
- IIT Patna has 8 MOUs with foreign universities and 1 with the UNICEF office of Bihar thus providing better research options than NITP.
- Despite IIT Patna being younger than NIT Patna it has a better development rate than NIT Patna thus devaluing its old establishment. Being an institute of national importance, IIT Patna has better facilities such as 24/7 open Computer Centers, a wifi-enabled campus, better classrooms, better hostels, etc.
- NIT Patna's development has come to a halt and its current scenario is just average. Whereas IIT Patna is still young and is developing further every year so you can expect it to become better every year.
So between IIT Patna and NIT Patna, IIT Patna is the clear choice.
Which NIT is better, NIT Patna or NIT Jamshedpur?
NIT Jamshedpur is much better than NIT Patna. NIT Patna lacks the necessary facilities. Moreover, its campus is very small in size. My brother completed his B.Tech Mechanical from NIT Patna, and this information was given to me by him.
NIT Jamshedpur has a better campus, and its placements are also comparatively better. But if you are an IES, GATE, etc. aspirant, NIT Patna is slightly better for you. It is located in the main city because of which, it has easy access to good coaching centers like Madeeasy and Ace.

What does NIT PATNA CSE classes look like?
One of my cousins visited NIT Patna for document verification. Initially, he was shocked by the old buildings but once he entered the building, the infrastructure left him in awe. He clicked a few pics of the CSE classrooms and labs. I am sharing a few below
CSE Classroom
The CSE lab had around 50-60 computers in one room. The hostels were under renovation and he enjoyed the cool breeze from the River Ganga at the back of the college. There were many places to hang around near the campus like malls and playgrounds. Although he found the campus to be a bit cramped, he was impressed by the facilities and the cooperative staff.
How good is NIT Patna campus?
NIT Patna has a very small campus that spreads across 35 acres. The campus is undergoing major renovations and construction so you can expect a better-facilitated campus in the future.
One of my friends was very disappointed when he got into NIT Patna mainly because of its infrastructure. But soon he made friends and started seeing the positive side of the institute. He realized that infrastructure does not matter much, the crowd, faculty, and ambiance is what make or break a college. The institute is home to some of the most talented individuals in the country.
So, don’t judge a college merely on the basis of its infrastructure and campus size. There is more than the eyes can see!

How is NIT Patna for civil?
NIT Patna is a highly reputed institution in India for civil engineering. The Department of Civil Engineering offers courses at the UG, PG, and PhD levels. The faculty members are highly qualified and have a good mix of experience and youth. Consider the following circumstances
- If you are looking for a highly paid private sector job after completing your graduation, then this college isn’t a very good choice for you. This is because very limited core sector companies recruit civil engineers like L&T, Adani Power, Paradon, Sobha developers, etc. The packages offered are very low below INR 10 LPA.
- If you are looking for a stable government job that gives you respect in society and connects you to the public, leaders, contractors, and builders, then NIT Patna is the best place for you.
NIT Patna is well known for its Civil Engineering branch. In fact, the main building of NIT Patna is the Civil Department. The department has highly experienced faculties who are genuinely passionate about civil engineering.
Hope this helps you!
