Can a branch be upgraded in NIT Kurukshetra?
Yes, NIT Kurukshetra allows branch upgradation if you are unsatisfied with your current branch subject to certain conditions
- Vacant Seats: The chances of changing your branch depend upon the vacancy of seats since the seat intake is fixed. Each branch has a specific number of seats allocated to it by the institute and that cannot be changed. So there has to be at least one seat vacant in the branch you want to get transferred to. A few students drop out of college or go to better colleges thereby vacating seats.
- Demand for the branch: The next factor that will be considered is the demand for that branch. The more in-demand the branch is the lesser the chances of getting transferred. For example, IT and CS are highly demanded branches while ECE is least demanded.
- CGPA: One of the most important factors, often underestimated, is your CGPA. Your CGPA for the first year decides your eligibility to get a good upgrade. The higher your CGPA is, the higher your chances of branch upgradation.
The factor that is in your control is your CGPA so start working on it!
How is nit calicut regarding placements in cse?
The placement cell of NIT Calicut is good and is equal to other IITs. The non-Indian companies offer more than 28 LPA to freshers unlike the Indian companies. So there always remains a misunderstanding among candidates about the salary package offered. They used to think most of the companies offer a 40 LPA salary package, but these only include the companies in the US. Even Google India, Codenation, Directi offer not more than 24 LPA to the students. Based on these salary packages offered we can see that placements at NIT Calicut are really good.
In the following table, you will get the basic placement details of NIT Calicut.

NIT Calicut was consistent with a 99% placement record, offering students an average salary package of 8.5 LPA which gradually increased to 9-12 LPA.

However, the placement cell of NIT Calicut is good. Almost all students got a placement through a college campus. So, don't just go by the statistics, also talk to ex-students of that college and you will get to know the original salary packages offered to them.
