Student's Review On NIT Silchar, Silchar

This is a college of National importance. It is the second best college for technical students after IIT Guwahati. The branch I got here is also regarded as a good branch here. And the placement scenario of the college is also considerable

The course curriculum is similar to that followed by the other NITs throughout the country. There is a strict 75% attendance exists here. Total 2 major tests conducted in a semester they are Mid semester and End semester exam.Mid semester contains 30 marks and end semester contains 50 marks. The rest 20 marks are carried by minor test, class tests and internals which includes assignments and marks based on class performances of the students. All of the faculties here are extremely qualified. All of them have a masters degree or PhD Scholarship from renowned universities from India and from various foreign universities too. On college website,the CVs are attached against each faculty.

From the branches Computer Science and Electronics and Communication, there's almost 100% placement takes place. The salary goes to as high as 32 lacs. The average package hovers between 5 to 7 lacs. Many renowned Indian companies as well as MNCs take part in the campus placement. There is always more number of job offer registers against no of students. In the other branches, the placement scenario is also good. This year the Civil department couldn't stand out that much in the placement scenario. Overall, the placement scenario is very good compared to its contemporary colleges of the region
