Remarks

I've always wanted to be a part of a government college, just the sheer stories I've heard from my Dad's experiences at his government college only propelled my desire. I ended up choosing NIT Rourkela given its ranking among other colleges especially in the field of research and innovation, that mattered alot to me because its what I want to pursue in my career. Its best features include the curricular and extra curricular club culture, the scenic beauty, the opportunities for projects and internships. I opted for Computer Science as it was a budding interest of mine from the age of 14 and given the immense scope in nearly all walks of life in the future, it was a no brainer.

Course Curriculum Overview

3.5

Curriculum is pretty outdated. Many NITs still take the whole of the 1st year teaching subjects that aren't even relevant to the a certain course. For example, students who opted for Computer Science still had to do subjects like chemistry, biology and mechanics in the first year. The lab facilities are pretty old and need to be updated. Faculties method of teaching isn't very extraordinary, they use the same methods year after year I.e slides, black boards, reading straight from course books.

Class Size: 83Course Fees: INR 1256000 per year

Placement Experience

4.5

Big companies like Amazon, Microsoft, John deere, SAP labs, Qualcomm, etc. Are very accustomed to NITR. Most students from the graduating branch get placed or prepare themselves for their higher studies. The entrepreneur cell of NITR has recently funded to regional startups based at NITR, Clavichord Academy and Yerevan Technologies.

College Events

Festivals are really well done in NIT Rourkela. Theres nearly 4 festivals annually and 2 of them being major ones with live performances from big names all across the country. Technical Festivals showcase the sheer talents and minds of the students body of work in NIT Rourkela and its always a commendable feat.

Fees and Financial Aid

Being a diaspora student, I could avail for the SPDC scholarship which provides a 50% deduction in the annual fees.

Campus Life

The facilities are being improved in NIT Rourkela. Especially recently with opening of a new lecture annexure which features smart boards and AC rooms. Sports facilities are really well maintained from the Olympic size swimming pool to renovation of the basketball courts and NIT Rourkela also hosted the latest Inter-NIT. Its definitely improving given how old the college is, its doing well.

Hostel Facilities

Since NIT Hostels are really old there isn't much to brag about. Rooms are fairly - small sized. Common bathrooms on every floor is cleaned once a day. For the boys hostel, you share a room with one other person and for the girls hostel you initially share a decent sized room with 3 other people. Facilities like Gym, washing machines(in 1 hostel), mess hall, canteens, reading rooms, laundry service are all available in the Hostels.

Hostel Fee: INR 15000 per year

Admission

Since I classify as a foreign student I joined the college through the DASA quota xam : SAT II, Year : 2019, Score : 2400/2400

"living the CUO life : a blend of culture, community, and campus comfort"

Course Curriculum Overview:

those course curricullams at central university of odisha is thought fully designed ,offering a balanced blend of theoretical depth and practical relevance. on eof the key reason why students opt for such courses like int mathmatiss is the seamless academic progression and strong foundation it provides for research and comprdative exams. that curricullum could be more better as it can be more practical. what we are studing is like 80% theory and just 20% practical. so i do think that could be more better. the quality needs to be improved.

The best and detailed review

Placement Experience:

As Rourkela is a tier 3 city the placement opportunities are no as much as the tier 1 cities but the college still provides placements oppertunities with a decent amount of starting package of 4LPA.The college brings alot of companies for job and intership through it's long and good establishment in the city. The students becomes eligible for campus placement from 5th semester onwards as they have enough projects. Infosys, Capgemini,Dalmia,etc companies visited and highest package was 4.5 Lpa and average was 4lpa with 2 lpa as the lowest. Getting a MCA degree afterwards is most preferable for getting a better job.

Course Curriculum Overview:

The curriculum is well organized by the authorities based on the latest medical aspect of our society. Practical classes and regular postings in hospital helps in better understanding. Being the only hospital in nearby cities, our hospital provides us a good exposure to varity of cases. Our Associate proff and HODs also look upto them and help us gain more real world experience. The best aspect of this field or if I have to say Why have I chose it is to serve the society. Absence of well qualified doc at the times of emergency is one of the leading causes of mortality in developing countried like India. Being in this profession, I just want to help people around me.

Honest and Genuine review of NIT Rourkela

So I choose these college over the others because of its relevant name and the hype of this college In India as It is Institute of national importance And also a government backed college and it is one of the most demanded college. So the colleges which I have applied to are DTU, NSUT, Nit Trichy, Nit Warangal, Nit Surat Kal And top 7 iits. No I was not rejected from the other college which I have applied to but the combination of branching and the college value Doesn't satisfied me for taking admission in that colleges. So the admission process for the Nit Rourkela Is that the eligibility criteria is 75% in 12th class And second criteria is to clear the entrance exam which is the JEE mains and also scoring a very good marks in it. Then by the centralised Josaa Counselling student will fill their choices ,lock and get allotments in the upcoming rounds of the josaa counselling. The ending rank to take admission in this college in the EC branch is about a 6000-7000 rank in the jee mains exam for the other state people. The Admission steps include 1)register and appear for jee mains 2) Get jee rank and register on the Josaa Portal 3) Fill college and branch choices 4) seat allotment in rounds; upload documents and pay seat acceptance fees 5) final admission after physical document verification at Nit Rourkela....Read More

Evrything about infrastructure was a plus point. Only negative point is the non availability of airport due to which some companies refuse to come a pick students.
