Remarks
Good aspects - NIT Rourkela is a well established college with a glorious past. The alumni network is amazing and is growing exponentially. Placement scenario is way above average and research opportunities are the best. The campus life is something to die for, club culture is thriving and amazing people from all over India and abroad join hands to sustain a conducive ecosystem for growing personally and professionally in all aspects of life.Bad aspects - Poor administration and rigid outdated curriculum.
Course Curriculum Overview
Course curriculum is mostly okay but it could be revamped. Academics is splendid but because of outdated curriculum it is not very effective. Most faculties are highly qualified professionals with PhDs from IITs and reputed foreign universities who have an indept knowledge of their subjects and help out in every possible way.Choosing any of the circutal brances is bery important as they get most of the opportunities.Overall estimate of faculty ratio would be 1:20
