Explore NIT Rourkela

I chose this course because of my rank and the reputation of the college. Course curriculum is good and we have so many labs to explore. I would say faculty is to student ratio is kind of equal. Qualification of all the faculty are PhD. When comes to teaching method, it differs from teacher to teacher. And not all teachers spoonfeed us like in school, here it's all about self study most of the times. One semester is for 4 months, after 2 months we have mid-sem exam for 30 marks and at the 4th month end-sem for 50 marks. In between we have class test, assignment and attendence which will be marked for 20 marks. Difficulty of the exam varies from teacher to teacher and the subject. But it's easy to pass on overall view.

Students from third year can sit for internship placement. In our branch, no core companies visit, so students mostly opt for non-core placements like data analytics or coding and other students opt higher studies. I'm also planning to go for higher education abroad.

Though it is a central Government College, the fees for 1 semester goes to minimum 1lakh. But there are tution fee waiver for students having annual income below 5 lakh and below 1 lakh. Also depends on the category of the students, like SC/ST students have benefits in financial assistance in tution waiver. Here no scholarship is available as far as I've seen. No campus jobs available. But education loan is available in the college from SBI.

Campus Life is amazing here compared to many IITs. It's a vast campus with good infrastructure in each department and lecture Avenue. Cycle is used by 90% of the students. We have 3 big fest. technical fest called INNOVISION (in October), cultural fest called NITRUTSUV(in march) and Multi-ethnic fest -COSMOPOLITAN (in January). All types of books and journals are available. Too many books and journals for academic purposes. Department classroom is good with black and smart board with projector but non-AC. Lecture Avenue has AC classrooms with black and smart board with projector. We have a large ground DTS and NCC ground, two basketball courts, large badminton court, volleyball court, kabbadi and kho kho ground etc. We also have so much variety of clubs like dance, music, Rotaract, and many more like rainbow dot.

If girl, you'll be alloted 3/4/5 seater room as there are only two hostels for girls. But many boys hostels are there, so they always get 2 seater rooms. Each student will get a separate table chair and cot with one open shelf. Meal quality is bad though their menu has variety of both north and south Indian dishes. In the institute portal, you'll be alloted the hostel and the room number. Room rent is affordable.
