Course Curriculum Overview

1.5

Studying in final year, i can proudly say that the course curriculum is not relevant to the work in a comapny whether its electronics or Mechanical. Course curriculum is not good even its too lengthy and without any means students are pressurise to complete it. Teaching method is too bad of some of the professors. I learned time waste from my professors. Some of the teacher are very bad at teaching. They should provide some papers, ppt and some parts of it but they don't speak in class they even don't provide ppts, they write on the blackboard and the whole class copy from that. it is not a good way to teach i think. for final year student they do the same.

Placement Experience

2.5

To be very Honest, Our college has only the name certification that it is a National Institute of Technology. The placement stats are not as other "National Institute". Very less number of companies visit colleges for campus placements. and after the recession.

Fees and Financial Aid

The Year wise fees is different as the hostel fees is not fixed in year. In first semester the hostel fees was INR10k and the institution fees was INR 13,800. All students are mendatory to give the hostel caution money i.e INR 5000, along with this there is the tuition fees, amount of INR 62,500. The fee Waiver students for whom full remission of the tuition fees is there, the students who are economically backward, whose family income is less than Rs. 1 lakh per annum. so for me it was remissed. and for SC/ST and PwD students, there is the benefit of 100% Tuition fee waiver whereas the other economically backward students whose family income is between Rs. 1 Lakh and Rs. 5 lakh per annum they are allowed to pay 2/3rd of the fees. when you change hostel, the caution money of Rs. 5000 is transferred to another hostel. for new hostel you just have to pay only the mess fees which was Rs. 15K in second year hostel. It was increased to 19K in third year.

Campus Life

2.5

Overall experience about the college is more or less not good. The clubs are very interesting here, multiple clubs focus on multiple field which help students to learn thing very easily and to make projects on that. infrastructures provided is good but when we talk about other NITs even lower in NIRF ranking they are very having very good infrastructure as well as sports facility.

Hostel Facilities

1.5

Three students are allowed in a room and the hostels are also good in these years. But in final and prefinal year three students are allowed in a room and that room is not for three students. along with room some hostel like Hall-2, Hall-1, Hall-3 are required to rebuild again or renovate. but i think ther renovation can't impact much because the hostel are of time of 1980. which is not good to live in. During tehe physical reporting, The hostel also got alotted. registration form is to be fillefd by the students physically and they are allowed to choose room whichever they want.

Admission

I chose the college because of my rank and i didn't do so research on it. I think, reviews on internet, are not so real according to recent situations. the reviews says that the professors are very good and supportive which i didn't find here yet. Admission process of the college is similiar as other NITs have. Admission letter recieved from JoSAA and CSAB along with all documents physical reporting is happened.

Faculty

2.5

To be honest, The Faculty member of the branches like CSE, ECE, EE, CHE are very supportive to the students. They provide notes and they are very casual to the class. They even cancel some classes if students requests for that. They give some hints and selected topics to the students for the semester examination. Even they give marks very easily, they don't expect much perfection in answers. On the other hand for some branches like Civil, MME, ME, BT, faculty members are very strict and even they pressurise the syudents too much. generally they don't support the students in their academics like they don't provide note, they don't give some hints and selected topics to the students before the semester exam. They expect perfect answer from the students even though they don't make students understand themselves. along with theory classes, They don't provide lab manual to the student. Students search on the internet before they start writing the manual. They don't give marks in lab also.

Placement Experience:

The Students here can apply for CDC Placements in Final Year and if I tell about B.Tech. Specifically then in 7th Semester of their course. Many prominent companies visit here for recruiting the brilliant minds like Google, Microsoft, Apple, Amazon, Intel, Qualcomm, Samsung, Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, Barclays, IBM, Texas Instruments, Tata Steel, L&T, Bajaj Auto, Flipkart, American Express, Infosys, Wipro, PwC....and many more. There isn't any data provided by our institute to us stating of the highest and average package by particular comapanies and the profiles offered. But I can tell you of my department's 2023-24 CDC Placement drive: We had the highest no. of offers that is 128. Highest offer made was 1.4Cr INR pa and Median and average package offered were 21-22 lakhs pa and 25-26 lakhs pa respectively. almost 87% students had got placed in the last placement season. The 2024-25 Placement season isn't over now, but till Dec 2 2024, again we had the highest no. of offers that is 20. If I talk about my future plans, I want to go into reasearch in VLSI Industry in future as the VLSI is Tech of the future.
