All About NIT Jalandhar

Speaking from my IT Department perspective , we have a great curriculum ranging from important AI/ML topics such as probability which includes various distributions and regression to basic electrical engineering because these are basic subjects which a engineer should know . We have great labs for each subject including the environmental sciences lab , electrical lab , computer lab . Just the drawback is that the curriculum is really hectic since there are assignmnets , quizzes , viva-voca and projects and presentations because of which we get less time to sharpen our skills espically in first year.

The internship opportunities are also good and year by year it is increasing . The highest stipend offered was by microsoft which was 1.25lac . Various companies which hire students for internships are Google,Microsoft , Adobe , Amazon ,UKG and many more . These companies are open for many roles such as SDE , SWE, Full-Stack Developer , Web Developer and one thingwhich they see is the CGPA and the projects you did in these years.

From 5th Semester students are eligible for internships and placements if they have the required skillset.

Getting into NIT is simply based on your JEE Mains Score which is conducted every year twice one in January and other one in April . And to get into NIT Jalandhar you a really good percentile and a good jee score . Since my rank in JEE Mains was approximately 18K (98.9%) so I was having many options to apply for including NIT Allahabad , NIT Jaipur , NIT Rourkela etc . but was not getting a very good branch as my inclination was towards tech-industry ans coding was my main motive.

Teacher to student ratio is 1:10 . The professors and teachers are highly approachable and always welcomes our doubts. Personally , I like Mr. Simranjit Sir from IT department and Mr. Arun Rathore sir from Electrical Engineering Department . Teachers are expert in their respective fields and the curriculum is finished well before the exams so that the students can prepare themselves for the exam . Exams are moderately - tough and conducted in two phases - mid-semesterand end-semester .

Specially for the first year students timings are little strict . For boys hostels , the timing is from 5:00 a.m. to 7:00p.m and same applies for the girls . But from second year timings arevery flexible and one can roam around at any point of time in day. We have a dedicated gym for the gym-enthusiasts and we also have variuos cafes suchas NESCAFE,VERKA, DOMINOS and SNAKKERS .
