NIT Rourkela M.Sc Atmospheric Science: Fees 2026, Course Duration, Dates, Eligibility

Admission to the college for M.Sc students involves qualifying in the JAM exam and participating in the CCMN counseling, while B.Tech and Integrated M.Sc students enter through the JEE Mains exam and subsequent counseling. M.Tech candidates are required to qualify via the GATE exam, followed by counseling. The faculty performance is mixed; some are dedicated and helpful, while others prioritize research over teaching. The semester fees are manageable, ranging from 28,000 to 38,000 INR for SC/ST students and 34,000 to 42,000 INR for General, OBC, and EWS students, with variations due to included mess fees.

Placement opportunities are limited, with few coaching institutes recruiting, highlighting a need for greater institutional focus to improve outcomes. Internship opportunities exist, but those within the institute lack fellowship support. Scholarships for financially weaker students are available, though limited to about 1-2 students per course, supported by alumni and accessible via the scholarship portal. The Prerna scheme offers SC/ST students approximately 80,000 INR per year.
