How good are Placements in NIT Rourkela for M Tech CSE? Please Help

The quality of roles and packages offer to MTech CSE students of NIT Rourkela depends on individual skills and expectations and therefore cannot be generalized. Here is a brief overview of NIT Rourkela MTech in CSE Duration 2 years (Full Time) Course Level PG Degree Total Tuition Fees INR 3.56 Lakh Total Seats 25 Highest CTC INR 34.2 LPA Average CTC INR 12.1 LPA Lowest CTC INR 3.6 LPA Median CTC INR 6.8 LPA Top Recruiters Accenture, Adobe, Amazon, Capgemini, Deloitte, Goldman Sachs, IBM, Infosys, Reliance Industries Limited Overall, the placement conditions are decent and not all students get placed. Most CS companies allow only BTech students to sit for placements and therefore Mech students end up in service-based companies like TCS, and IBM (GBS). This poor placement scenario stems from the outdated CSE curriculum at NIT Rourkela. The curriculum focuses on theoretical concepts only and students are not exposed to practical experiences. So, I will suggest you go for CSE M.tech at NIT Rourkela only if you are unemployed after your BTech or you want to pursue your career academically. Joining this course on the pretext of getting better jobs will not be a wise decision.

Admission to NIT Rourkela through GATE 2018 was conducted via CCMT Counseling, with three main rounds and a National Spot Round (NSR) for those not initially allotted a college. A refundable NSR registration fee of 40,000 INR was required, subject to conditions. The college boasts a knowledgeable and supportive faculty, fostering an engaging learning environment. The fee structure is relatively high, and there's a suggestion for making it more affordable.

Almost all B.Tech students secure jobs, and many M.Tech students receive offers by their 3rd semester. The average placement package is about 15 lakh for B.Tech students and 10 lakh for M.Tech students. Key recruiters include Qualcomm, Tera Data, and Accenture. B.Tech students also have internship opportunities with companies like Qualcomm and Intel, with stipends between 30k and 60k, though these are not available for Dual Degree and M.Tech students.

My Master's Experience in NIT Rourkela

The tuition fees here for mtech is around 35k which is pretty decent and till now there is no hike on tuition fees. And the complete semester fees is around 70k which got hiked after increase in mess fees. There is medical aid here, we don't have to pay for the medicines and treatment. We in mtech get a stipend of 12.4k per month.
