What Students Say

Likes

It offers a great placement after the course completion, companies like microsoft, amazon google, flipkart and other companies like goldman sachs come to recruit new freshers in their companies and even offer internships as well.
The fests conducted in our college are worth enjoying and marvelous talent is encouraged.
No fees hike policy.cost to study is a bit high for a government organisation but it's worth it.scholarship opportunities financial assistance and job opportunities are very satisfactory over here.

Dislikes

The scholarship availability should not be below 5 lakh.. it should be a larger number beacuse 5 lakh income is lower income than a lower middle class family.
The faculty advisor is a very rude and strict person who doesn't understand the student's problems.
Placements for lower branches are not that good and being a remote area more companies are not coming to college

Experience at NITR

Likes

Campus life is great as you have opportunity to experience everything.
Course- courses are well designed and accordance to the GATE pattern
Fest- many fests organises helps you to chill out of the exam pressure and will make you feel good

Dislikes

Strict attendence policy- as many have suffered due to this.
Low boys to girls ratio which makes you feel like same gender person are surrounded every where
Huge campus- which is sometime very much irritating to cycling 2-3km to reach lecture hall and academic offices

Placement Experience:

From 7th semester students are eligible to sit for campus placements. Some the major campus visits are Microsoft, Oracle, Wels fargo, Barclays, Accenture, BPCL, ONGC, Tata steel, Vedanta, Nation with Namo, etc. And may more. Almost more than 90% placed in each branch with min og 90% in civil dept. While many branches have 100% placements record. My plan after degree is to pursue higher studies.

Ground truths of NIT Rourkela

Likes

The infrastructure is one of the best in India. The campus is really huge and adds lots of memories. It also has lots of reataurants inside it.
Most of the professors of my branch are really approachable, and very helpul for projects.

Dislikes

Sometimes the food is not of good quality in mess and sometimes the staff behaviour is not nice.
The studies here for circuital branches is really hectic and less time for extra curricular.
Just before endsems some professor just dont teach nicely and teach for sake of completing the course , hence adding lots of pressure during endsem exams

Placement Experience:

Placements are quite good in our college. Almost everybody can get placed if they have decent preparartions. For branches like circuital , Cs and mining its 100% most of the time. There were 1000 offers for btech courses last year in 2023. Higest package was 91 lpa from Uipath from Elcetronics and Instrumentation Engineering and lowest was 4 lpa from utkarsh small finance bank. The other companies they come are Microsoft, Oracle , texas instruments , qualcomm , American express , John deere and many more. My plan is get a job in core industry in company such as texas instruments or qualcomm or any better company.

What is your review of National Institute of Technology, Rourkela (NIT-RKL)?

Akriti Banerjeelives in New Delhi

A friend at NIT Rourkela gave me a detailed review of her college the last time she visited me. Here are some highlights from her descriptive experience

NIT Rourkela has a huge, serene, and well-secured campus.
The institute has diverse clubs that promote extracurricular activities and their performance is better than most clubs of other engineering colleges.
Decent Internet speed is offered and the Dc++ is well maintained.
The hostels are well-maintained and decked with all the basic amenities one could ask for.
Students are actively involved in sports such as gymming and swimming.
The faculties are a mixed bag. Some are underqualified and lethargic while some motivate you to become a better person.
The institute boasts of an extensive entrepreneurship culture.
The institute needs to work on increasing its alumni base and the level of fests it organizes given the huge income the institute generates.
The placement scenario varies from branch to branch. It's decent for branches like CS while pathetic for others.
Rourkela does not have any places to explore and also lacks flight connectivity.
The city of Rourkela is one of the cleanest places so hygiene is not an issue here.
