Students in the 7th semester are eligible for campus placements. Many MNCs like Apple, Google, John Deere etc come here to shortlist the candidates. The highest package that was in the engineering department was around 2 crores per annum while the average sits around 15-20 lakhs per annum. All of the students who have applied for placements get placed. I would like to pursue my higher studies abroad right after a get my degree.

- 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.

- 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.
