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

Nit Rourkela overall review from m.tech point of view

Likes

Basically from my point of view there is a lot of thing that should be appreciated like examination system is fully partial and as a student you would know each and everything on time.if i talk about campus life its one of the best part of college
life you get a lot of chance to flourish your personality as you head a lot of chance through different festival, sports event, concert. If talk about faculties all are highly qualified except some personally i dont like their teaching methodology.
Placement record of this college is really awsm almost 100%.In terms of infrastructure you get one of the best engineering college in india.

Dislikes

I also observed some of the flaws which should be improved like teaching methodology of some of the professor is not upto the marks they must be informed to improve through feedback collected by student. Apart from this Course work need to be changed
as some of the irrelevant subject is thought which is completely outdated in present scenario

Placement Experience:

Placement record of this college is really very good, almost 100% percent. For this specialisation highest package is around 38 lpa ctc and median is around 8-10 lpa. Major core recuriter are intel, qualcommn, mediatek, samsung, and many more Company from software industry, anylsyst, marketing, edtech etc. Im going to work in mnc

I believed there was a good future for the EE which inspired me to apply for this course.When Our faculty focuses on subject they would also teach us along with the real time benefits.Difficulty of the exam varies with corresponding subject and respective faculty with mid sem and end sem exams at 2months

Campus life, greenary, atmosphere, stress free environment
Facilities, Fests and events, clubs, coding culture
Swimming pool, Sport's events, Badminton courts, cricket ground, and football ground.

Dislikes

Being a South Indian, should adjust with the food
No summer and winter holidays for masters students
No Pongal holidays will be given for South Indians

Placement Experience:

Being one of the top tier colleges in India, NIT Rourkela is having decent placement record from many years. Coming to my batch and our seniors, almost everyone got placed with a decent packages. I got placed into micron with 20lpa package even in this hard recession times. Opportunities are more than enough for the students and it's all about students efforts and hardwork to get placed in a good company. As per my batch 60lpa is the highest and 5.6lpa being the lowest package till date. Top companies like Google, Microsoft, AWS, Amazon, Texas Instruments, Oracle, Micron, do visit our campus and many more. Students who are having a decent CGPA of 6 or more will be eligible to most of the companies. Some companies even allow students having backlogs and CGPA less than 5. To being in the safer side, it's recommended to have a CGPA of 7 which makes eligibility for 90% of the companies.

NIT Rourkela: 1 Answered Question

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.
