Placement Experience:

The placements of the college is pretty average as most of the core companies have not visited the college for more than two times. Companies like OIL, PGCL, ONGC, etc have visited the college very few times and come after a gap of 2-3 years. Moreover, they choose only 1-2 students from each department. Tech companies like Tech mahindra, cognizant, etc come to the college but offer pretty low packages of just 4-6 LPA.

NERIST: 2 Answered Questions

Is NERIST good in terms of placement?

Ramya SagarStudied at North Eastern Regional Institute of Science and Technology (2018)

NERIST was once considered one of the best institutes in the region. The placement record was remarkable and according to the standard of the industry. 

However, the quality of the institute has started to fall in the current situation. It does not fit as per the mark of a Regional deemed university. Companies like Tech Mahindra, Power grid corporation, Wipro, Oil India, Infosys, Cummin India, TCS, visit the campus nowadays. 

Categories NERIST
Placement Percentage 60%
Highest CTC 10-12 LPA
Average CTC 3.6 LPA

The institute is expecting more recruiters as there is a railway facility in Arunachal Pradesh. Apart from on-campus placements, you can also look for off-campus placements and government jobs.

Will I get a 100% job after I finish my engineering from NERIST?

Shreya PalitStudies ECE at NERIST Nirjuli (2021)

Since you are concerned about whether or not the institution will be able to offer you a complete 100% placement opportunity, then it is important for you to understand that an institute, regardless of its prospects, can never ensure placements. 

You definitely have a good chance of exposure in the fields of mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, and civil engineering. According to the placement highlights the highest CTC offered is 3 LPA. Most IT companies come for the placement drive. 

The institute will offer decent opportunities but you also need to put in efforts to get decent placements.
