Let's have a look what is going on inside NIT Silchar

Likes

Some professors of some departments are friendly and very knowledgeable.They inspire students for engaging in different academic research programs and m n academic programs also .
Students are from all over the india so there are diversity of students.This gives the opportunity of engaging each culture ,food and rituals all over the country.
This college have some student clubs and student manages all the events taking funds and sometimes there own money this inspires freshers to being active skill improvement.

Dislikes

Mostly professors are not friendly and outgoing minded.They only judge students their character, nature and basis of this they give them score in exams and humiliate them in classrooms.
Specifically in Mechanical engineering department their Hod and some other professor treat students as some ordinary objects, they don't care about their career instead they try to give backlogs repeatedly to pull the degree for more than 4 years.
Laboratories are not efficient and advanced we have to use very old and mostly inaccurate equipments and perform our experiments.

Internships Opportunities:

In our college NIT Silchar there are internship opportunities on research intern under guidance of faculty. If the project faculty is giving in internship is funded then students get a small amount monthly . Otherwise in summer internship for 3 rd year students there is an SN Bose internship opportunity which is under any faculty guidance and it's non paid .After completing the internship students should submit a report of their work with the final project to the faculty and get certificate . Internship presentation have a credit in 7 th semester so it's necessary to do summer internship after 3rd year completes.

The boys girls ratio is not good in my college and competition for taking girl is very tough especially in my branch i.e, in civil.
One more thing that is sometimes the slow process of college administration for doing the job. They just procrastinate the work.

Great college with decent infrastructure and a large campus

Likes

The campus is the best part. It is around 700 acres which makes it a small city in its own. It includes lakes, parks, food shops, football ground with flood lights, cricket ground, volleyball court, gym, indoor badminton court and much more.
Freshers here are entertained frequently with orientations, workshops, movie nights, garba nights, etc.
The institute has many different clubs and societies which help you in learning different skills.

Dislikes

The gym here is not well maintained. It lacks basic maintenance as many of the equipments are still broken.
The classes are also not well equipped. However, many of the classrooms include smart boards and decent infrastructure but they are generally used for CSE and EC branches.
The airport is quite far from the campus as it will take around 3 hours for you to reach the airport.

Internships Opportunities:

Generally, the internship opportuinites are provided to the third year students and almost all of the major companies provide internship opportunities to the students and roles vary according to the CGPA of the respective student. All of the information related to the tasks and projects are communicated by the Training and Placement Cell of NIT Silchar.

NIT Silchar: 2 Answered Questions

NIT Silchar is similar to all the other NITs like MANIT, NITJ, NITD still its cutoff/ranking is low, what are the probable reasons?

Sanjana KapoorLives in New Delhi

If you look at all the criteria MHRD takes into consideration while ranking institutes, NIT Silchar is at par with most NITs but in terms of research, and infrastructure. The only parameter in which NIT Silchar was behind NIT Warangal was reputation and the difference was drastic. This affected the overall ranking of the institute in turn lowering the NT Silchar cutoffs.

I think the major reason behind its poor reputation is its remote location and the rumors related to it. It's falsely rumored to be in a Naxalite region and the exposure is believed to be minimal. The institute has a bad reputation, particularly in North India.

I have friends from several NITs and I have safely concluded that NIT Silchar is better than many but it's difficult to convince people of the same and the institute has a bad reputation.

To fix this problem, we need our alumni to be more active in portraying the right image of the institute. Additionally, the institute should hold more inter-college events and strive to build a reputation.

Which is best among NIT Kurukshetra, NIT Jalandhar, NIT Silchar, and NIT Jaipur in terms of placement, hostel facilities, etc? Can they be listed in decreasing order?

Tithi AggrawalLives in New Delhi

The ‘best’ colleges among NIT Jalandhar, NIT Kurukshetra, MNIT Jaipur, and NIT Silchar can be evaluated by ranking these colleges on the basis of placements and official rankings.

Here is a comparative analysis of the placement statistics of these institutes

Institute	Highest Package	Lowest Package	Top Recruiters
MNIT Jaipur	INR 64.00 LPA	INR 12.43 LPA	Addverb, Adobe, Airtel, Amazon, Analytics Quotient (Kantar), Apple,
NIT Kurukshetra	INR 1.25 CPA	INR 13.89 LPA	ICICI Lombard, HCL Technologies, Microsoft, Adani Group
NIT Jalandhar	INR 51 LPA	INR 12.44 LPA	Microsoft, Google, Flipkart, Olx, Paytm
NIT Silchar	INR 44 LPA	INR 13.58 LPA	Amazon, Microsoft, Adobe, Arcesium, Intuit

Based on the above table, NIT Kurukshetra seems to offer the best packages. The preference order can be - NIT Kurukshetra>MNIT Jaipur>NIT Silchar>NIT Jalandhar

Here are the official rankings of these colleges released by NIRF in 2023

NIT Kurukshetra	58 out of 200 colleges in India in 2023
MNIT Jaipur	62 out of 200 colleges in India in 2023
NIT Jalandhar	72 out of 200 colleges in India in 2023
NIT Silchar	83 out of 200 colleges in India in 2023

Based on the official rankings, the preference would be - NIT Kurukshetra>MNIT Jaipur>NIT Jalandhar >NIT Silchar

Coming to the hostel facilities, NIT Kurukshetra has more advanced hostel facilities. NIT Jaipur too has decent hostels and has an incredible life outside campus owing to its location.

Overall, I would recommend you follow the following preference order

NIT Kurukshetra>MNIT Jaipur>NIT Jalandhar >NIT Silchar
