NIT Raipur: 6 Answered Questions

How is Mining Engineering at NIT Raipur? What can I expect my starting package to be (roughly)?

Satyam Purwar

NIT Raipur Mining Engineering is one of the best in the country. However, the prospects are very challenging so you will have to work hard to excel in this field. If you are confused about any branch, go through its strengths and weaknesses. For instance, a mining engineer gets paid handsomely but his working conditions are very challenging and may even affect his health.

Generally, the placement scenario of branches like CSE, IT, and mining is very good. Last year 62 offers were made to 70 eligible students. I asked my friend for the detailed statistics and here is what he shared

The maximum salary package offered was 55 LPA.
The minimum salary package offered ranges between 15 LPA - 25 LPA.
Around 85% of students got placed in various tech and non-tech companies.
Top recruiting companies are Vedantu, Adani, JSW, and Tata Steel.
About 40% of students got internships in non-core companies.

Overall, the mining engineering branch is a good choice if you are genuinely interested in the field.

Is it worth joining mining in NIT Raipur, which I got in 3rd round, in terms of placement?

Aditya MishraB.Tech from National Institute of Technology, Raipur

Given your rank of 2900, it would be very difficult to get CSE in these colleges. So you need a lot of luck during the Spot Counseling. If anyone withdraws their admission at the last moment from the CSE branch of these colleges then you might get admission.

There are chances of getting a seat in MSIT or BVCoE, but it is very difficult in MAIT. Here are the recent cutoff trends of both MAIT and BVCoE

MAIT Cutoff 2022

Round	JEE Main	IPU-CET
Round 1	19671	22910
Round 2	26701	-
Round 3	28594

BVCoE Cutoff 2022

Round	JEE Main	IPU CET
Round 1	33640	36573
Round 2	41775	41775
Round 3	42573	42573

Although the chances of getting CSE are low, you might get EEE with this rank. You can upgrade your branch to CSE by working hard.

I am getting mining engineering in NIT Raipur. Should I take it or drop a year?

Ragini KanodiaStudied at National Institute of Technology, Raipur, graduated 2020

NIT Raipur started with the Mining, Metallurgy, and Mechanical branches. These branches are highly regarded in the institute.

An acquaintance of mine who is an NIT Raipur alumnus advises against dropping out. Even after dropping out a year, some students sadly do not live up to the expectations they had set for themselves.
The best option in NIT Raipur is arguably mining. Some of the students of NIT Raipur prepared for the JEE to appear for a second time and they were able to score big.

I do agree with my friend that it will be better if you pursue your studies along with the preparation for JEE Main. This way you will have a sense of security and a contingency plan if things don’t turn out as planned.

What is the scope and current placement of mining in NIT Raipur?

Sreejita GuptaStudied Mining Engineering at National Institute of Technology, Raipur

NIT Raipur placements are good for Mining. This branch offers career scopes in PSU as well as in the corporate sector. Many core companies visit the campus placements. Vedanta Resources Ltd. is one such company. The average CTC offered for core sector jobs is around INR 5 LPA. Students also get recruited in non-core job profiles. The salary packages offered for non-core job profiles are around INR 11 LPA.

Which is better, mechanical in BIT DURG or mining at NIT Raipur?

Richa SharmaB Tech from National Institute of Technology, Raipur (2014)

The students can get better placement in NIT Raipur. One will get good opportunities and exposure in the mining branch too. Moreover, the experience at NIT is far better than BIT DURG.

The curriculum followed by BIT DURG and even NIT Raipur is outdated.
The institute is at least 10 years behind the current industry practice as compared to NIT Raipur.
At least 30 years behind if we compare it with the US or European schools.
The industry clientele had taken leaps and bounds in terms of technology and what the students study is old-era theories that have little relevance in practice now.
Many industries hire graduates through campus interviews, 1st train them for 3 to 6 months to prepare the students as per industry requirements and update the knowledge.

The table shows a brief overview of the institutions:

Particulars	NIT Raipur	BIT DURG
Median Salary	Rs. 9.5 lakhs	Rs. 6.5 lakhs
Highest Salary	Rs. 33 lakhs	Rs. 32 lakhs
Entrance Criteria	JEE Mains	CPET
Fees	Rs. 5.52 lakhs	Rs. 2.92 lakhs

So overall, if the students are into mechanical or mining, don't rely too much on what the book taught you, be aware of current trends and practices.

How is mining at NIT, Raipur?

Udita GhoseBachelor of Technology from National Institute of Technology Nagpur (2018)

Mining at NIT Raipur is certainly an interesting choice. The Mining branch is one of the oldest branches at the institute. It is almost 70 years old. I have a few friends at NIT Raipur and here is what they had to say about the Mining branch.

Faculty:The faculty base is great for the branch. They are experts in the field with years of experience. Try to get along with your professors. That way you can work with them on their projects. This will give you exposure to the field and you will also be able to make industry contacts.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure of the department is also quite good. There are laboratories for Rock Mechanics and Mining Machinery. The labs are also equipped with premium mining software.
Placements: Placement for Mining at NIT Raipur is also quite impressive. All the mining and cement companies visit the campus for placements.

Overall, NIT Raipur is certainly a good option for Mining Engineering. You will also have the opportunity to get a 3 day-long training at Kolkata at the cost of 40,000-50,000.
