NIT Surathkal Departments and Schools

Hi...Ok...so Instrumentation and Control Engineering is a unique, circuit-oriented branch, and the academic structure at NIT Trichy is excellent, making you eligible for most companies that visit campus. Placements are decent. This branch has a good scope as well. If you're not familiar with what it entails, it focuses on sensor manufacturing. Just look around you and see how many sensors are part of your daily life. That's the potential! You might feel at some point that you left the core branch of Mechanical Engineering, which is also offered at MNNIT Allahabad. It's definitely an evergreen branch; you'll always find opportunities in the market, no matter the situation. People are generally more aware of Mechanical Engineering, but few know about Instrumentation and Control Engineering if you ask around. NIT Trichy is ranked higher than MNNIT Allahabad in every aspect. NIT Trichy is ranked 1st, while MNNIT Allahabad is around 4th or 5th, if I remember correctly. I chose NIT Trichy over MNNIT Allahabad, and being from U.P., I can confidently say it was the right decision. I opted for Metallurgy at NIT Trichy over other branches at MNNIT Allahabad. I wasn't getting any core branch there, by the way. I've learned and improved in many ways that I wouldn't have otherwise.

Placements at NITK are quite good ,especially for core branches and IT-related roles,with many reputed companies visiting the campus.The college also provides good exposure and support,making students well prepared for jobs,higher studies, or competitive exams after graduation. From 7th semester onwards students become eligible for campus placement.

I liked professsor Hari Mahalingham sir he is such polite ,kind and a good motivator also and he is my deparment faculty advisor also. There are so many acaemic exams ,quizes ,labs and marathons. for mojor studies there are some courses ehich varries semesterwise firstly quizzes are held ,and at the middle oof the semester the midsem exam is conducted, and again some lab exams and quizes after that at the end of semester endsem exams are taken.The students which are not passed courses due to some reasons they are again given opportunity to write makeup exam ,so overall academics are fine.

The mess food is average in quality ,with a fixed weekly menu offering both south and north indian food.taste may vary sometimes.but it is managable and hygienic. Hostel and mess registration is done through an online / offline process at the start of the academic year or semester and affordable. some students stay in surathkal locality close to campus,the locality is generally safe and convenient for students.
