Dear Aspirant,

The first criteria for choosing any of these NITs, is the branch you get in these NITs. For example if you're getting a core/top branch in one and some average branch in other then you must go with the good branch.

Some good branches are:-

• Computer Science
• Electrical
• Electronics
• IT
• Communication

Hope this helps Thank you.

Hello Aspirant,

According to the category rank you have mentioned in the question you have no chances of getting in to NIT Rourkela as per previous year's cut-off even after considering your Home state quota. As cut-offs for this year is not declared yet so we can guide you on the basis of previous year's cut-offs.

For complete details about previous year's cut-offs refer the link given below :-

Note that the cut-offs are bound to change every year depending upon various factors, so to get an idea we can use last year's cut-offs.

However I would recommend you to use JEE-Main College Predictor to predict the chances of your admission in different colleges  based upon your percentile and category :-

Hi,

National Institute of Technology, Rourkela offers a four years undergraduate course in Industrial Designing.

As the placement opportunities, there are few companies which offers placements for Industrial Designing. However, if have good command over Ui/UX design, you will be in a better position to get the job in Thermal, Honda etc. (4-6) lpa.

It is still not treated as the core subject in India which results in less opportunities for placements. However, NIT Roukela is the best place to pursue this course. After completion, you can go for higher studies in abroad or perform  internships to improve the chance of getting good jobs.

Regards

Hello there,

It doesn't really matter which college you're from as long as your engineering fundamentals are clear. I will agree that being IITians or an NITian does give you that initial boost. NIT Rourkela is one of the best college. Placement in chemical engineering is really good out of 65 students approximately 55 students got placed. And as per for BIT Mesra is also same in case of CSE and IT. But I think that mechanical engineering in BIT Mesra don't have much placement . So you should go with NIT Rourkela.

P.S.- It depends on your interest that which branch you want to take. Because you have to give 4years in that branch so you should choose according to your interest because knowledge will help you get a placements.

Good luck!!

Hello Saidinesh,

The JEE cut off 2020 is decided in the basis of the difficulty level of the exam,previous year cutoff trends, number of seats available at NIT Rourkela and number of candidates who appeared for the exam.Hence it is always difficult to predict the exact possibilities. Chances may also vary with the branch your choosing. Based on previous year trend the cut-off rank for CSE branch for OCB category male under other state quota was 1181 , for ECE - 1788 , mechanical - 3591, electrical - 3459 , civil -5570.Hence,you may have to get minimum above 160 for a decent branch.
