Hello student ,

The placement percentage of students in civil is higher than in chemical in NITK . The placement is 79 percent and companies like Google, Microsoft, IBM, Intel etc come to recruit last year with salaries ranging from 5 LPA to 37 LPA.

Around 90% of the students got placed. The average salary package offered is 6.5 LPA, and the highest salary package offered is 17 LPA. A lot of reputed companies visit the college for placements.

Though the placement percentage is high in civil engineering but the salary package is relatively better in chemical and rest is based on your interest.

Hello,

With your rank and category you have good chances of getting these branches as per your preference in NIT Surathkal:

  1. Information Technology (4 Years, Bachelor of Technology)  - CR:8752
  2. Civil Engineering (4 Years, Bachelor of Technology)    - CR: 16296
  3. Chemical Engineering (4 Years, Bachelor of Technology)    - CR: 10800
  4. Mechanical Engineering (4 Years, Bachelor of Technology)    - CR: 11800

Considering the Female Supernumerary seats are tentative in number you have a close chance at ISE, still I would suggest you to add two more options i.e Mechanical and Chemical to your choice filling. As trends of previous year's more options in choice filling gives you a better chance of getting a desired branch in subsequent rounds of counselling.

I would also like to add here that an engineering course should be very much taken with an interest in the field so I would suggest you to consider that factor and if you are not aware of the branches mentioned look them up on the internet more reliable will be to go through the syllabus on the respective colleges' website. An interest in the field is the key factor in deciding how your 4 years of college will be and what opportunities you will land for yourself.

Good luck, hope it helps!!

Hello,

Congratulations on getting such good college and branch options. I will give you a preference list which will comprise of all these factors:

  • Overall ranking
  • Infrastructure
  • Location/accessibility
  • Branch that you are been offered(Core/interdisciplinary)
  • Placement opportunities
  • Industry Exposure

The preference order you should consider is:

  1. Chemical Engineering
  2. Civil Engineering

As a branch considering the current scenario and employability status I would suggest going for Chemical than Civil because of the following factors:

  1. Less Competition
  2. More opportunities
  3. More PSU recruitments
  4. Wide options to go interdisciplinary
  5. Huge scope for PhD abroad

I would also like to add here that an engineering course should be very much taken with an interest in the field so I would suggest you to consider that factor and if you are not aware of the branches mentioned look them up on the internet more reliable will be to go through the syllabus on the respective colleges' website. An interest in the field is the key factor in deciding how your 4 years of college will be and what opportunities you will land for yourself.

Good luck, hope it helps!!

I believe with a ST Rank of 2001, being from Female Quota and Karnataka Home State, you have strong Chances of securing Mechanical, Civil and Chemical at NIT Surathkal, Karnataka. If possible you should add NIT Surathkal Mechanical to your list of Preferences, above Civil and Chemical.

You got very good rank.Based on your rank and your category there are a lot of chances to get your selected branches in nit.There is possible to get CSE,ECE,EEE.
BEST OF LUCK.

Hi

Your profile suggest that your home state is Karnataka. I am assuming you are from general category

You will be eligible for home state quota in NIT karnataka i.e NIT Surathkal

This is a bit difficult to predict the rank required in JEE mains to get a seat as cut off  keeps changing every year  depending upon various factors like  number of students that appeared in the exam, kind of marks obtained by them , toughness level of the jee main examination , number of seats available for the branch you want etc.

But yes,

When we go through previous year trend then ,

In round 6 of josaa counselling 2020 , 3115 rank  was the closing rank for gender neutral for general category for home  state in in nit Surathkal for computer science Engineering (4 Years, Bachelor of Technology)

You can check the same at

https://josaa.nic.in/Result/Result/currentorcr.aspx

So, you need at least around 3000 rank for computer science in NIT Surathkal under home state
