The teaching is good, with knowledgeable faculty and well-equipped labs. While the curriculum is solid, it needs better industry alignment. NITK offers a vibrant campus life and strong placement support, especially in core and tech-related fields.

Have a question related to NIT Surathkal (NITK) ?

U have scored 97.44 percentile and I have a sc rank of 1126.Can I get into Nitk Surathkal college for cse branch

Hello,

With 97.44 percentile and SC rank 1126, getting CSE in NITK Surathkal is very difficult. CSE cut-off for SC category in NITK usually closes at a much lower rank. You may try for other lower branches or other NITs where CSE cut-off is higher.

Hope it helps !

is nit surathkal civil ,or RV college EEE which cource is best

hi,

Both NIT Surathkal Civil and RV College EEE are good, but your choice should depend on your interest and future plans.

If you want the NIT tag, a strong campus, and are thinking about higher studies or government jobs, NIT Surathkal Civil is a solid option. It may not have the highest private placements compared to other branches, but it gives you good long-term value.

If you are looking for better placement chances in the private sector and want to explore jobs in core companies or even IT, RV College EEE is a smart choice. EEE also gives you flexibility to move into software jobs if you learn some coding along the way.
