Hi,

The placement stats for overall NIT Rourkela is good. However , Branch wise details is not provided by NIT Rourkela so in order to know about placement statistics of Electronics and Instrumentation branch, we have to ask for students of NIT Rourkela. As per details provided by students in various online forum, Around 70-80 percentage of students get placed from EI branch. The Highest package was around 21 Lakh this year while Average package hover in the range of 5-6 Lakh. The lowest package was in the range of 4 lakh. Overall , The placement for Electrical and Instrumentation branch is good in NIT Rourkela.

I hope this will answer your query.

Thanks!!!!

Dear Student ,

Electrical or Electronics and Instrumentation Engineering , both are equally good with the view of course content and teaching methodology ,  but if you ask related to placements , then I can prefer to go with Electrical rather than Electronics and Instrumentation as in most of the PSU jobs or core jobs(Ex: NTPC, GAIL, Railways etc)  , recruiters want EE or ECE branches more than EIE , No doubt that EIE also very challenging and conceptual subject. It will give you the knowledge of measuring instruments and other principals .. but due to the current demand in the job market scenario, you should prefer Electrical than EIE branch.

Hope this helps !

Best wishes !!

Hello aspirant,

According to my knowledge.....both colleges are good for these branches

Computer science will benefit you only if you are interested in it

Computer science and engineering at NIT is good choice for you because of the following points....

Job (Immediately after BTech) : Those who are really good at problem solving and competitive get placed in the top product based companies like google, Microsoft with salaries as mentioned above.

Those who are good at certain technologies and coding get placed in companies like JPMC, Wipro where they use those technologies to accomplish requirements of the company.

Average Starting Salary : 6–12 lpa (Depends on company)

Those who have good communication skills, decent skills in math logic and not expert in coding get placed in companies like TCS, Infosys where they work on certain tools used in projects.

Average Starting Salary : 3–6 lpa

As according to me, NIT Rourkela is better than NIT Patna. NIT Rourkela have high demand than NIT Patna. Where the infrastructure and tuition fees and placements are better than NIT Patna. So, I prefer to go through NIT Rourkela.
