B.Tech Civil Engineering National Institute of Technology Rourkela

It is a good one. The infrastructure is too good. The campus scenic views steal everyone's hearts. Coming to the cons.. The town doesn't have an airport,making it not possible for bigger companies to visit for placements. The placement record isnt that good. The attendance system is a bit strict. The academic syllabus needs to be optimised for each branch. But the studying environment is good. Club culture and everything is good too. But overall its good. I like it.

Even though a number of professors don’t completely agree with the insane attendance rules, the new director has ensured that they are followed to the last word. Students are expected to maintain 85 (yes, eighty-five) percent attendance! If you bunk/miss a couple of practicals (labs) or about 4-5 lectures, more often than not you’re given a ‘Back’ in the particular subject. Depressing statistics at NIT Rourkela.
