    College Infrastructure

    In National institute of technology Rourkela, there's an outstanding infrastructure and campus. It has all the facilities, may it be proper labs, equipments for practical or the things related to club culture. We have classrooms of wide space, a library of variety of books, in the sports centre there are all the facilities available be it hockey, or athelete or Cricket. In our hostels there is LAN connection with very good internet connectivity. And the mess food is also quite good and hygienic.

    Academics

    I'm enrolled in 4 year mining engineering course. And I'll say the teaching is good. The professors are much helpful. And yes, the curriculum is updated, we can't say 100% because the technology is growing exponentially but to a greater extent it is updated. And yes it has the potential to give job to a person.

    Placements

    The placement quality in NIT Rourkela is very impressive. It has placement percentage of 85%. The highest package offered was from Microsoft to CSE branch which was 41LPA last year. The average package is 10LPA. And as far as I know, as per senior experiences, the college is very supportive in this section and the process is easy and convenient.

    Value for Money

    The cost per semester in general is 99000, but there are many scholarships and fee waivers for the needy students. And the cost is definitely worth it because the wide exposure you will be getting is exceptionally good, the club culture will amaze you a lot, the seniors you will be getting are very helpful. The academics is also good. And I'm definitely finding it worth the money.

    Campus Life

    The campus is spread over 647 acres, that's really very big, although it is of 1100 acres but the rest is under construction. It is much eco-friendly, green, less pollution is there. The best feature is the campus itself. Once do visit it, it'll capture a space in your heart. The activities a student can engage is what you can think of, may it be sports or dance or debating, just anything you could think of. The students here are very multi talented. The location has good connectivity. It's safe

    Others

    I would like to tell the aspirants, if you are getting a seat in the college, definitely do a visit, then decide you will take admission or not. Personally for me, it is quite good. And do remember it is one of the old nits. So, it's reputation is also much high. So that's it.

    College Infrastructure

    I have been to the college and took a good tour two years back. The infrastructure, facilities, and equipments (gym, pool, etc.) are in great condition. The classrooms have smart boards which the professors frequently and regularly use, libraries have WiFi, sport centres are well maintained and hostels have a lot of facilities like, gym, badminton courts, a good common room, studying room, etc. The only issue is the rooms are a little small.

    Academics

    My branch is mechanical engineering and I am studying it because I was always fascinated by it. The quality of teaching is great, the professors are well educated and thoroughly accomplished in their field. The curriculum is updated as much as I know. The professors encourage us to keep up with the recent developments in the field. I am in first year so I am not sure about the job ready.

    Placements

    From what I have heard, the placements are great, some have better than the others because of the job opportunities in Orissa. I am not sure about the exact numbers but the percentage was quite nice and the average was better than the last time.

    Value for Money

    It costs me 2 lakhs per annum, and with all the facilities we get and the education quality I guess the value for money is very good.

    Campus Life

    We haven't actually had College life but from the seniors we have heard that it's quite great, we get to make a lot of friends and participate in a lot of activities, there are different clubs and events which we can participate in. The teachers are helpful and the students are jovial. The location is safe and there is a dispensary inside the campus and a hospital just next to the institute.

    My experience with the college has been so good and I hope it stays this way.

    Have a question related to NIT Rourkela ?

    NIT Rourkela mba admission cat cutoff how much for general crg

    Good Morning,

    NIT Rourkela CAT cutoff range is between 70-85 percentiles for the general category. 70 is the minimum percentile needed to apply, and 85 is the highest percentile. However, the maximum percentile depends on the particular year competition. It can be changed.

    Thank You.

    Hello,

    With 99 percentiles in JEE Main and OBC-NCL category under Odisha home state quota, your chances for CS at NIT Rourkela are quite low CS cutoff usually stays around 99.6–99.8 percentile for OBC candidates.

    However, you may get other good branches like EEE, Mechanical, or Civil in NIT Rourkela, or CS in lower-ranked NITs. Try to aim for 99.7+ percentile for CS there.

    Hope you understand.
