They are highly qualified and experienced with accurate knowledge about teaching. Obviously,our department is working on new updates and developments in our field.

    Quality of placement is dependent on recruiting companies which is very huge here. About 88percent students got placed. The highest package was of inr 5000000 per annum approx in Microsoft. Average salary is about 10 lakh per annum. The institute is purely supportive and makes this process a easy one.

    College Infrastructure

    NIT Rourkela is known for its infrastructure, the library has a very well-curated collection of information both of print and electronics with free wifi, the hostel life is something that should not be missed out on, the sports facilities and the fitness centre are well-equipped and maintained, the canteens make hundreds of students happy, and the health centre is available in case of emergency. Its a bit sad that we are missing out on all this due to the pandemic.

    Academics

    The teachers are very qualified and extremely knowledgeable. Due to the pandemic we are having online classes, the professors have done a great job transferring the media from offline mode of teaching to online. There are some issues like the internet connection being weak, the online medium getting monotonous etc. Its the best we can do right now.

    Placements

    The placements are very good from what the placement statistics and from what seniors have told us . Industrial design students got placed in Zomato, Think design etc as a UX/UI designer , interaction designer etc. Close to 90% of the students got placements.

    Value for Money

    Being a government institute, it is much more reasonable than a private institution. The facilities, infrastructure, and faculty are of outstanding standards. The institute also provides various scholarships for those who seek it.

    Campus Life

    The campus life is amazing. The club culture is stunning and it helps in meeting like-minded people. The fests are breath-taking from what we have heard. The campus life is something we are missing out on due to the pandemic but we are sure it will live up to the expectations.

    Others

    Studying in NIT Rourkela feels so surreal, it is of the best institutes of our country. The support from the seniors is un-imaginable, it already feels familiar even though I have never been on campus.

    Have a question related to NIT Rourkela ?

    If I'm interested in designing but scored a descent rank in JEE mains which is the better option ISDI Mumbai ( Product design) or NIT Rourkela (b.tech in industrial design)?

    Dear student,

    If you're passionate about design and have a decent JEE Main rank, the choice between ISDI Mumbai (Product Design) and NIT Rourkela (B.Tech in Industrial Design) comes down to your goals.

    ISDI Mumbai is a pure design institute focused on creativity, innovation, and hands-on learning. The program emphasizes real-world projects, portfolio building, and exposure to Mumbai’s design industry. It’s best for those who want a career in creative design , user experience, or product innovation. Admission is based on the ISDI Challenge , not JEE.

    NIT Rourkela , on the other hand, offers a design-oriented B.Tech that blends engineering and product design. It’s a good fit if you're looking for a technical degree with a design element . The course includes CAD, UX, manufacturing, and product development. Admission is through JEE Main and JoSAA , with strong placements and a top-tier campus.

    Your decision should align with whether you see yourself as a designer first or an engineer with design skills .

    Take your time
