    College Infrastructure

    NIT Rourkela is a really a big campus which is filled with lush green surroundings and the finest buildings to accomodate the students with the best facilities. The hostel rooms are well maintained with all the basic amenities needed and the classrooms are well ventilated to provide best studying environment. The library has a wide range of resources and even has an online library. We use LAN which helps us with internet related stuff.

    Academics

    I am studying in Electronics and Instrumentation Engineering 1st year. The quality of teaching is brilliant. The curriculum is up to the date and evolves with the industry requirements so as to provide the students with the knowledge to lead a fine career. What I study makes me not only job ready but also makes independent.

    Placements

    The quality of placements are unparalleled. 909 job offers were given to students of different departments. The highest salary package was 42 LPA and was given to a CSE student. Maximum number of job offers were given to B.Tech CSE students. The college was very helpful for my seniors to get good job offers.

    Value for Money

    My course costs 1,20,000 RS per year and I feel I am getting my money's worth. The basic amenities and everything we need is provided for the students. The faculty, seniors and all make the college life the best phase.

    Campus Life

    There are variety of activities that students can indulge in like swimming, sports, clubs etc. The technical clubs will help with the students to prepare better. The other clubs like arts, dance, singing etc. will help the students with pursuing their interests.

    College Infrastructure

    Almost everything is available her in the campus and a large area is yet to be built later for many other facilities. Buildings and Hostels and other facility centres are well maintained as well. Hostel facilities need more improvement.

    Academics

    I'm studying ECE here and the quality of teaching isn't good.I don't feel quality is good in anywhere else in india as well. Curriculum is quite good but feels outdated sometimes. Sometimes i feel why i study these.

    Placements

    Apparently the placements are good here not great though. I've heard of average placement is around 8-10lpa for ECE students with highest package of around 20+ lpa to lowest of around 3lpa. Majority packages lies in 5-8lpa.

    Value for Money

    Not value for money after the covid19 situation where we were literally charged for everything we were not supposed to

    Campus Life

    best campus life only demerit is the presence of a nice restaurant but that does not keep it away from 5 star.

    College Infrastructure

    When we talk about NIT Rourkela,One of the best thing which cones to our mind ia its gret infrastructure which gives a good feel of college. Everything is great. Campus,Library facility, computer lab etc.

    Academics

    Academics not too good. But it's really not fare to judge a college in India on the basis of their Academics.Better to leave this criteria.Again if u ask its very poor as I have mentioned in the rating.

    Placements

    Placement is very good. Most of the software giant like Microsoft and Amazon come to recruit the students of NIT Rourkela. Even the non circuital branch3s have very good placement. Thus is really good.

    Value for Money

    Yes. We can say. Bcoz we get the facilities which requires more expense than we pay.Like if we talk about Library we olny have to pay 5000 for a qhole semester. Also electricity charge is included in Hostel Rent.

    its a good choice..!!

    College Infrastructure

    Lots of opportunities in facilities and infrastructure are available in our department. Classrooms are in good condition and hygienic, and labs have every equipment required for the experiments. There is a good library with central air-conditioners, and all types of books are available. There are some issues with Wi-Fi like slow internet. Quality of food is average in our college. Canteen is the best place, and you can hang out with friends. Medical facilities are good and sports and games too

    Academics

    Because quality of teaching is good and teacher's also have great knowledge and And all staff and faculty are also well qualified they clear our doubt, conduct tutorials class for better understanding and are very helpful

    Value for Money

    For my course i pay almost 90,000 per yr including the mess fees, hostel fees and other. So i think yeah that worth the money, but they also take money compulsorily for activites which we might dont want to perfrom like swimming , gym ,etc.

    Campus Life

    Hostels have the Wi-Fi facility which is slightly slow ranging up to few mbps. The quality of food in the mess is not that great and many hostellers rely on the canteens which each hostel has where food is strictly average. From the medical facilities point of view, NIT Rourkela offers you a medical center which is open 24 X 7 which also includes an ambulance incase of emergency.there are so many grounds for basketball, badminton, football, cricket, volleyball etc and a very large swimming pool

    Placements

    Yes ,this is most important part. Placement is not same for every branch . But overall placements are good. Even in my branch sometimes there are 100% placement ( reason for this is low batch strength i.e 40 ug students).

    Value for Money

    As my family income is less then one lakh per annum . So it costs nearly 70k per year . Note: It includes all expenditure .

    Campus Life

    I remember before joining this college many of my friends said college life of NIT ROURKELA is awesome. After joing I felt words can't describe how much we enjoy in college. Only I will say "The 4 years of NIT ROURKELA will be golden time of my life".

At this time oue faculty is trying to cover as much as possible and they are doing very hard wort with us.

    Placements

    I don't no much more about our college placement process because I have spent only 8-9 month in my college. But before admission I have read about placement on the official website of our college and according to that placement ratio is very good in my college. I think 60-70 percent+students were placed every year. In my branch average package offered was 6lac oer anum.

    Nit Rourkela review

    College Infrastructure

    The academic infrastructure is quite good and provides advanced facilities apart from the general basic amenities. However the hostel and residential area needs to be improved further so that the students can focus better on studies.

    Academics

    I'm studying Metallurgical and Materials Engineering at Nit ROURKELA. The teaching quality is good. The professors are very well versed with the course content and provide valuable insights song with the regular classroom teaching.

    Placements

    Placements have been good till the last year. This year students faced certain problems due to the covid 19 pandemic and hence the percentage of placed students was a bit less. However the trainning and placements committee did a commendable job.

    Value for Money

    The cost of course and living is very much affordable at NIT ROURKELA campus Rourkela. The academic as well as hostel and extra curricular activities is very much affordable for the middle class students.

    Campus Life

    Campus life is the best part at Nit ROURKELA especially. There are numerous opportunities for a student to do so much in any thing that interests him or her. The rich club culture of NITR attracts so many people.

    Others

    One can surely take admission at National institute of technology ROURKELA if he or she wants to do something great in life without really waiting for opportunities as many opportunities come your way.

    Moreover it's a very nice college and campus life is nice.

    College Infrastructure

    Here the college infrastructure is very good. We have all the facilities here. We have separate labs for separate subjects. Most of the classrooms are big and well maintained. Library is also vry good. Hostel rooms are also very good but due to less number of girls hostel we face some difficulties but that's manageable. Sports areas are huge . We have lan connection in every room of the hostel. Here the mess food is good.

    Academics

    The quality of teaching here differs from person to person and department to department. So in our department in life science department all the professors are very good and helpful. They follow the curriculum. The thing which i personally don't like in this curriculum is to include mechanics, electrical and electronics in a life science students curriculum and to include biology in an engineering student's curriculum.

    Placements

    Here the quality of placement is quite good. Most of the students who apply for placement get placed. And mostly computer science department students get good packages. Most of the students get good companies. Though i haven't experienced it yet but i have an idea from my seniors and friends.

    Value for Money

    For my course i pay almost 1 lakh per yr including the mess fees,hostel fees and other. So i think yeah that worth the money.

    Campus Life

    Here campus life is outstanding. A lot of clubs are here to engage students in different ways. Students join different clubs according to their interest. The campus is totally safe. Location is little away from the main market . The placeis so calm and quite. Here all the member of this institution is very helpful.

    Others

    I am having a great experience here. The extracurricular activities make students more cheerful. The fests and other events are very good here. And every student definitely miss this campus after passing out.

    College Infrastructure

    Infrastructure in NIT Rourkela is more than sufficient for a student. The lecture halls, library, laboratories everything is good and better than other colleges. Appart from academic infrastructure swimming pool, playgrounds, indoor stadium, tennis, basketball courts, Gym ets are available . Food is varies from hostel to hostel. Hostel and washrooms are always maintained.

    Academics

    Academic is one of the area which you have to take care about here. You won't get anything free here you have to earn every single mark. You have to take every test every lab seriously. Academic diversity is one of the main attraction in this college.

    Placements

    Placements are good compared to other colleges of same tag line. Every year almost more than 80 percent students get placed and rest choose higher studies rather than placements. Highest salary which is about 43 lacks for CS and average for undergraduate students is about 6 lacks according to NIRF.

    Value for Money

    ROI of this college is very good. What matters in the long run is your degree and the tag line.

    Campus Life

    Now the best part of NITR is its campus life. The night life and hostel life is awesome here. There are various clubs for various extracurricular activities like dance , singing, acting, coding, robotics etc . The fest and the festivals are also stress relief for everyone here. Students spend more time on their extracurricular then class hours.

    Others

    Every year almost thousands of students think to be here but only a few get the opportunity. If you get the opportunity then don't miss it.
