    Verified Review
    College Infrastructure

    I think it's one of the best colleges out there with the best infrastructure and very hygiene. There are building for each of the department and well maintained also with proper lifts and cleanliness also.

    Academics

    The professors are very good and they teach us in very much detail. Everyone is very skilled in their part and they teach very well. They have the knowledge that you may not find in any other part of the country.

    Placements

    A nice placement history with good packages and most of the people get placed. Big companies like Google, Adobe, Microsoft, and many more come for the placement. Packages for the mass recruiter is also high.

    Value for Money

    Placements

    The quality of placement is good. Specially for computer science and electronics branch students. But anyhow all the students got placed. Min 90% of the total students get placements. The Highest package was 42 lakh and it went to Electronics branch. The average salary offered was 7lakh. The placement process is easy and pleasant. The college is very supportive.

    Value for Money

    Cost per year is very High. It's approximately 2.5 lakh per year. Unless one has a income certificate, it's very expensive to study here. But the education and facilities everything is worth of money.

    Campus Life

    The best thing in NITR is you get the exposure one can expect from a central government University. The worst thing is the attendance. 85% attandance is mandatory. Other activities like clubs and fest are good. You can find variety of clubs here. The college is well located and we'll secured. Approximately 200 security guards are here at every corner of the campus. The campus itself has its own bank, health center everything so no need to worry.

    GOOD OLD DAYS

    Verified Review
    College Infrastructure

    Nit Rourkela is well known for it's lush green campus and also equipped with best facilities like swimming pool, cricket ground, library and 24*7 internet facilities. The main building is well know for various academic works and also vs HALL is regarded as the second best hostel in Asia that can accomodate large number of students. The food is good and hygenic. You will get non-veg every day except monday. On sunday you will get chicken tandoor in nonveg which is very delicious.

    Academics

    I am pursuing my btech in industrial design department that includes basically designing softwares where you can work as UI/UX designer in the future. The quality of teaching is not good at all. Most of the professors tends to teach through slides and ppt. But the examination department is very strict ,they easily impose penalty for a small mistake also. Yes curriculum is updated but the fact is that the professors don't teach the whole syllabus, they skip most of the syllabus.

    Placements

    Beleive me when it's come to placement statistics, Ican assure you that you will definitely get placed if you work a little hard. Most of the IT companies comes to recruit thousands of students. Microsoft generall offer the highest placement package that is 42 lakhs/annum while the lowest is offered by TCS or Wipro(mass recruitment). Average salary generally offered to the students is generally 6 lakhs per annum.

    Value for Money

    The academic course cost 62,500 rupees per semester and the hostel charges, food, gym, library, etc cost rupees 30,000 per semester, so the total fees for the whole semester is 92,500. I am satisfied with the hostel charges and its facilities, but when it comes to academics the professors are not worth and they don't even guide you how to prepare for competitive exam. But there are some exceptional professors also.

    Campus Life

    Students can take parts in various clubs and SAC is well known for funding the clubs and organising various cultural events. The wprst feature is that it does not have groundsmen to maintain the fields as a result seniors will force you to work day and night in order to maintain the ground while mathches are conducted. Yes , it's quite safe with lush green campus and the workers are also too hardworking and helpful in nature. Yes, it can handle emergencies and Igh is THERE FOR MEDICAL SUPPORT.

    How's industrial refrigeration and cryogenic engineering in mtech at NIT ROURKELA?

    HELLO,

    If you are considering M.tech in Industrial refrigeration and Cryogenic Engineering at NIT Rourkela then let me tell you that it will be a great choice if you are inclined towards thermal engineering, refrigeration systems or research in cryogenics

    Here are some details points so you can understood better :-

    1.This program is offered under the Mechanical Engineering and it is quite specialized and the curriculum is well structured and includes advance subjects . The labs are well equipped and there is good exposure to work practically which will be a positive point.

    2.For admissions you need to attend GATE + CCMT counselling and the seat intake is limited to 15, so it is quite competitive

    3.If i tell you about placements so that is also good because students from this specialization have received good offers with some average package around Rs 9.5 LPA

    4.Cryogenic engineering finds applications in various industries , including agriculture , marine, welding and food processing

    5.NIT Rourkela is well ranked in india particularly in the engineering field

    Hope that Helps!

    Hello Community, A friend of mine is applying for Josaa councelling , based on his rank there is possibility of getting NIT Rourkela CSE , and by advanced rank IIT Hyderabad Biomedical Engineering Would there be any advantage of taking IIT hyderabad Biomedical engg in compariison with NIT Rourkela

    There are several factors to consider when comparing NIT Rourkela CSE and IIT Hyderabad Biomedical Engineering:

    Placements

    IIT Hyderabad: Has a high placement rate, with the highest package recorded at INR 90 LPA and an average package of INR 22.5 LPA in 2024. Some sources suggest the CSE department has an average package of INR 29.68 LPA. Top recruiters include Google, Microsoft, IBM, Capgemini, and Amazon.

    NIT Rourkela: In 2024, the average package was INR 13.43 LPA, and the highest was INR 120 LPA (ECE branch). For CSE, the average package in 2024 was INR 21.60 LPA, and in 2023 it was INR 24.07 LPA. Top recruiters include Apple, Google, Microsoft, Amazon, Wipro, and Deloitte.

    IIT vs NIT Tag

    IITs have a prestigious reputation, known for academic excellence and strong alumni networks. IIT graduates often secure higher placements and easier access to higher education opportunities abroad.

    NITs are also excellent institutions, offering strong programs and opportunities, although they might not carry the same brand recognition as the older IITs.

    Ultimately, the "best" option is subjective and depends on individual priorities and goals. It is recommended that your friend research both programs thoroughly, consider their interests, and perhaps consult with professors or professionals in both fields to make an informed decision.

    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 .
