    Academics

    Academics is awesome here at NIT . it has strict rules for attending classes , performing experiments in lab and one can't skip these at any cost.professors may not be that good at teaching(situation of almost all NITs and IITs).

    Placement wise it's above average and below top 10 NITs. overall placement is very good, you can expect high packages if you are cs/ece student. and if you are in other branches then also you can grab good packages if your cgpa is good as many psu visit our campus.

    Campus Life

    Yeah campus is small you don't need bicycles to roam here and there but this small campus is really beautiful. The campus is being guarded by very responsible personals so it's safe also to walk in campus even in night too.

This year, the average package has been increased by approximately half the last year. Except the ones who did not sit for placements, almost all of the rest students are placed with good packages.

    Value for Money

    The facilities provided and the environment here lifts up the students, enhancing their skills and making it easier to achieve the dreams. This is worth the money being paid. The course fee that we pay every year is lower than the current one.

    Campus Life

    The college has a lot of clubs focusing on chemical innovations, coding, racing, dance and music, charity, entrepreneurship cell, etc. This helps in overall development of the students. The teachers are not different than any other college of the same level, but they support the students in the research and other parts of the academics.

    Others

    The students after 12th are sometimes disheartened by the important choices that they make in their lives. They should remember that every failure is a pillar to their success. Be patient and think before taking decisions at every step of your life. Life teaches you this along with patience but dealing with problems is necessary to decrease them. So enjoy the college because this time cannot be re-lived.

    Apart from learning you will learn very new things here.

    College Infrastructure

    Yes we have all the necessary equipment, facilities and the infrastructure here is really good. We have different buildings for different activities like student activity centre, training and placement building,halls etc. We have two separate buildings for classroom.We have separate buildings for all the departments.Our classroom is well equipped with lan connection, projector.The overall environment is so clean and filled with greenery and the mess food is hygienic but it sucks.

    I am pursuing B-Tech CSE here because of my interests in machine learning and AI.The professors here are knowledgeable but they don't know how to teach.Some are really good and can make you feel the subject while others are here just for their duty to teach. Yes i think my curriculum is updated.

    Value for Money

    It costs around 2 lacs per year but it does offer scholarships facilities like you have to pay one- third the amount of tuition fee if your parents income is within range stated by the college.

    I have some of the best memories till now in NIT Rourkela.

    Verified Review
    College Infrastructure

    National Institute of Technology, Rourkela, has one of the best infrastructure in India. It is far better than most IITs. Each branch has its own department and classrooms are well maintained. Recently the new acadamic block was opened and arrangements are made to shift acadamic offices to new building. The pavements are hygenic and the best part is that the institute is suitable for those who obsessed with nature. The academic area is full of greenery.

    Academics

    I am studying Mechanical Engineering, B.Tech degree. The quality of teaching is good, but we cannot say that it is outstanding. But the interesting part is NIT Rourkela, is known for its faculty who have an awsome background in research. Coming to the curriculum, we are being taught various softwares which will be very helpful in professional carrer.

    Placements

    The placements are decent and the best package offered in 2018-19 was 40 lakhs, and for software job. Coming to mechanical engineering 80-90% has been placed. Major draqback is transportation, the officials of companies were unable to cause there is only railway acceess, and no need to mention about the punctuality of Indian Railway, though there is private airport. The placement process was easy and pleasent.

    Value for Money

    For a normal candidate the fee is around 2lakhs(per year), if you have OBC reservation you have to pay around 70,000(per year). I feel that the college management is doing its best to prove its worth. There is some problem with mess food, but it will there for one or another since IITs, NITs have students from every state around India, and we have to compromise in case of food.

    Campus Life

    Campus is nice, when I enter into the college I fell in love with campus at the very moment, being from village I love greenery the most, so its quite obvious. Fests are really amazing part in engineering student life. There is always one or other event going on in the institute throughout the year. And we can enjoy every part of it. The professors are very supportive and provide guidence regarding future. They care the most. College has its own dispencery, and very near to hospital.

    Others

    NIT Rourkela, club culture is one of the best in India. For each activity there is around 2 to 3 clubs. And we are free to join whatever the club we want irrespective of our department. And if you are interest in research field NIT Rourkela is the best option though you are joining B.Tech.
