    Overall very good experience

    Verified Review
    College Infrastructure

    One of the best among all NITs in terms of infrastructure for labs, advanced research equipment and other activities like sports, extra curriculars etc. Classrooms are spacious and plenty in number. Library is huge, may be the largest in Odisha. There are a 8 boys hostels and 2 ladies hostels. All are equipped with LAN and have separate messes. Food is a very subjective thing hence can't but comment but I personally never had any issues with the mess food,

    Academics

    Quality of academics is pretty good if not the best. Almost all faculty members are PhDs from reputed institutes both from India and abroad. NIT Rourkela has the highest research output in terms of publications in peer reviewed journals and total number of citations. Academic Curriculum was recently updated to make it for flexible and match industry standards. Biggest negative point is the ultra stringent attendance policy with 85% mandatory attendance in classes.

    Placements

    Decent placements if not outstanding. Only major disadvantage is location. Lack of a functional airport in Rourkela acts as an obstacle for some companies to visit campus. Average CTC approximately 7 LPA in my batch with highest being 42 LPA.

    Campus Life

    Very big campus (approx 1200 acres). Almost all facilities available inside campus but not much to do outside.

    Absolutely thrilling

    College Infrastructure

    College campus is huge and one of the largest in India, it has everything from numerous cafeterias to restaurants and canteens, 10 hostels to go with different mess in each of them. Worth the praise for its campus

    Academics

    Quality of teaching is about par, it depends on the teacher, most of them are good but can't be expecting much as it's a government institution. It's worth going for and you won't regret it for sure .

    Placements

    Average salary offered is around 7-8 lacs discounting the off campus placements, it has a decent campus placement probably a bit hampered by number of branches it has that are a bit unknown to other colleges

    Good facility and Good food

    Verified Review
    College Infrastructure

    Facilities and infrastructure of National Institute of technology are very satisfying and comfortable. It also provides Wi-Fi facility on the campus, and there are labs, classrooms and a library. Everything is well and good, and our Institute provides various opportunities for student

    Academics

    I am a student on B.Tech of faculty of Computer as it will provide me with an exposure to the corporative world and its competitiveness. The professors are good and the way they teach is pretty average. I guess the curriculum is updated

    Placements

    Well, placement of is B-tech very good, for M-tech you get placed if you are good in coding. Personality matters a lot. Some companies came with good package. I personally got internship offer from tata with 40k month and job offer in nokia with 10lpa. Though its not great but still, from power systems it quite difficult to get a job

    Value for Money

    Expensive, though in mtech we get stiphen of 15.4 k but for btech the fee is nearly 1.5lakhs per sem. Thats huge if you are not comming from good stable family. Forigen students are even charged more sometimes double

    Campus Life

    In mtechs there is not too much of extracurricular activities. Mostly people are focused in their projects, activities and getting a job. Though we play cricket and swim sometimes but nothing at a very good level. There is only one girl in our class, so no point on discussing gender ratio

    Others

    Institute is great, the infrastructure and facilities provided but i strongly feel something has to be done for the mess. If we were allowed to choose our mess the food would have been better

    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.
