Course Curriculum Overview
So as an undergraduate mechanical engineer, I will deal here only with the mechanical curriculum of SVNIT. The mechanical engineering course consists of Thermal, Material and Metallurgical, design, production engineering. Here all of these are covered under the mechanical engineering course. The subjects taught in SVNIT for mechanical engineering, really feel it has practical applications in industries when you visit industries and see the applications of the theory that was taught in the class. that means it is going with the industrial applications much well. Only thing that need to be changed in the course is to increase the frequency of upgrading the course. I strongly feel that old-fashioned subjects are taught which are becoming irrelevant to the industries nowadays. The use of computers should be given more weightage. Software like CAD, Solidworks, Ansys, etc should be added in the syllabus. In every semester there are two exams mid sem and end sem 30 and 50 marks respectively.CT+qz 20mark
Placement Experience
According to new curriculum from 8th sem stufents get internships.Even student can go for interrnships in summer breaks on their own. major companies visiting the campus are microsoft, adobe, amazon,flipkart,tata,john dheere MG,suzuki,Merecedes benz, etc highest package offered last year was 48lpa and average was around 12lpa if we talk about mecahnical engineering branch in particular highest was18.85lpa and avg was 8.5lpa. in mechanical negineering 82%% students were placed last year while for svnit it was 88%. Talking about plans after graduation is for placement and aftersome years go for higherr studies inn IITs or foreign universities.
Fees and Financial Aid
The increase in tuition fees is actually not controlled by the university it is controlled by the NITS head office located at NIT Rourkela. To be fair the tuition fees is very much affordable and there are no hikes ever seen in the tution fees. Even there are too many scholarships provided by the central govt. and other NGOs also. If we calculate the complete cost of education along with hostels for a general student who does not avail of any scholarship and fee remission. it costs aroud 7,50,000/- tution feee 62500 per sem and hostel fee around 55000 per year there isremission in tution fee according to family income ,2/3 remission for income 1-5 lakh per anum and full remissionn for less than 1lakh per anum. there is no remsison for hostel fees. Gujrat govt provides scholarship tp non genral students of gujrat only and there aremany scholarshipp schemes that private orgnization and NGO's provide that are available on SVNIT web page, Phd scolars and mtech students get stipend of ?35000/- and ?12400/- per month
