NIT Rourkela -( an honest review from its undergrad)

The subjects taught in the curriculum are as per the New Education Policy (NEP). We are taught about DC machines(motors, generators, etc.), AC currents, power systems, and digital and analog electronics which are useful in industrial work. Some improvements in the course curriculum can be made such as - reducing some syllabus that are only meant to be for exams and not in the field so that students get more time for relevant projects and learn new things. Exams are conducted once every two months. A semester is four months. The difficulty level is moderate but you have to really study well to do well in exams.

Internshis are generally availed during summer vacation after second year. The companies that visit are-accenture,tata,Wipro,etc... on a junior or trainer post. The stipend varies from 5k to 50k per month.

Placements in our college is decent. Students become eligible for campus placements in 4th year. Companies like Google, Microsoft, Accenture, amazon, Accenture,TCS,Wipro ,TATA etc... visit and make 50-60 offers 90% students get placed . My plan after getting degree is getting a job and preparing for UPSC

Tution fee in not increased regularly. It doesn't have any specific rule. Every year mess fee increases a little bit which doesn't affect you much. My complete cost of education in 400000 INR. after availing tution fee waiver ( otherwise overall fee in 900000). Student of sc/st category and other students of any category with family income less than 1 LPA get complete tution fee waiver. Students with family income between 1 LPA and 5 LPA get 2/3rd tution fee waiver.

Classroom with latest technologies, smart board, Air conditioned..

Hostel Life is quite satisfactory. Room is two-seater, we get two beds,two chairs and two tables along with a tubelight,a ceiling fan, a LAN. Meal quantity is phenomenal and menu is also very very good, trust me. You will love it. Registration process is very easy for hall accomodation, it gets done during admission itself.
