Course Curriculum Overview
Course curriculum is excellent for my branch. It is very well coordinated with all the basics that are needed to cover aspects of this branch and it also overlaps with syllabus of GATE exam in this branch.
Internships Opportunities
Internship opportunities in this college depend a lot upon which branch you are taking admission in but sometimes even tech. Companies allow core students to sit for internship drive. It usually starts at the onset of 5th semester and you will be called for internship after end of 6th semester.
Placement Experience
As i mentioned above, placements are way above average. My dept. Average was around 10lpa but it is much higher for other branches. The placement percentage is easily above 80%. You just need to do the basic minimum and you will land yourself a job.
Fees and Financial Aid
As far as i can recall, we got notifications of around 5 plus scholarships in our entire tenure. Each semester's fees is around 1lakh including hostel and mess fees. Placement opportunities are pretty good too, considering it is the second best ranked NIT in India.
Campus Life
Infrastructure is way above many iits. Very nice hostel rooms with single occupancy starting 3rd year. The campus overall infrastructure is great too. Excellent sports complex and new dept. Buildings. NITK has over 10 student run clubs which people can join upon joining the institute.
Hostel Facilities
Hostel facility is above average but washrooms suck. We get shared accomodation till second year and after that single occupancy is provided. Hostel plus mess rent is around 32K per semester. Mess food quality is decent enough, just don't opt for Mega mess at any cost.
Admission
My jee rank was 31k but with obc quota i got obc rank of 7.7k and with its help, made it to dept. Of mme in nitk, surathkal. Application process starts from jossa counselling after you clear jee mains exam within the required cutoff rank.
Faculty
Specifically in my department, we had altogether 15 course instructors which are more than enough considering the batch size and all the faculties know their subject very well. Most of them did their PhD. From foreign universities too.
