What Students Say

Likes

It offers a great placement after the course completion, companies like microsoft, amazon google, flipkart and other companies like goldman sachs come to recruit new freshers in their companies and even offer internships as well.
The fests conducted in our college are worth enjoying and marvelous talent is encouraged.
No fees hike policy.cost to study is a bit high for a government organisation but it's worth it.scholarship opportunities financial assistance and job opportunities are very satisfactory over here.

Dislikes

The scholarship availability should not be below 5 lakh.. it should be a larger number beacuse 5 lakh income is lower income than a lower middle class family.
The faculty advisor is a very rude and strict person who doesn't understand the student's problems.
Placements for lower branches are not that good and being a remote area more companies are not coming to college

The Review of NIT Rourkela

Likes

There are many things that I liked after coming to this college that is NIT Rourkela which is situated in the Steel City of Rourkela in Odisha and because i myself live in Rourkela so I am very happy to get this college.
The campus is very large in size, about 1200 acres and has all the facilities that one will need in any college.
Multiple fests are organized on a regular basis and the best part is students take care of all those things here.

Dislikes

First thing that I disliked is that the classes are a bit boring although it could be interesting but the professor are a bit lazy here.
Second is due to the large size one have to walk a much greater distance to go from class to class and that is very hectic during summers.
One more thing that I disliked is that in this college power cut is done only during exams.

Placement Experience:

The placement records are only increasing for this college every year. This year one of my senior has secured 1.2CR per annum package in an IT company. The employbility is high around 92% every year get placed with an average salary of 13LPA.

Nit Rourkela overall review from m.tech point of view

Likes

Basically from my point of view there is a lot of thing that should be appreciated like examination system is fully partial and as a student you would know each and everything on time.if i talk about campus life its one of the best part of college
life you get a lot of chance to flourish your personality as you head a lot of chance through different festival, sports event, concert. If talk about faculties all are highly qualified except some personally i dont like their teaching methodology.
Placement record of this college is really awsm almost 100%.In terms of infrastructure you get one of the best engineering college in india.

Dislikes

I also observed some of the flaws which should be improved like teaching methodology of some of the professor is not upto the marks they must be informed to improve through feedback collected by student. Apart from this Course work need to be changed
as some of the irrelevant subject is thought which is completely outdated in present scenario

Placement Experience:

Placement record of this college is really very good, almost 100% percent. For this specialisation highest package is around 38 lpa ctc and median is around 8-10 lpa. Major core recuriter are intel, qualcommn, mediatek, samsung, and many more Company from software industry, anylsyst, marketing, edtech etc. Im going to work in mnc

What is your review of National Institute of Technology, Rourkela (NIT-RKL)?

Akriti Banerjeelives in New Delhi

A friend at NIT Rourkela gave me a detailed review of her college the last time she visited me. Here are some highlights from her descriptive experience

NIT Rourkela has a huge, serene, and well-secured campus.
The institute has diverse clubs that promote extracurricular activities and their performance is better than most clubs of other engineering colleges.
Decent Internet speed is offered and the Dc++ is well maintained.
The hostels are well-maintained and decked with all the basic amenities one could ask for.
Students are actively involved in sports such as gymming and swimming.
The faculties are a mixed bag. Some are underqualified and lethargic while some motivate you to become a better person.
The institute boasts of an extensive entrepreneurship culture.
The institute needs to work on increasing its alumni base and the level of fests it organizes given the huge income the institute generates.
The placement scenario varies from branch to branch. It's decent for branches like CS while pathetic for others.
Rourkela does not have any places to explore and also lacks flight connectivity.
The city of Rourkela is one of the cleanest places so hygiene is not an issue here.
