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

NIT Rourkela review by mechanical engineering student

Likes

Campus size, greenery, morning and night walks
Mentors that support and guide you become what you want.
Clubs who let you do some projects of your own that you can also mention in your CV

Dislikes

Attendance criteria that is very high as per me
Lack of funding from SAC, some clubs fail due to lack of funds.

Placement Experience:

Students of final year are eligible for campus placement. Many different companies visit for different branches. For mechanical tvs, Bajaj, Suzuki etc come for placements. Some BPCL like PSUs also hire from campus.

An unforgettable journey of growth and camaraderie

Likes

The environment on campus is fantastic and spans 1200 square km.

Dislikes

Given that classrooms aren't really completely furnished

Placement Experience:

At my college, campus placements usually begin in the penultimate semesters, so final-year students are eligible.The best package stands out and demonstrates the quality of the chances on offer, while the average package emphasises how competitive the placements are overall. A notable proportion of students obtain placements, demonstrating the school's dedication to improving employability. The college offers helpful career counselling, promoting alternative pathways like further education, entrepreneurship, or internships, for individuals who choose not to participate in campus placements. After graduation, I want to use the abilities I've gained in the industry to make a significant contribution to the field I've chosen.

NIT Rourkela: Internship Opportunities

Likes

The campus life is very rich and lively here. There are a lot of things to try and explore.
The course curriculum is well articulated and the professors are approachable.
Extracurricular activities are encouraged.

Dislikes

The academic area is a bit too far from the hostel area.
Mess food can be improved and the menu should be changed periodically.
Infrastructure of some of the hostels can be improved.

Placement Experience:

Students from the 7th semester become eligible for placements. The college has been doing well in terms of placements. The overall average package for this year's BTech students was 13.89 LPA while the highest package offered was 83.60 LPA. More than 1300 companies visited the campus and the top recruiters include Microsoft, Deloitte, JSW Steel, etc. I am planning to go for further studies after getting the degree but not ruling out the possibility of backing an offer with decent package.

NIT Rourkela : Is it really worth it?

Likes

The size of the campus is huge and it's fun to just go on a walk or cycle around
The infrastructure is nice. But we do not have a dedicated department building for Civil branch
We have multiple restaurants and canteens inside the campus.

Dislikes

The in-time for girls is 12AM. Really unfair.
Also, the grading is weird and absolute, instead of being relative. They are so strict in their grading and failing students, it's terrible.

Placement Experience:

Final year students are eligible for campus placements. Most students aim for Software companies, but you'll have a very scarce chance of getting into the big ones if you belong to a non-circuital branch. However, some big companies like Microsoft (50 LPA CTC) let you sir for the OT and sometimes hire you in the name of inclusivity. Other companies like American Express, VISA, Wells Fargo also visit on campus and offer around 30 LPA CTC. Now, these companies have an eligibility criteria of only circuital branches. There are other Software and mostly Analytics companies that offer on average 20 LPA, and allow mosy branches to sit for the OT.

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.
