Course Curriculum Overview:

Course was easy for most of the cases or times, but felt some difficulties in some subjects like NANO, topics like surface plasmon resonance, etc. Timings are good and feasible, you'll get a lot of free time for whatever you want to do.

Dislikes

Being a South Indian, should adjust with the food
No summer and winter holidays for masters students

Placement Experience:

Being one of the top tier colleges in India, NIT Rourkela is having decent placement record from many years. Coming to my batch and our seniors, almost everyone got placed with a decent packages. I got placed into micron with 20lpa package even in this hard recession times. Opportunities are more than enough for the students and it's all about students efforts and hardwork to get placed in a good company. As per my batch 60lpa is the highest and 5.6lpa being the lowest package till date. Top companies like Google, Microsoft, AWS, Amazon, Texas Instruments, Oracle, Micron, do visit our campus and many more. Students who are having a decent CGPA of 6 or more will be eligible to most of the companies. Some companies even allow students having backlogs and CGPA less than 5. To being in the safer side, it's recommended to have a CGPA of 7 which makes eligibility for 90% of the companies.

Infrastructure and Eco Friendly Campus is too good.
Medical facilities like free medicines and treatment

Dislikes

Placement Opportunities are less because of no airport in Rourkela
Climate and weather here is very unpredictable

Course Curriculum Overview:

I must say the curriculum is relevant to the course here for mtech cse. All the different subjects hold its own importance according to the course. But I didn't like the teaching methods of faculties here. Sometimes it feels like PPT presentation class. There are two exams in one semester. Mid Sem Exam and End Sem Exam and they both are pretty much normal not too difficult.

Likes

Beauty of the campus and campus life and facilities.
Availability of wide range of sports infrastructure.

Dislikes

The campus is great but the city has not much to offer.
There is no sports coach or sports faculty for overseeing sports activities and infrastructure. Almost everything is managed by students.

Placement Experience:

M.tech students become eligible for internship from 2nd senester itself. From 3rd semester they start getting full time opportunities too. Mtech students can go for 6 months or 11 months long internships if their guide permits. There are many big names among the companies visiting this campus including Microsoft, google, qualcomm, texas, tata, mahindra, bajaj, john deere, Mediatek, micron, tcs, infosys, accenture and many more.

NIT Rourkela: 1 Answered Question

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.

These were some snippets from the detailed experience shared by my friend. Hope this helped you.
