4Placements4Infrastructure5Faculty4Crowd & Campus Life5Value for Money

Really well-furnished infrastructure of our college with a new building and very good placement.

Placements: 43.5 percent of students got placed in the batch of 2021, and 59 percent in the 2024 batch. The top recruiting in my branch in the 2025 batch is 13.5 lakhs in Flipkart and 13 lakhs in Sigma, and the top recruiters are L&T, Flipkart, and many others. An internship is mandatory for every student after the second year, so it is a necessary thing and a role in a company as an SDE at Flipkart.

Infrastructure: There are different labs in our department, like the concrete technology lab, surveying lab, geotechnical lab, and AutoCAD lab. There are ample number of classrooms in our department. We have a 3-story library in our college, and the department also provides a seating area for studying in labs and departments. For the hostel, we have a well-equipped hotel with sports facilities like table tennis and badminton court, and a gym with a common room, library, TV room, and fully air-conditioned mess.

Faculty: Teachers are well-qualified and knowledgeable. They have published many research papers, and they also have good teaching experience. The course curriculum is industry-ready, skill-based, and laboratory-based, all of which are needed for a job in civil engineering. The college exams are a little bit difficult, but above 85 percent of students pass the exam.

Other: The honest reason behind this is my rank, but after getting to this college, I understand that college is a choice, not a branch you can achieve in any branch or any stream.

College life is good and interactive. The seniors are the best.

Placements: A lot of students, more than 95% in each branch, have been placed. The maximum package was 53 LPA, and other than that, the off-campus highest package was 1 crore LPA. This has been one of the highest so far. Many recruitment companies come, such as Adobe and Google.

Infrastructure: There are approximately 15 hostels for boys and three hostels for girls, namely the MGH, the ILD, and GH1 and GH2. GH1 and GH2 are allotted to the first year, whereas the other hostels are allotted to the girls of the other years. The senior and junior interaction is good, and the in-time for girls is 10 PM.

Faculty: The faculty of the college is very good and interactive. They teach in a very good way and address doubts well. Only sometimes do the exam levels go much higher than expected, but the overall scores become good if one follows the syllabus relatively.

Other: There is not much extra, but being an NIT, it has all its benefits.

Life at NITJ is experienced by every student.

Placements: The placement rate is good, with 91%, and the average package is 11 to 12 LPA, the highest package in the CSE branch is 52 LPA, and the average package in the CSE branch is around 15 LPA. So placement-wise, the college is good compared to other good colleges in Punjab or India.

Infrastructure: Infrastructure is good, and all basic facilities are also good in the college, like gym, library, and classrooms, which are neat and clean. Also, Wi-Fi facility is available throughout the college. So infrastructure is good and nice, and basic facilities are provided.

Faculty: All faculty are experts, and most of them have completed Ph.D. in specific subjects. Some persons lag in teaching, but their concepts are mostly clear. The curriculum is also well updated and includes modern subjects and topics. In one year, 4 exams are conducted, and 2 exams are conducted per semester.

My college is good, but my department is not.

Placements: In my department, ie. Mechanical engineering. All the students who were eligible are placed. Basically, CG above. The highest package is 18 LPA from EIL, and the lowest package is 3.6LPA from Proxima and Infosys. Top companies are Amazon, Flipkart, and PSUs. Around 40% students got internships from my course in BIS, Honeywell, and Mondelez. Top roles offered are for a Design Engineer, Data Analyst, and GET.

Infrastructure: The facilities of NIT JALANDHAR are awesome. Institute Wi-Fi is everywhere, even if you dont recharge, you will be surviving easily on Wi-Fi throughout the whole campus. In my department, the labs and some of the classes are not air conditioned. Labs, I can understand maintaining the temperature of the setup, but in classrooms. The quality of the mess food is average, edible. In the first year, I got such good food, but when I jumped into the second year. I got food poisoning and stomach infections, but my body adjusted. Medical facilities are good, we mech boys take out multivitamins, skincare.

Faculty: Mechanical teachers are famous in our whole college for their strictness. Teachers are helpful, but only a few. The course curriculum is outdated. Ice engines and all. Semester exams give no gaps, no preparatory gaps. They set hard papers. You have to study to get good grades.

Other: I will be honest, the campus life is boring, 0 exposure. I chose this course because I wanted to be placed in an automobile company. Events are dead. Scholarships are mainly for low income families with an annual income of below 2 Lakhs.

Lively campus life and scope for improvement in industry exposure.

Placements: In chemical engineering, around 50% of students were placed in 2021. The highest package for chemical engineering was 16 LPA. The lowest package was 3 LPA. Average package was 5.5 LPA. Recruiting companies were Reliance and Trident. 20% of students got internships at Reliance, Trident, and IOCL. Junior engineer due to covid placement was less.

Infrastructure: NIT Jalandhar's chemical engineering department provided well-equipped labs, Wi-Fi, modern infrastructure, and good library. Hostel facilities were decent. Mess was very nice. Food was good. Rooms were clean in single room 2 occupancy for 2 years, 3 occupancy for 1st year, and 1 for 3rd and 4th year.

Faculty: Teachers were helpful. All teachers were Ph.D. qualified. They had good knowledge of the course. Course curriculum was relevant. Mostly for IOCL and production, IT subjects were there so students could take placement in IT industries. Passing percentage was 4 CGPA. Exams were average, not that much hard.

Other: You could take a course based on your marks in JEE exam. I have an interest in chemistry so I chose this course. Overall, you will enjoy here. It provided a nice experience. 2 major events happen every year.

Good for career but a little bit disappointing campus life. It is small space close to other areas.

Placements: There are 85 students eligible for placements and out of which 75 get placed. The highest package offered is 18 LPA, and the lowest is 8 LPA. Top recruiter is Trident. Top roles are in management and sales. 88.8% of students have gone for placements. Placement statistics are good in college.

Infrastructure: Infrastructure of college is good. There are two libraries, one is traditional and other is digital. Students can borrow books from the library. There is good service of Wi-Fi on campus. Medical facilities are also good as there is one dispensary open from 9:00 AM to 7:00 PM daily. There are two ambulances on campus for emergencies. Mess facilities are also good. Food for every region is provided as per the weekly schedule. Hostel rooms are good for every year but in case the first year goes for BH1, BH2 because good facilities are provided there. There is a gym at the college.

Faculty: Teachers are well-qualified. Curriculum in some branches are relevant to today's industry. College exams are tough enough if someone has not attended lectures properly. Question papers are based on class learning. You have to attend proper lectures and take notes from your teacher.

Other: So my batch is 24-28 B.Tech mechanical engineering. My father is an automobile mechanic so I had having typical interest in this field. It is also considered an evergreen branch of engineering so I chose this. Some of the subjects are now irrelevant to our course college is removing them one by one. Events are good in college they happen only once in year the large event utkansh for three days. Campus crowd is also good. There is no ragging system. Students enjoy the company of each other. Scholarship section is also there which is very helpful.
