    It is a awesome college.
    Placements: The percentage of students got placed in my college is approximately 97%. The highest package is 52 LPA, the lowest package is 6 LPA, and the average package is 15 LPA-18 LPA. The recruiting companies are too good, and they can achieve bigger and bigger choices.
    Infrastructure: Scenic & well-equipped A 295-acre beachside campus featuring private access, lush green zones, and world-class sports facilities including swimming pool, tennis courts, gyms, and stadium. Everything is good, having this kind of college is okay. Mess food is decent.
    Faculty: NITK Surathkal is one of India's premier engineering institutions, particularly strong in core and technical branches due to its excellent faculty, research environment, natural campus, and placement success, if you're up for a slightly high. Faculty of AI isn't that good, most we have to do is self-study.
    Other: There are no academic or cultural restrictions.

    College has all the required things for students in all terms.
    Placements: The placement is always above 90% among the eligible students. Top companies like Microsoft, Adobe, and Oracle. It depends on the student's choice and their exploration in getting internships and top roles in any company. Students' abilities can drive them to get internships from outside also.
    Infrastructure: Wi-Fi is a little issue sometimes we get some suffering, but mostly we don't face it. It is not a big thing to be concerned about everywhere it's common. Everything is fine but sometimes there is an issue of food poisoning and all. We have good medical facilities and have an HCC inside the college open 24 hours.
    Faculty: Teachers are highly qualified and very friendly in teaching. Every course is useful for us and makes us better. Pass percentage is above 85%. Students abilities are tested in exams so it is important that every student has to be legit and cross that minimum mark. In many cases, malpractice is the reason for their failures so it's all the students' fault in this type of situation. But some lectures don't give marks though we are eligible sometimes it's really hard.
    Other: CSE is always a great course for those who have an interest in coding and that driven me to choose this option. Better ways of teaching the basics more carefully. All the activities are good. But if the budget is more than I guess that you will be more productive and useful for us in all terms.

    Really good infrastructure with excellent sports facilities.
    Placements: Almost 70% of the students got placed. The average package is 19 LPA while the highest is 52 LPA. For my course ECE, Qualcomm and Texas Instruments are major recruiters. Hardware engineer and analyst roles are offered. I am not very aware of the internships and all but placement wise it is good.
    Infrastructure: We cannot use Wi-Fi in our hostel but we have LAN facility in our rooms. Hostel facilities are good while mess food is not that good. Sports facilities are amazing, especially cricket. We have cricket kit, nets, etc. There is a health care center within the college.
    Faculty: Faculty members are highly knowledgeable and they teach well. Semester exams can be cleared by studying a night before the exam. As far as I heard from the seniors, the course is relevant and makes students industry-ready. Teachers are friendly and they are keen to share their knowledge.
    Other: I heard from a lot of people that NITK is one of the top institutes, and ECE branch at NITK has good demand. Events will depend on the people you have selected in the student council selection. Government gives scholarships to people whose income is below 1 lakh.

    Review of NIT Surathkal - National Institute of Technology.
    Placements: In the mechanical engineering branch, the placement percentage is okay and it is 85%. The highest package is 36 LPA and the lowest package is 6 LPA. The average package is 12 LPA, which is decent. Top recruiting companies for our course are Ola, Uber, Flipkart, Amazon, etc. 70% of students get internships if they do well. Many students go into the software field rather than the core field.
    Infrastructure: The infrastructure is good. New buildings are still being made and our department is old. Wi-Fi is there and classrooms are old. Tables also look old, but they are still good. The library has all the facilities with all the books. The hostel looks new but the food in the mess is bad. Sometimes, we cannot even eat that. There is one medical center in the middle of campus which is near the boys' and girls' hostels. Sports complex is also there which has all the games and a gym.
    Faculty: Our faculty members are well-educated. They have a lot of knowledge but they lack in teaching. The course curriculum is up to date. It is helpful in making students industry-ready for the core jobs. However, students prefer the software field. Semester exams are difficult but can be passed if studied well. The pass percentage is around 95%.
