It is a good college but with zero freedom.

Placements: In 2023, 100% of students got placed. In 2024, around 15-17 students were placed. The average package has reduced in 2024 to 8 LPA. The highest package offered was 21 LPA. Companies like Oracle, Samsung, Infosys, TCS, Wipro, Ashok Leyland, etc., visit our campus. Around 160 companies visited and offered a minimum package of 3.6 LPA.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure is good. Hostels are very nice and clean 90% of the time. It is well maintained. The mess is nice for a few days and unbearable for a few days. The medical room is so far, and we would give up even before reaching there. An ambulance usually comes if there is an emergency situation. If the ambulance fails to come, then the in-charge person of all this is so bad, that they will not allow our personal vehicle or let the guard drop that person at the main gate boys hostel, to the main gate, which is 1.2 kilometers. Courses are also good and they have implemented NEP.

Faculty: Faculty members are biased. They favor kids from their original state, and this might be affected more. Exams and the course curriculum are fine. The course curriculum might not make students industry-ready. Semester exams are usually passed by everyone.

Other: The best thing about my department is that even though subjects are tough, faculty members are nice ( except for a few of them who are very partial towards a few students). Events and fests are okay because we will make friends and we will enjoy them, no matter how bad the college is in terms of freedom.

NIT Goa has shifted to the new campus.

Placements: Last year and the year before the placements were not that high but generally a lot of companies visit our college for placements and hire a good number of students. In 2022, the campus placements for CSE, ECE, and EEE were almost 100%. Almost all students got internships but it is generally off-campus.

Infrastructure: NIT Goa has shifted to the new campus in 2023. So everything is new and it has fresh infrastructure. We have a 2-floor library, one with books and one as a study hall. Lab equipment and classrooms are brand new. I would rate 2.5 out of 5 for the quality of mess food. Medical facilities are great. We have a separate building for it and a 24x7 ambulance near hostels. We have a very big ground for games. We have a basketball ground and a volleyball court. Inside the hostel, we have a badminton court.

Faculty: All the teachers are PhD holders from top IITs and NITs so they are great at teaching. The course is carefully designed for each department and is very relevant to the corporate market. NIT Goa follows relatively grading. The difficulty level of exams can be rated as 5 out of 10. Almost 90% of the students pass all subjects.

NIT GOA's genuine review.

Placements: Placement scenes in NIT Goa are average. The highest package in NIT Goa is 44 LPA, while the average package is around 8 LPA, and the lowest package is 6 LPA. Top recruiting companies are ORACLE, TCS, and NSE. 100% of students who appear for placements get placed, while some opt for off-campus placement too.

Infrastructure: As our college is newly built in January 2024, so infrastructure is top-notch. We have more than enough Wi-Fi routers right in front of our room and in every building. We have all types of labs for all branches of students, and we have a proper library having all books that are required. The best part is single rooms in hostels.

Faculty: Yes, all of the teachers are too polite and helpful and cooperative in studies and extracurricular activities too. The semester exams are not that hard. If we study what all the teachers teach, then we can easily score, and they also ask us to refer to some books for our betterment. The pass percentage is 50% relatively, or 5 CGPA in every subject and lab.

Other: I choose ECE electronics and communication as it's an exploring field, a hill branch, as a senior told me before coming here, and having mostly the highest package on the campus There are a lot of events and fests. We have also collaborated with TEDx and SPIE, and there are a lot of scholarships.

National Institute of Technology, Goa is one of the emerging NIT.

Placements: Normally 80 to 90 percent of circuital branch students are placed. The lowest package is around 6 LPA, with the average being 11 LPA. The highest package was 23 LPA this year and 44 LPA the previous year. Companies like Samsung, Infosys, Accenture, and various PSUs come. The roles offered for my course are mostly software developers, as many students prepare for that. Other than that, roles like VLSI engineers are also offered.

Infrastructure: After switching to the new permanent campus, the infrastructure is top-notch. We have a huge library, department blocks, teaching block, ground, etc. The mess is within hostels. The only drawback is the boys hostel is around a km away from the teaching block, although it's within campus. Therefore, having a bicycle is recommended.

Faculty: The teachers are all from different IITs and abroad universities, but the course till my year was outdated; with the implementation of the New Education Policy, it changed, and now the course and curriculum are comparatively better. The exams are really difficult, but relatively grading helps score a good CGPA. The continuous evaluation means you'll be having some sort of minor or assignment always.

Other: I chose ECE because it is considered one of the evergreen courses. The choice was correct, as you get the opportunity to sit in almost the same companies as CSE plus companies specific to ECE. So go for it, but keep in mind that the academics for ECE and software skills for CSE have to be balanced, which makes you exhausted.

NITG is definitely one of the developing NITs, as it now has its own new campus.

Placements: NIT Goa has good placements, and in the branch Civil, it also has good placements. Students got average packages of 13 LPA. Government companies & MNCs do come here for placement. It has good placement of cells, which is very good. All you need is skills. If you have good skills, you will get placed .

Infrastructure: Infrastructure is so good as we shifted to our new campus. So everything on the new campus is new & good. Canteen, medical facility, etc.—everything is good. Faculty members will help you in everything. Also, you will get single rooms from the first year in this NIT, which is a very good thing.

Faculty: Teachers are supportive & good. All are polite & of a helpful nature. Every course has highly qualified teachers. Exams are definitely tough, as it is engineering but a hardworking person can definitely do it. But definitely figure out which branch you like most .

Other: Everything here is so good. We have our techno-cultural festival, Saavyas, of NITG, and then we also have the Prasang event of the Inter Branch. If you are really interested in construction planning & all, you can choose civil engineering, but if you don't have any interest, then don't choose it.

Good experience, good faculty for core branches and good placement records.

Placements: Around 95% of students were placed in good companies like Amazon, NSE, Oracle, Samsung, Intel, etc. with an average package of 15–16 LPA. The highest package offered was 44 LPA by Amazon. Meanwhile, the lowest package offered to 6 LPAs by L&T was the management post. Currently, the institute has tie-ups with NIO and Persistent Technologies, which offer internship programs to students.

Infrastructure: The hostel's condition is decent. Wi-Fi, due to being BSNL, fluctuates a lot but is decent whenever required. But if the network goes down, it takes a lot of time to bring it up. This makes it difficult for the students to sometimes complete their assignments.

Faculty: Teachers are very helpful, at least in the core branches. There is not much knowledge about non-core branches. The curriculum is well defined and is suited for competitive exams. Pass percentage every year is 90%+. So overall, all semesters are difficult; even just 3rd year maybe a bit challenging due to tight schedule of curriculum .

Other: I had gotten a respectable 98.75 percentile in JEE during the COVID-19 pandemic. Also, I am a native of Goa. So, due to pandemic factors, I decided to take admission at NIT Goa. I was getting CSE in NIT Goa so I decided it was better to take the best possible branch if I was going to stay in Goa itself. I would like a dedicated high-end lab in our college, at least for the core branches, where they could explore high-end technologies. The environment is very good. The climate is very good. The campus is very close to a major city. The institute provides internships at the National Institute of Oceanography as summer interns to academically excellent students. The curriculum is a bit strict so it's sometimes difficult to do part-time freelancing.
