Review of NIT Jamshedpur - National Institute of Technology.
Placements: Almost 100% of students are placed in my course. The highest package was 92 LPA. The lowest was 4 LPA. The average package was around 20 to 25 LPA. Almost 50 to 60% of students got internships. The top roles offered were RSDE and Data Analyst.
Infrastructure: Facilities included Wi-Fi, labs, smart classrooms, and single occupancy rooms. The infrastructure was enormous and very good. The quality of the mess was maybe a little disappointing, but the canteen was good. The medical facilities were also good. Sports and games were one of the best facilities provided by the college.
Faculty: Teachers were helpful, highly qualified, and very knowledgeable. The teaching quality was average. The industry exposure was very good. The semester exams were pretty tough because it was an entire one-college system. The pass percentage was around 85 to 90%.
Other: I adjusted the scores because I could attend or achieve both core and non-core roles. The best thing about this course was that it was very flexible. I could learn both coding and core subjects at the same time. I wish the core subjects were not made mandatory, as it may be better for students to choose what to do and what to achieve ahead. The events and fests were outstanding. The campus crowd was very nice. Connectivity was also very good. Campus surroundings were a little bit dull. The cricket events were very nice.

College is pretty good in terms of hostel infrastructure and the lecture hall.
Placements: Placements are good. Placement percentage is good, which is real and not made up. All branches have good placements. CSE and Electrical are the highest package holders of the college, and here the coding culture is quite good because every senior is either doing great in any of the departments.
Infrastructure: First year, third year, and fourth year hostels are too good, and the first year hostel is the best hostel among all NITs for freshers. The hostel is good, but the mess is not good because mess food is not edible, which is 5 out of 10. It's only good on special dinner or lunch days; other days it's bad.
Faculty: Faculty are okay, they are not that strict. There are a few who do rough marking in exams and never give good marks, but there are some of them who give good marks too. So, choose wisely which subject to study much and which to take slightly, it all depends on the proof.
Other: All things are good except the campus life and mess food.

Shades of NIT Jamshedpur.
Placements: Recently this year 94.5 percent of students got placed across all branches in B.Teach. Talking about ECE my branch 95.3 percent of students got placed. The highest package offered is 144 LPA, the lowest is 4 LPA, and the average is 13.4 LPA in the B.Tech 2026 passout batch. Top recruiters like Amazon, Flipkart, Microsoft, Optum, Atlassian, etc., come here to recruit freshers. Talking about internships, there is a lower percentage of students who usually get internships and about 35 percent of students got internships in ECE 2026 passout batch.
Infrastructure: Infrastructure is good and they provide 24/7 Wi-Fi LAN, good labs with centralized AC, and classrooms are also good with centralized AC. The library is of average size, not too large and not too small. Everywhere you will get Wi-Fi facility and AC which makes it count as good infrastructure.
Faculty: Some professors are very helpful and most are not because of the outdated curriculum. They teach very well but they used to teach similar things that have been taught since the 80s. I would say 50 percent of the curriculum is relevant. This curriculum doesn't make you industry-ready, but it makes you goal-oriented and focused on exploring yourself. Exams are a little bit difficult and the passing percentage is good enough of 94 percent.
Other: I chose B.Tech ECE because I love to explore both core and non-core. College infrastructure can be improved and the curriculum must be updated. Ojass and Culfest are the main fest of NIT Jamshedpur and each branch also has its own fest.

Highly satisfied because of good placements and good faculty members as well as seniors.
Placements: The placement of NIT Jamshedpur is amazing. Since it is a tier 2 college, its placement is similar to that of a tier 1 college. You can judge its placement by just a few points. Firstly, the average package of the CSE department is 27 LPA, which is the highest among all NITs. Secondly, the placement percentage of the Metallurgical and Materials Engineering department is 100 percent. Lastly, the placement percentage of the Civil Engineering branch was always above 90%, and this year it has reached 100%, the same as the metallurgy branch placement.
Infrastructure: There are a total of 14 hostels in our college. A few hostels have been built very recently, like Hostel L (1st year hostel), which has facilities similar to a 3-star hostel. There is one badminton court in that hostel and two volleyball courts. The quality of food you get in the hostel is quite decent. There is one Lecture Hall complex and one old academic building. You will get 24/7 Wi-Fi and LAN facilities. There is one library that is open 6 days a week. There is one dispensary where you can visit a doctor for free, and all sports facilities are also available.
Faculty: As we know, in each college of India, the same old curriculum is going on. Teachers are very supportive. You won't find any difficulty, and proper guidance will also be available there by teachers as well as seniors. The semester exams are not too tough, but you have to study a little bit daily or at least one week before the exam. Almost 95% of students pass the exam in college.
Other: The college is improving itself day by day. Everything is fine here except for one thing: there is no auditorium. So, sometimes students face problems when events are conducted in OAT or TSG (these are areas where our small events happen). For bigger events, we have a huge parking lot area as well as the ground. You will easily get scholarships here like FFE and NSP. The NIRF ranking of the college is improving day by day; currently, it is 82.
