Good placements, green campus, amazing fests, and really good facilities.

Placements: I am in 3rd year, so I will talk about my senior batch of Computer Science students. More than 85 percent of students are placed in very good companies with good packages. The highest package, as of my knowledge, is 60 LPA offered to a student by Meesho. The average package is about 18 LPA, and the lowest is about 7–8 LPA. Top recruiters include Amazon, Oracle, IBM, Meesho, and Wells Fargo. About 60 students secure internships at top companies like Google, Amazon, and Goldman Sachs. The top roles offered in this course are software development engineer (SDE).

Infrastructure: The infrastructure of the Computer Science department is very good. It has the latest computer labs for students to get hands-on experience with the latest technologies. The whole department and classrooms are equipped with Wi-Fi for efficient connectivity. The college library is also very good, with many books and a proper quiet reading environment. Hostel facilities are well-ventilated with all basic amenities. Hostel mess food is also very good. A medical health centre is available for treatment of any illness. A big sports ground is also available for playing different sports.

Faculty: Teachers are very helpful and knowledgeable. They have multiple degrees and are well qualified. They teach different concepts and provide in-depth knowledge of every topic. The course curriculum is very relevant for Computer Science. It prepares students to apply CS concepts in real life and become industry-ready. There are three exams held across the semester: Mid Semester 1, Mid Semester 2, and End Semester. They are of moderate difficulty, and good practice leads to good marks. The pass percentage is almost 90–95 percent.

Other: I chose this college because it is nearby and one of the best colleges in my locality. More hands-on experience can be added to improve this course. Events and fests are organized regularly in the college for enjoyment. The campus is green and lush, with a clean and healthy environment.

It has a lush green campus with good placements.

Placements: I am in my second year of college, so I am not eligible for placements. I don't know which companies visit the campus, but I know that a lot of companies visit the campus. The highest package offered in the 2024-25 batch in Electrical Engineering is 29.64 LPA. 79.09 percent of students are placed out of the eligible students. The lowest package offered is 5 LPA. I don't know about the internship offered in my course.

Infrastructure: Classrooms are well-facilitated with a smart board for better learning and visualization. The library is very nice, with a lot of books. It is 24x7 open with a good environment. Labs are also nice with the latest technology instruments for practicals. In hostels, we have table tennis, badminton, volleyball, open gym, etc. We get facilities and newspapers in Hindi as well as in English for better knowledge. Food is very good, but a little bit oily. Students are very interested in playing sports as grounds are full of students in the evening.

Faculty: Teachers are well-qualified and very helpful in teaching concepts to students in the easiest way possible. The course curriculum is relevant to help students understand the upcoming AI technology and introduce it in electrical engineering, which is an efficient effort by the management. Semester exams are much easier if we have proper knowledge about the subjects. 40 percent is the pass percentage for each subject, 20 percent of internal and 20 percent of externals.

NIT Kurukshetra College Review.

Placements: Mechanical engineering at NIT Kurukshetra has good placements as well. Around 86% of students get placed. The average package is 9 LPA, the lowest is 4 LPA, and the highest reaches 18 LPA. Top companies like Tata, Hero Motors, and Mahindra visit the campus. Around 80% of students also get internships in core companies.

Infrastructure: The department provides Wi-Fi, and the labs are well-maintained. The classrooms are spacious, and the library has an excellent collection. The hostels are generally good and kept clean, but the food in the mess and food street is just average. There are basic medical facilities and plenty of sports and recreation options too, so you won't really feel bored.

Faculty: The faculty, staff, and teachers play a very important role in helping students learn. They are not just helpful but very supportive, and they try their best to provide a good education. Their teaching style prepares students well for industry needs. Overall, the faculty members are good and approachable.

NIT KURUKSHETRA - My 4 years of journey.

Placements: There is a strength of 120 students in CSE in B.Teach. Currently, the median package is going on 21-22 LPA. Placement of CSE is at the top level as compared to all other branches. An internship is also good. You can crack placement/ internship off-campus ( I mean, there is a huge scope. Many students crack Google, Microsoft off-campus). Placement as an NIT is good.

Infrastructure: Hostel rooms are good if you are adjustable until you are living in the H6 hostel. Washing Machines are available. Laundry man is available, but he is costly. Bring your iron also. Table tennis, chess, volleyball, badminton, cricket. TV screens are available in each hostel. In the seniors' hostel, a gym is also available. Talking about messy food, it is like okay. H3 mess food is good (best). The rest of us have to survive like you. No Wi-Fi only Lawns connection.

Faculty: Faculty members are good and friendly. Examination criteria are a little bit too strict, like two mid seem serious? The rest of the curriculum is excellent. All teachers will clear your doubts. You can take extra classes from them. Your solo time. Is cheating possible in exams?

Other: I had chosen this from all my available options because of the internship opportunities. We can do an internship from here from the 2nd year onwards. I want campus life to be better. More fests and more famous personalities come to campus, and take 1 mid seems not 2. Connectivity with other College students is good. Everyone respects you when you are in NIT KKT. Scholarship scheme, you can check that on the NIT KKR official website.

It's a good college. It has all the facilities, but weather makes it difficult, though manageable.

Placements: Placements have been quite sound this year with companies like Uber, Meesho, and Make My Trip already picking up students and giving around 15 LPA for students of major branches like computer science, electronics and communication engineering as well.

Infrastructure: The availability of network services is not fulfilling even mobile network of some SIMs do not work. The hostels do not have Wi-Fi. They have LAN service which does not allow WhatsApp to run as well. The quality of food is not that great. The rotis are made from machines and are mostly raw and incredible though. The medical facilities are top-notch. Sports facilities are also maintained well. Due to the extreme heat, sometimes the ACs feel worthless.

Faculty: Most of the professors are very helpful, and they encourage students to solve doubts as well, though some faculty members face some language barriers that do not hamper their quality of teaching and providing education. The course is relevant and helpful, and contains a considerable amount of everything which also helps for placement.
