Great infrastructure and good college environment.

Placements: 80% of students were placed in my course last year. The highest package in my course is 18 LPA, the lowest package is 6.5 LPA, and the average package is unknown to me. Top recruiting companies in my course are TCS, Mahindra, Wipro, Infosys, HSBC, NTPC, and BHEL, but this will improve day by day. At present, students are less interested in placement, and companies come more for the mechanical department. Placement was good.

Infrastructure: I live in the hostel named Ganga Hostel of the NIT, Patna. The mess structure of NIT Patna is delicious, and yesterday it was a special dinner. There are three boys' hostels and one girls' hostel. The net capacity is around 600 students. Some hostels have poor basic facilities, and the Wi-Fi is very slow due to the large number of users. The library is well-equipped, but the classrooms are a bit old. The medical facilities of NIT Patna are well organised and good. Doctors are available at any time. Also, take care of students' health.

Faculty: Faculty members are good and well-qualified. You will find all types of professors, including supportive, kind, and funny ones, as well as bad ones. The curriculum set is quite good. It includes electrical engineering subjects and core energy courses. Semester exams are of a moderate level, not too easy and not too difficult, unless you do not study.

Other: I think in terms of value for money, as we know that NIIT Patna's new campus is already formed. When I joined the college, it was still in progress. In the first semester upon joining this college, the college charges 54,000, while in the previous year, they charged only 36,000 from our seniors who joined in their first year at NIT Patna. But yes, we're happy our new campus is ready. The crowd and campus life of NIT Patna are quite good. There are festivals at NIT Patna, including Parakram, Corona, and Milanje, eccentrica.

Review of National Institute of Technology Patna.

Placements: After the 6th semester, students become eligible for campus placement. Companies like Texas Instruments, Samsung, Accenture, Amazon, Keysight Technologies, Deloitte, L&T Bosch, Teach Mahindra and many more. The highest package for batch 2024 to 25 is 41 LPA offered to a CSE student. The average package offered is 10 LPA. The percentage of students placed here is almost 85 percent. Look for a job after getting the degree. Companies like Google, Amazon and many more come here for internship opportunities for a 2-month or 6-month duration. Offering roles for Software Development.

Infrastructure: Very good infrastructure and hostel. Mess food is decent. The course is taught by an experienced faculty member with vast experience and knowledge. The library is filled with all kinds of books you want to look at. The classroom is well structured, air-conditioned, and a projector is available. Sports and extracurricular activities are well distributed. There are many interesting social clubs here. It helps students to develop their whole personality. Hostel rooms are provided with fans, free Wi-Fi, and a water cooler. Meal quality is good. We get both veg and non-veg items.

Faculty: The faculty-to-student ratio is okay in my opinion. In our ECE batch, there are 90 students in a single section. There are no such faculty members whom I don't like. Each semester, there will be 2 exams. One is a mid-semester examination, and the other is an end-of-semester examination. Mid sem is an easy one as compared to the end of the semester. There are very few students who fail these exams. The course curriculum is relevant as it covers all the aspects of that particular branch.

Other: This is the best college I have ever seen. I suggest that every student take admission in NIT Patna.

This is the best college.

Placements: This year, only about 40% of students are placed in our branch. The highest package is around 18 LPA, the lowest is 3.6 LPA, and the average is 7 LPA. Top recruiting companies are L&T, Infosys, TCS, and other software companies, as there are no jobs in the core field. Almost only 20% of students get internships. The top roles offered are Software Engineer, Structural Engineer, Site Engineer, and Environmental Engineer.

Infrastructure: I live in the hostel named Brahmapur hostel of the National Institute of Technology, Patna. This is one of the largest hostels for boys in NIT Patna. The mess structure of NIT Patna is delicious, and yesterday it was a special dinner. There are three boys' hostels and one girls' hostel. The net capacity is around 1,400 students. Some hostels have poor basic facilities, and the Wi-Fi is very slow due to the large number of users. The library is well-equipped, but the classrooms are a bit old. Mess's food is unacceptable.

There are two midterms and one end-of-semester exam each semester.

Other: Here, professors are highly qualified and knowledgeable.

How much JEE Mains percentile is needed for admission?

Answered 6 years ago

this year as the procedure of declaring result has been changed which is now based on percentile so you have to wait till the final result gets declare because final result will only tell in which college you can get admission. The final result will be declared after JEE Mains April exam. Good luck
