Best college with world-class facilities.

Placements: The overall placement percentage of students is 86%. It is important to maintain a CGPA above 8.1. People here get packages of around 32 LPA with good effort, and one of my seniors got a placement of 65 LPA. Internship offers start from the 2nd year, and many people get pre-placement offers. The average package is around 22 LPA. During the internship period, companies like Microsoft, Oracle, Texas, and Uber come to NITK, and 78% of the interns get placed based on their performance in the companies.

Infrastructure: The facilities provided to us are very good. Wi-Fi facility quality is also excellent. Classrooms are well-maintained and have Wi-Fi access. Regarding hostels, the food which is available is average. Medical facilities, sports, and games are also well-maintained. Also, there are football, cricket, basketball, and many other game grounds.

Faculty: Our faculty members are well-educated and highly knowledgeable. They have a lot of knowledge, but they lack in teaching sometimes. 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 96%.

Dream of every serious aspirants.

Placements: 90% of students get placed every year. Top recruiting companies are Reliance, UTS, Birla, and many more, as per my knowledge. The highest package is 19 LPA. The average package is 9.5 LPA, and the lowest salary is 7 LPA. This data is from last year. All students get internships at least.

Infrastructure: Infrastructure of the hostel is good. Facilities are provided such as Wi-Fi, LAN, a study room, a laundry facility, and a night canteen in every hostel. The facility of the night canteen is from 6:00 PM to 2:00 AM. Medical facilities are also available in the hostel. There is also a TV room in which you can watch movies, cricket matches, etc. Sports facility is also available.

Faculty: Professors are well-qualified but strict in college. The teaching quality varies for each faculty member. The course curriculum is good, ensuring that students gain basic knowledge from each branch in the first year and transition to core subjects in the second year. There are mid-semester exams (30 marks) and end-semester exams (100 marks, later converted to 50) for each semester. There are about two to three class tests for each subject. It is rare for students to fail.

Infrastructure: Facilities available in our hostel include Wi-Fi, drinking water, lights, fans, and beds. Our college has fully air-conditioned classrooms. A central library is available on campus, and students can issue books. The quality of food in the mess is average. There are three canteens on campus, and the fast food is good. We have a small ground for playing different sports like volleyball, football, and cricket. However, only one sport, either cricket or football, can be played at a time.

Faculty: Teachers are helpful with studies and projects. They are qualified and very knowledgeable. We feel comfortable studying with them. In my opinion, the course curriculum is relevant and prepares us to manage future tasks. The mid-semester exams are good because teachers ask questions based on what they teach in class.

Good college for Architecture.

Placements: Placements are just pathetic for B.Arch courses at NIT Patna. There are a handful of companies that allow B.Arch students to sit for their placement that too for computer science and analyst roles. Average Salary is INR 8.80 lakh. Highest Salary is INR 43.17 lakh. Median Salary is INR 6.50 lakh. Major recruiting companies are ABB, Accenture, Aditya Birla Group, AFCONS Infrastructure, AMW Automobiles, and Godrej, etc.

Infrastructure: Facilities are quite good and labs are also good . WiFi is very slow and the library is well equipped. The hostel accommodates three people in a small room. It is heavily crowded and living there is like hell. Mess food is pathetic and very boring but it is acceptable.

Faculty: Faculty is worst, as you won't understand anything in class. You will have to rely on YouTube for each and every topic. Exams are extremely easy and you can pass it even without studying. Curriculum is quite relevant and it is of great use for a successful career in architecture.
