Review of NIT Patna - National Institute of Technology.

Faculty: Faculty members are just average. Despite being highly educated and well-qualified, they lack teaching skills. They are very rude and cruel. Not supportive at all. They hold grudges against students and always shoot at them. Although what they teach only comes in semester exams, semester exams are not that tough.

College is good, but it lacks some basic facilities, and has good placement.

Faculty: Teacher are helpful and knowledgeable as they are highly qualified, mostly with a B.Tech, M.Teach, and PhDs from highly prestigious institutions like IIT. Obviously, electrical has always been highly relevant in the Industry and mostly requires ground work, but it did not actually have a high paying starting salary, but increases as time passes. Now that the difficult one can easily pass if he focuses on class and study consistently daily. The pass percentage depends on other students, as colle...

Best college of engineering in electrical engineering in India.

Faculty: Faculty members at my college are very knowledgeable and qualified. The exams are not too difficult. The pass percentage is good, even for the toughest branch, which is EE. If we leave some of the faculty members out, I think the others are good. Semester exams are of a moderate level, not too easy and not too difficult, unless you do not study. Some exams are difficult, depending on the course and faculty members.

National Institute of Technology (NIT) Patna is a very good college in India.

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 of 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. Some exams are difficult, depending on the course and faculty members.

An absolutely gorgeous institute.

Faculty: NIT-Patna faculty members are obviously great scholars. Some are friendly while some are rude, but that's the story of every college. The faculty-to-student ratio is approximately 1:70. The main exams for the academic year are the mid-semester, viva voce, and the end-semester. There are also class tests, but their frequency is not fixed.

NIT Patna is a good college in india and this college have a good placement percentage .

Faculty: While the faculty doesn't always teach genuinely, they are often approachable, as far as I can say for my department. Students are required to approach them for various reasons, such as extra credit, minor projects, etc. To add on to this, professors are very approachable for projects. There have not been any faculty members that I have had a dislike towards for any reason other than strict correction, and I don't consider that a valid reason for a dislike.

My review of the National Institute of Technology Patna.

Faculty: Teachers are good, but not very supportive. The teaching quality is good, and teachers are highly professional. However, they are not very supportive. They mainly focus on attendance. If you approach them, they are willing to help and want you to be careful with your studies.

Good campus infrastructure and placement.

Faculty: Teachers in the department are invaluable to students, but others, like the Physics department, do not seem well-qualified. Students have to prepare on their own using YouTube or other platforms. The course curriculum is very relevant, focusing only on courses that help with placements. There are two midterms and one end-of-semester exam each semester. Midterms are quite tough, but end-of-semester exams seem easier to students. Students can easily achieve an 8+ CGPA.
