B.Tech. in Mechanical Engineering - Batch of 2028

4Placements4Infrastructure4Faculty4Crowd & Campus Life4Value for Money

This is my honest review.

Placements: The placement opportunities at my college are pretty good if we are skilled enough. This year, 80 to 85% of our seniors got placed in companies like ICICI, HPCL, Amazon, and Hitachi. The average package is around 9 to 10LPA, which is quite competitive.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure for the department is decent enough for classes, and the labs are kind of average. Hostel facilities are average, similar to those provided in any government institute, and you wont get any AC facilities in hostel rooms except for the common room. The food facility is average, like every other hostel in government colleges.

Faculty: Faculty members at my college are very knowledgeable and qualified. The exams are not too difficult, and 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.

Other: Here, professors are highly qualified and knowledgeable.

Integrated M.Tech. in Electronics and Communication Engineering (Microelectronics and VLSI System Design) - Batch of 2029

5Placements5Infrastructure5Faculty5Crowd & Campus Life5Value for Money

My best college review of NIT Patna.

Placements: Around 80-85% of students got placed in our course. The highest salary package in our college is 45 LPA, the average salary package is 14 LPA, and the lowest salary package is 6 LPA. Aditya Birla, Tata, PhonePe, and more companies are recruiting for our course. Every student gets an internship in the 2nd or 3rd year after hard work. There is a placement coordinator.

Infrastructure: 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 food is unacceptable, and there is a single big ground for sports like football and cricket.

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 another platform. 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.

B.Tech. in Computer Science and Engineering - Batch of 2028

5Placements5Infrastructure5Faculty5Crowd & Campus Life5Value for Money

My honest college reviews.

Placements: When it comes to the CSE branch, nearly 75%-80% of students land jobs each year, but I've noticed that number is gradually dropping. The average package for Computer Science and Engineering students is about 15-18 LPA, with the highest reaching around 54 LPA, though the lowest can vary quite a bit.

Infrastructure: The college offers solid infrastructure with helpful amenities, especially for Science students. This includes well-equipped labs and a good library. For those coming from out of town, the hostel offers enough accommodation. The mess is clean, and the food menu is fine.

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.

Amazing placement and gorgeous institute.

Placements: 88% of students got placed last year. My branch has been the highest placement in any branch after mechanical. The highest placement in electrical is 20 LPA, and the lowest is 3.6 LPA. Top recruiting companies in electrical are TCS, Infosys, HAL, BHEL, L&T, etc. Some tech companies like Google and Microsoft also recruit from the electrical branch. Internship in our college is quite low compared to placement.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure for the department is decent enough for classes, and the labs are kind of average. Hostel facilities are average, similar to those provided in any government institute, and you won't get any AC facilities in hostel rooms except for the common room. The food facility is average, like every other hostel in government colleges.

A very reputed institute of Bihar.

Infrastructure: Labs are also good as they have all the equipment required. The library is installed in three tiers and has a seating capacity of almost 300 students at a time, and books are also available. Facilities of medical sports and games in our hostel are now good as compared to the first year, which had very bad hostels.

Faculty: Teachers are helpful and knowledgeable as they are highly qualified, mostly with a B.Tech, M.Tech, 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.

Absolutely satisfied with NIT Patna.

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.

Infrastructure: I live in the hostel named Brahmapur hostel of the college 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.

Faculty: Professors of NIT Patna are so helpful and understanding. They always cooperate with the students of NIT Patna like their own sons. If there is an attendance issue or anything, or in exams, they cooperate so much. They are the best professors.

Other: I chose this course because of my interest in technical domain, and I wanted to do it from NIT Patna itself.
