NIT Surathkal College Review.

Placements: Over 95% of our students land jobs after graduation from our college. This year, the highest salary package from my branch hit around 50 LPA, while the average for core electrical engineering was about 15 LPA. The big names doing the recruiting include Google, Microsoft, Oracle, Nvidia, Tata, TCS, Jio, and a whole bunch more. Its worth noting that nearly all students who applied for internships got one, but those who did not throw their hat in the bring brought the overall internship numbers down a bit.

Infrastructure: Wi-Fi was available all across campus, and the hostels have LAN, too. The labs were fully stocked and really good. The library had over 200,000 books on just about every topic you can think of. I would have to say, when it comes to food, I would give it a 2 out of 5. The medical and sports facilities were pretty solid overall. The second year student hostels arena. It was the best, but the others were just fine. The food was decent, too.

Faculty: Teachers had solid qualifications and extensive teaching experience. Our course fits well within our environment. The semester exams were pretty tough, so getting a good grade requires some serious effort. So, overall, the faculty members were good and approachable.

NIT Surathkal College review.

Placements: In the mechanical engineering department, it was impressive. Over half, and sometimes even up to 80% of students, land jobs every year. Some of the big players that came looking for fresh talent include GAIL, HPCL, BPCL, BHEL, and MRPL, just to name a few. We had graduates snagging positions at dream companies like Reliance, Tata, Samsung, and Bajaj, too. Internships, companies like Caterpillar, JSW Steel, and Rather Energy were regulars around here. It was a great time to be part of this field.

Infrastructure: The campus includes all the essential academic and research buildings, a central library, well equipped labs, and classrooms with Wi-Fi. Students could use residential facilities and dining halls. The hostel accommodation was generally seen as satisfactory. The food in the mess was just average. It was a health center with medical professionals available, in case someone got sick.

Faculty: The teaching staff was made up of qualified individuals with a solid grasp of their subjects. They get creative with their methods, which keeps students engaged. They often used storytelling and discussions to explain concepts. The curriculum was spot on, and students who were well versed in the material usually ace their exams.

Absolutely a good college in order to learn, with better infrastructure and good placements in 2026.

Placements: In civil engineering, we have 70% placed in different companies, and rest are for higher studies like M.Tech, MBA, M.Sc. Our college placement cell, CDC, has been doing great work for past 3-4 years. Highest package is 22 LPA, and the lowest is 4.5 LPA. Top recruiting company is BPCL. 30% of students got internships, and top roles are associate engineering and supply chain.

Infrastructure: Infrastructure in our college has been developing over last 4 years. We got new hostels this year, and last year they inaugurated a new lecture hall. Wi-Fi is pretty good, and labs are maintained and equipped with the latest machines. Classroom has good ventilation and proper spacing, with a smart board also. We also have 2 libraries, one of which is 24hrs open. Food quality in mess is normal, and canteen has good food also. We have a medical centre, also with all types of doctors available. We have many grounds in college for sports, such as indoor and outdoor as well.

Faculty: Teachers are very knowledgeable and qualified. Teaching quality is also modernized, like they teach on a smart board and also on a blackboard. For my branch of civil Engineering, the course curriculum is enough to be qualified as a civil engineer. Semester exams are of a moderate to hard level. Pass percentage is like 90%.

Other: I chose the Civil Engineering course from JoSAA counseling through JEE main exam. Best things in civil engineering course are labs and practical training. Everything is fine with my course. Civil Engineering connection is with many other colleges, and they also conduct many events in college just to discuss and prepare necessary improvements for civil Engineering sector.
