The infrastructure of the college is also good.

Faculty: The faculty members are good here, but some departments lack good teachers. The teaching quality is good, but mostly all depends on the teachers. The judging parameters get changed from teacher to teacher. On average, it has faculty members far better than average. The student to faculty ratio also depends on the branch and subject. Usually, there are 80 students per faculty. There is very good industry expose in NITK as often you get to visit companies, mines, workshops, and seminars. The course curriculum is also good. Its one of the top 10 colleges of engineering, I don't need to write more about it.
