Review of NITK Surathkal - National Institute of Technology.
Placements: Top recruiting companies visited our campus. Biotechnology did not get many job offers, but other departments had opportunities to apply for placements. Most students could apply for jobs in the seventh semester. Students who knew the company they were interested in could get placed.
Infrastructure: There were six boys' hostels and four girls' hostels. Wi-Fi was available 24X7. The quality of food in the hostel was excellent. Single and double occupancy rooms were available. The hostel followed discipline excellently. No one was allowed to get outside the campus without permission.
Faculty: Our faculty members were very experienced. The faculty-to-student ratio was 1:60 for theory classes and 1:10 for practical sessions. Three internal exams were conducted. After five weeks of regular classes, it was repeated after five weeks. The college fee was Rs.104560 per year.

I collect best experience from this college.
Placements: Our institute receives high value salaries every year and among them the M.Tech programme plays an important part. For my batch the highest offered package was INR 40LPA with companies like Wipro, IBM, Tata Group, Axis Bank and Federal bank being highly famous recurters of the placements drive. I was fortunate enough to get a highly productive job package from NIT which I am really enjoying being a part of.
Infrastructure: The hostels of NIT are quite good. In the first year, each room is given in a twin sharing basis, I. e, two students in each room. In the second year, every student has his/her individual room. The room facilities are quite good. There is a provision of a proper cupboard for storing your clothes and other items that you would be bringing. Everyone has a study table beside the B.Ed. Which also has a connection to LAN.
Faculty: M.Tech industrial engineering & management is a 2 year programme which is a great combination to learn more efficient about industrial management. Being associated with an IIT & having recognition from AIMA business. Standard also it gets totally clear what kind of education one can get here. The faculty team here had really high quality teachers and they made sure we had the best experience.
