Great infrastructure and good college environment.
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, but this will improve day by day. At present, students are less interested in placement, and companies come more for the mechanical department. Placement was good.
Infrastructure: I live in the hostel named Ganga Hostel of the NIT, Patna. The mess structure of NIT Patna is delicious, and yesterday it was a special dinner. There are three boys' hostels and one girls' hostel. The net capacity is around 600 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. The medical facilities of NIT Patna are well organised and good. Doctors are available at any time. Also, take care of students' health.
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 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.
Other: I think in terms of value for money, as we know that NIIT Patna's new campus is already formed. When I joined the college, it was still in progress. In the first semester upon joining this college, the college charges 54,000, while in the previous year, they charged only 36,000 from our seniors who joined in their first year at NIT Patna. But yes, we're happy our new campus is ready. The crowd and campus life of NIT Patna are quite good. There are festivals at NIT Patna, including Parakram, Corona, and Milanje, eccentrica.

Review of National Institute of Technology Patna.
Placements: After the 6th semester, students become eligible for campus placement. Companies like Texas Instruments, Samsung, Accenture, Amazon, Keysight Technologies, Deloitte, L&T Bosch, Teach Mahindra and many more. The highest package for batch 2024 to 25 is 41 LPA offered to a CSE student. The average package offered is 10 LPA. The percentage of students placed here is almost 85 percent. Look for a job after getting the degree. Companies like Google, Amazon and many more come here for internship opportunities for a 2-month or 6-month duration. Offering roles for Software Development.
Infrastructure: Very good infrastructure and hostel. Mess food is decent. The course is taught by an experienced faculty member with vast experience and knowledge. The library is filled with all kinds of books you want to look at. The classroom is well structured, air-conditioned, and a projector is available. Sports and extracurricular activities are well distributed. There are many interesting social clubs here. It helps students to develop their whole personality. Hostel rooms are provided with fans, free Wi-Fi, and a water cooler. Meal quality is good. We get both veg and non-veg items.
Faculty: The faculty-to-student ratio is okay in my opinion. In our ECE batch, there are 90 students in a single section. There are no such faculty members whom I don't like. Each semester, there will be 2 exams. One is a mid-semester examination, and the other is an end-of-semester examination. Mid sem is an easy one as compared to the end of the semester. There are very few students who fail these exams. The course curriculum is relevant as it covers all the aspects of that particular branch.
Other: This is the best college I have ever seen. I suggest that other students take admission in NIT Patna.

This is the best college.
Placements: This year, only about 40% of students are placed in our branch. The highest package is around 18 LPA, the lowest is 3.6 LPA, and the average is 7 LPA. Top recruiting companies are L&T, Infosys, TCS, and other software companies, as there are no jobs in the core field. Almost only 20% of students get internships. The top roles offered are Software Engineer, Structural Engineer, Site Engineer, and Environmental Engineer.
Infrastructure: I live in the hostel named Brahmapur hostel of the 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. 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's food is unacceptable.

Best MCA college according to me.
Placements: In 2023, MCA is discontinued, but it started again in 2024. In MCA '23, there is 100 percent placement. The highest package is 23 LPA at Amdocs, the median package is 6.2 LPA, and the lowest package is 4 LPA (this information I got from my seniors and faculty). Amdocs, SAP, Microsoft, Cisco, Deloitte, and many more companies are involved. Internships on campus are offered to 20–25 students out of 133 students. The top roles provided by recruiters are SDE and SWE.
Infrastructure: Wi-Fi connection is fully provided within the campus and hostel. For electricity, there is 24/7 service. The library is old, and the seating area is limited. The canteen and mess are in average condition. Medical facilities are provided, but most of the time, the dispensary doctor is on leave. Sports activities are good according to others, and for different sports, there are separate courts. Our college area is small, but the availability of facilities for sports is adequate. The quality of food in the hostel is not very good; according to me, it is average.
Faculty: The faculty is among the best. NIT Patna is always known for its experienced and renowned faculty, especially in the CSE department, where the top 2 percent of scientists taught us. The best part of our college is that they provide us with practical classes more than theory classes, which makes us more practically engaged. Semester exams are conducted at a slightly tough level, but we pass by studying two hours daily.

Best placements and faculty.
Placements: The placements this year are going well. If we consider the placement season of last year, 2023–24, the highest package offered is 64 LPA, similar to the season of 2022–23, meaning there is no decrement in the highest CTC. Top recruiters are Google, Amazon, Atlassian, Oracle, Adobe, Samsung, and Goldman Sachs, followed by JPMC. The placement rate for the CSE branch is above 90 percent, with the overall rate being 78–83 percent.
Infrastructure: In terms of the mess, I got H-7, whose mess is the best among the boys’ hostel messes. The quality of food is good except on some days. The dispensary is good for first aid, but for further treatment, I would suggest an outside hospital. Sports facilities are available on a good scale, including badminton, table tennis, gym, volleyball, cricket, and football. The infrastructure is fine, but the labs have excellent working PCs.
Faculty: The faculty members at NIT Patna are not good. Professors do not have teaching skills and do not understand the students’ situation. The exam course is good, but the faculty always wants. I think they always search for a path to fail the students in the examination, but not all.

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.
Other: Here, professors are highly qualified and knowledgeable.
