Best NIT in India. Placement is good.
Placements: 96% of students are placed. The highest package is 17LPA. Top recruiting companies are LNT, Tata Steel, Jusco, etc. They get internship in Jusco about 50% and many more companies like ICICI Bank, all the students did a great job in placement also.
Infrastructure: All the classrooms are neat and clean. The diamond jubilee lecture hall is the best, the hostel is also good, and the mess food is also okay. The gym section is good, football, basketball, volleyball court, lawn tennis court, badminton court, chess area, everything is nice.
Faculty: Teachers are well qualified from good IITs and NITs. They help us in very difficult situations. The semester exam is not so tough, almost all the students pass. All the teachers are well educated, and they are also doing research work and teaching M.Teach and Ph.D. students.
Other: I love civil engineering, thats why I chose civil and wanted to be in the core. In NIT, JSR events are the best, including cultural night, branch fest, tech fest, sports fest, and many more things.

Satisfied with college. Actually, I started preparation for JEE in a drop year.
Placements: In general, our branch almost every student got placed. Generally, civil engineering branch students prefer to go for government jobs rather than any corporate jobs. Besides all that, people got good placements from many companies like L&T.
Infrastructure: Wi-Fi is working regularly, but during exam time, it gets stuck and does not work properly. After paying money, we have to recharge the phones to use data. LAN is working properly. Hostel quality is good, but I got the top floor. We know the college is behind the industrial area, and it gets too hot.
Faculty: It is too difficult to pass the examination. All the teachers present here are almost from the Indian Institutes of Technology. They have too much knowledge, but the knowledge and teaching methods are totally different. Some teachers know everything but are not able to describe it properly.
Other: I love to build new infrastructure.

Placements are decreasing in every successive batch. So, we should work on NIRF and infrastructure.
Placements: More than 90% of students are placed. 1.44 crores is the highest, and average is around 13 LPA CTC. Recruiting companies are Google, Atlasian, PayPal, JP Morgan, Amazon, Optum, Flipkart, HP, Adobe, Salesforce, Tata, Adani, Microsoft, Samsung, Bajaj, ICICI Bank, HP, Aditya Birla Group, etc. Mostly go as a SW engineer.
Infrastructure: Mostly could work on infrastructure a bit, though not 24X7. Reading rooms are available and on time because of the open campus. Mess is okay, non-veg available can improve. Sports are nice. Equipments and space are available. Medical ambulance and dispensary are available. Canteen is also available.
Faculty: They can improve the core placement needed. They can also provide more proper labs and facilities. Professors are okay. Depends on the professor, exams are difficult. Pass percentage is 30%. Semester exam can work through notes and PYQ.
Other: I chose this course because of circuital branch. It is a blooming field and requires more exposure and more core placements. Fests and events are nice.

The infrastructure is okay, but the placements are good.
Placements: The placements are good, and the placement cell is also supportive. It is one of the best colleges for core placements, having much better core placements and percentage than any other NITs in the list. The college is known for this placement more than any other.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure is average, and the labs are old but pretty enough so you don't face any problem with learning. It's also one of the developing NITs, and definitely, it will grow more in research and also in infrastructure. Its NIRF ranking has also increased. It has now moved to the 82nd position from 100-150.
Faculty: The curriculum is very poor. They have to update it to the new curriculum that most of the colleges are following, making students industry-ready from the very start of their course. They also took the initiative this year; they have started core subjects in many branches.
Other: My batch is pretty good, and the batchmates are also good and competitive, getting a good environment here to grow.

Good faculty, good placement, infrastructure and facilities should be improved.
Placements: One of the biggest plus points of our college NIT Jamshedpur is its placement stats. They are just too good and easily comparable to top NITs and even a few IITs. Talking about placement percentage, it's more or less always above 90% if taking major branches into account. In my branch, i.e., ECE, it's almost around 90-95%, the highest being 84 LPA last year, and the average being around 20 LPA, with the lowest being around 8. Top recruiting companies include many IT companies and a few core companies, too. Internship percentage is also pretty good here. Job roles vary from SDE to data analysis and many more.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure is decent, but the campus seems so underutilized. The college doesn't even have an auditorium. But apart from that, the lecture hall and classrooms are pretty impressive and comparable to those of IITs. Labs and libraries are okayish and good. Talking about the hostel, it's just decent enough to live here. Rooms are good, but the main issue is with Wi-Fi. Even though they have provided a working LAN, the Wi-Fi just doesn't work. The food quality of the canteen is just average and sometimes below average. Medical facilities and sports are also quite good.
Faculty: Teachers are qualified and knowledgeable, but only a few are helpful or friendly. While many professors seem they have enough knowledge, they aren't able to explain properly. Overall, the faculty is very good here, except for a few. The quality of teaching is also very nice overall. The course, though, sometimes feels outdated and irrelevant. Moreover, I don't think that the current course structure makes the students industry-ready. Semester exams' difficulty totally depends on the professor, but in general, it's enough to study a week before to get a good grade. The pass percentage is also pretty good here.

If you are just inclined towards decent placement, this would be a good college.
Placements: Only placements are available here. Till the end of the year, it will go around 90% placements in the CSE course. Placements are very good in ECE. Placements in electrical and other courses are decent. Students can expect a salary package of 6 LPA - 7 LPA if they are average among their branchmates, so they have to take care of it.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure is very poor. NIT Jamshedpur has an open campus. There is a busy road surrounded by running vehicles. I hate this thing. They are constructing some hostels and playgrounds. The development process is in progress. The Internet facility is also very poor. In some rooms, the internet is available but many rooms do not have it.
Faculty: Exams are conducted every 2 months which include mid-semester and end-semester. Teachers are helpful, qualified, and knowledgeable, but students didn't study and got poor marks. Questions are asked from the past year only. The difficulty level is easy to moderate.
Other: There is no college life in our college. The campus is small. There is nothing in our college.
