Real review from NITian.
Placements: Almost 95% above are placed in the PIE branch. Overall, there is 92% placement percentage at NIT Jamshedpur. In this course, the highest would be around 18-20 LPA and above, the average would be around 10 LPA, and the lowest would be around 5 LPA. Eaton, JSW Steel, Flipkart (supply management roles), etc. Top roles include Data Analyst, supply chain roles, etc.
Infrastructure: Hostel, I would rate 5 above and more especially, the hostel is at the level of IITs and above any NITs hostel. Cleanliness in the hostel is also top-level, sweeping machines are used. Mess food, I would rate 4.5. Non-Veg is very good. Veg students have to suffer a little bit. Medical, I would rate 5. There is always an ambulance available 24/7, and there are doctors for stress and anxiety. Also, one of my classmates has anxiety problems, so the college authority takes it seriously. Sports, Iwould rate 4. Mostly, all sports are available, so overall 4. You can check out my Instagram profile (raja_kumar.018), don't forget to follow me.
Faculty: Professors are helpful. All course curricula are relevant as they have recently been renewed. Here, branch-specific subjects are being taught by professors who are important for the future, such as C++, Java, CSS, and DSA, which are included in the CSE branch. PIE branch includes Supply management subjects, and Data Analysis subjects are market-ready subjects. Semester exams are of a moderate level, except for 1-2 subjects, depending on proof.

Reasons why not to leave the admission here, NIT Jamshedpur.
Placements: Talking of students placed in 2024, the number of offers represented was 725 plus. Companies visited were more than 260. The highest package was 82 LPA, and the average was 12.63 LPA. Overall, 93.76 percent of students were placed. Prominent recruiters were Atlassian, Flipkart, and Accenture. In the Mechanical department, the placement percentage was 91.5 percent. The batch size of the 2024 passout was 673.
Infrastructure: Speaking of academic facilities and infrastructure, lectures are taken in a new lecture hall, which has all facilities, Wi-Fi, LAN, a projector, and a library is near the lecture hall, so you can study after attending lectures. Labs of all subjects are in the old academic building, the labs' infrastructure is a bit old, fans are there, but in peak summers, they're of no use. The equipment and machinery of some labs are new, but some are of the old kind, but good if you're in robotics, electronics, and computer labs. Wi-Fi is present on the entire campus, and LAN is also in every hostel room.
Faculty: Professor and PhD scholars are very helpful, though a couple of them might be tough or strict, but still, they understand their students and are always available. The course is very good and bifurcation in every semester is done in a good way, students also get practical knowledge through labs, making students ready for the real world. Semester exam toughness varies with the professor. But with relatively grading it doesn't matter a lot now. To pass, a student must get marks higher than 35 in theory and 40 in labs.
Other: This college is the best option for college life and placement offers. With many cultural teams and technical teams, fests and events, you will never feel left out and will always learn.

Good placements, strong academics, and a vibrant campus life.
Placements: So, the placement of the Mechanical Engineering department is 97-99%. The highest package was around 20.5 LPA, the lowest was 5.5 LPA, and the average package is 7-8.5 LPA. Top companies like Tata Steel, JSW, JSL, JSPL, L&T, Vedanta, RIL, ABG, etc., visit our college. They provide various roles such as GET, Management Role, Design Role, Sales Role, etc.
Infrastructure: The Mechanical Engineering department has good infrastructure, including well-equipped labs and smart classrooms with projectors. The high-speed Wi-Fi is available across the campus. The central library is large, air-conditioned, and has enough books and journals. Hostels are very good but less maintained, with issues like water problems and Wi-Fi issues. The food quality is average, but you can eat. The grounds for sports are very good, and the sports infrastructure is good.
Faculty: Faculty members are experienced, supportive, and knowledgeable, especially in core subjects; however, some professors are less experienced and knowledgeable. Exams are moderately difficult, and you can score very well with one week of study before the exam. The passing percentage is 95-97%.
Other: I chose Mechanical at NIT Jamshedpur because the placement is very good, and this is the oldest branch with strong fundamentals and good industry exposure. The campus life is vibrant, with events like OJASS (tech fest) and CulFest (cultural fest).

Placements are great. Infrastructure is decent. Mess food is average. Fests are below average.
Placements: Placements are great on paper, but the records include off-campus placements. As per the 4th-year seniors, the placements are much better than at other NITs. You will get to this rank. So if you are focused on placements, then you can join this college.
Infrastructure: The first-year hostel is great. It is newly built. It is a 2-seater hostel. The hostels for other years might feel old and in poor condition, but they are the same as other hostels in India, and they are single-seater. The lecture hall is great. The mess food is bad. For girls, they have built a new hostel, which we do not know if they will allot to first years or not.
Faculty: Faculty members are qualified, but you will not understand anything in class. The exams are of decent difficulty, but the checking of copies is lenient. The branch is a hill. You will get Alok sir, who does not take more than 5 classes in the entire semester.
Other: Electrical Engineering is the most popular branch in this college. You have to address seniors as Sir and Ma'am. There is no ragging culture here, but they ask you to give your introduction in the correct format. If you are not able to give it in the correct format, they make you repeat your intro. So some people might find this culture toxic. Many fests are organised here, but do not keep your expectations too high, since they are not great. The college lacks a few facilities, such as a good gym, auditorium, hockey ground, etc.

Absolutely good placements.
Placements: Placement of our college is very good, and Jamshedpur is famous for placement. In our branches, the maximum package is 20 LPA, and the average package is approximately 8 LPA. Approximately, the percentage of placement is above 95 percent. Many of the student goes for further studies and government job preparation. Internship opportunities are available to students from their second or third year. Many of the companies provide internships to the students according to their branches. Many students get internships in our colleges, and also many students get internships off campus.
Infrastructure: In our college, there is only one gym, which is very small in size. The gym in our college just opened this year in August. Also, there is one cafeteria in our college, and the price is reasonable for the food. The library in our college is the only one. The library opens at 10:00 AM and closes at 9:00 PM. The hostel timing for boys is approximately 11:00 PM, and for girls is 9:00 PM. Wi-Fi all over the campus with CCTV security. Classrooms are spacious and digitally updated.
Faculty: The faculty-to-student ratio is good, it is nearly up to 8:1. Approaching the faculty members is very easy, as they are supportive. All the faculty members are good, so we cannot take the names. There are two exams, mid-semester and the end-semester. They are a little bit tough, the curriculum is also relevant when it comes to the core branches, and it is somewhat non-relevant for the tech branches.

Very good college, infrastructure, and placements.
Placements: From the 7th semester, only top companies start visiting the campus. All top IT companies visit the college. The CSE branch has an average of 27 LPA with around 95 percent placements. The core branch also has very good placements. The MME branch and the PIE branch have the best placements compared to all NITs. I am preparing for UPSC ESE. On average, around 97 percent of students get placed. The lowest package is 6.5 LPA and the highest is 82.5 LPA, which Atlassian offered to 5 students of CSE, ECE, and EE.
Infrastructure: Hostels are allotted to each student in the college. For the first year, a single room is shared with 2 students, while in the second year onward, a single room is allotted to single students. The mess food quality is not so good. The library is full of books and books. You'll get newspapers and magazines too, and there is a Hindi sahitya section in the library which is full of golden Hindi literature books. The classroom is very high-tech and air-conditioned. They have whiteboards and a green board, projectors, and a podium equipped with a mic. Many sports events here, like cricket, football, Premier League, badminton, etc., are conducted.
Faculty: There are literally many faculty members. I don't exactly know the faculty-to-student ratio, but I have heard it's around 1:15 or something like that. All faculty members are friendly here and not that strict. Proff. A. K Choudhary sir is a superb faculty member of Geotechnical Engineering. The curriculum and the textbooks are just the same as those followed in all top IITs and NITs. The teaching style is the same, but it's more on the older way of teaching side. Exams happen twice each semester, named mid-semester examination carrying 30 marks, then end-semester exams carrying 50 marks.
