Hi,
It is a new branch at NIT Rourkela, as it has a deep scope for development and research, so it would grow more and more in the mean time. Moreover, it is something that you would enjoy studying, if you really have any interest in production and processing of Food and maintaining its quality.
More likely, this branch is all about food making, no it is way broader. We develop food, we develop machines to develop food, we develop machines to keep the food safe. So it has certain degree of mechanical engineering, certain degree of chemical engineering and a major part of Food Science and Engineering.
As there is growth and development in India with respect to Food and Beverage Processing, there has open up a gate for great research and job opportunities, as well, in the near future or I would say it has already started.
Looking at some stats about the placement records for the academic year '17-'18,it is doing well. some companies like Milk Mantra, IDMC, Tetra Pak, etc. Some of the non-core companies visiting the campus for placement are ZS Associates, TCS, EXL Services, Tredence, Affine Analytics, etc.
