B.Tech. in Computer Science and Engineering - Batch of 2026

Placements peaked in the year 2025-2026.

Placements: In my branch, more than 75% of the students are placed with over 800+ (still accounting) offers with the whole B.Tech batch. Packages usually start from 8 LPA and go as high as 70 LPA if talking about on-campus offers. Microsoft, Google, Deutsche, and UKG recruit. Around 33% people bagged a summer internship in companies such as Google, Microsoft, Wells Fargo, Qualcomm, Texas Instruments, etc. The top roles are of SDE and Data Analyst.

Infrastructure: All hostels have LAN, and all labs have Wi-Fi installed, while classes don't have Wi-Fi. The library is three-floored with Wi-Fi on every floor. The quality of food is debatable as it depends on the caterer, but still, there are high chances that the caterer is good and non-veg food is made very frequently in a week. Medical facilities include free medicine, which is basic, and an ambulance service with in campus apollo.

Faculty: All faculty members have a very excellent career with multiple research papers and accomplishments under their name. The course curriculum is not very relevant in the first year as subjects such as Mechanical, Chemical, Biology, and Physics are taught, but the courses become much more flexible in the final two years. Marking is mostly lineant but the relative grading is not there, and scoring high scores might be painful, but getting average marks is easier.

Other: I chose this course as it was the best offered by this college with the highest average packages. 4 annual fest each year on a very huge scale.

It is a really good college, and academics are improving year by year.

Placements: A maximum of all students get placed at the end of last year in my course, and in other courses, placements are really good. Oracle is the top recruiting company in my course. Upto 90 percent of students get internships. It offers developer jobs in my course through placements.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure in classrooms is very good with full AC, projectors, and speakers. Labs have the latest updated computers and screens. Hostels are 10 years old, but they are good. Wi-Fi available on the campus is good. There are both day and night canteens in every hostel.

Faculty: Teachers here are helpful, qualified, and knowledgeable. They provide very interactive teaching. The course curriculum is relevant to the present industry, and it makes students industry-ready. The pass percentage is also high in all courses with medium-range exam papers.

Other: I chose this course because I am interested in it.

It's a good college as it's one of the top most colleges in India. The college life is good.

Placements: Almost 80 to 90 percent of students got placed. The highest package is around 80 lakh. Last year it was 1.2 crore. The lowest is around 5 lakh, and the average is around 12 to 15 lakhs. Top recruiting companies are Wells Fargo, Visa, JSW, Accenture, and many more. Around 60 to 70 percent of students got internships, and companies include Visa, Accenture, and many more. The role offered is SWE.

Infrastructure: Rooms are not so high-end, but it's okay for our branch. There is Wi-Fi in classrooms, and labs are also good with around 80 computers in each lab. The library is good. It remains open from 9 AM to 9 PM. You will get Wi-Fi, books, e-books, and many more options. In the hostel, rooms are of decent size, and bathrooms are also in nice condition. Daily maintenance happens. Wi-Fi is available in every room. Food quality is also okay not very good, but satisfactory. There is a dispenser inside the campus.

Faculty: Teachers are qualified, but the curriculum is very old and not suited to modern days. It does not make a student industry-ready. Exams are quite difficult, especially the end-of-semester exams, because the syllabus is very wide, and they ask mid-semester portions. The pass percentage is 35 percent.

Other: I got as per my score, which is good according to current days, because the industry is growing. Industry-ready elements should be included in the course, and practical aspects should be increased. Campus life is very good. Many great fests are organised on campus every year, and students enjoy them a lot.

All about NIT Rourkela.

Placements: Almost 90% of students got placed in the institute last year. The highest salary package offered was 80 LPA, and the average salary package offered was 20 LPA. The median salary package offered was 21.6 LPA. Most students secured internships in many companies like Paypal, Razorpay, etc., in their third year. Top roles offered were software roles, BFSI, and management roles.

Infrastructure: Many facilities like music room, gym, reading room, and TV Room are available in hostel along with WI-FI facility. The food facilities are average. Every necessary facility like canteen, medical items, and even sports items are provided which are of good quality.

Faculty: Faculty members are well-qualified and highly knowledgeable. However, their teaching methods are not appropriate for all students. Course curriculum is not industry-relevant and is quite outdated. However, many subjects which are important are introduced in third year. Semester exams are quite difficult.

Other: I chose this course because I got Computer Science branch in the college. Subjects that are present in the curriculum are not fit for the industry. Campus crowd is the best part of the college as every student is quite smart. Fests like Cosmo, Innovision, Vriddhi, and Nitrutsav are conducted throughout the year.
