Review of Electrical Engineering at NIT Rourkela.
Placements: About 80% students got placed. The highest package was 62.44 Lacs per annum, the lowest package was not available, while the average package was 14.10 Lacs per annum. Top recruiting companies are. Texas Instruments, Bharat Petroleum, JSW, ExxonMobil. Amazon, etc. Almost every eligible student received internship opportunities. Top roles offered are hardware engineers, analogue and digital design engineers and power system engineers.
Infrastructure: There is no Wi-Fi available in the classroom, but we can access the internet using the LAN cable provided to us in our rooms. There are air-conditioned classrooms with smart boards, and the labs are equipped with decent equipment. There is a central library with over 60,000 books and access to digital resources. Hostels are safe and offer accommodation with amenities like a common room. The quality of food is decent. There are options for vegetarian and non-vegetarian people. They serve four times a day. There is a health centre on the campus.
Faculty: The teachers are highly qualified. Some of them are from top institutions like IITs. The teaching quality is good, and the teachers are quite knowledgeable and generally helpful. The curriculum is relevant, and it makes a student industry-ready. Thus, the mature exams are moderately difficult, with about 80 to 90% students passing each semester.

Great Infrastructure, Strong Coding Culture ~ NITR .
Placements: NIT Rourkela (2024) 85% placed. 120 LPA is highest salary package. Average package is 14.6 LPA, lowest package is 3.3 LPA. Top recruiters are Google, Microsoft, Amazon, Oracle, TI, Intel, Qualcomm. Internships are common with PPOs. Roles are SDE, Data Analyst, embedded/core engineering, finance/consulting.
Infrastructure: NIT Rourkela offers top-tier infrastructure solutions for students. CSE & core branches have smart classrooms, 24/7 Wi-Fi, advanced labs, and a huge digital central library. Hostel life, clean rooms, fast Wi-Fi / LAN, decent mess food, and 24/7 medical facilities are available. Overall, very good.
Faculty: Faculty are PHDs and helpful ; teaching is practical with strong labs. CBCS + electives (AI/ML ) makes it industry ready. Exams are moderate tough with relatively grading ; pass rate is generally high for regular students. I will say the curriculum is also very good as the " INDIAN EDUCATION SYSTEM.
Other: I chose EE at NITR because it has strong core study + project based learning and best coding culture as well as the placements are very good enough.

Best you will get here. Best college life and amazing placements.
Placements: All students are placed in my branch. Last year, the highest package offered in my branch was 51 LPA, and the lowest salary was 3.3 LPA. The median salary is 10.5 LPA. The average salary is 13.62 LPA. Total job offers are 101. This is all about the electrical branch. Top recruiters are Amazon, Google, Microsoft, Analog Devices, Qualcomm, TCS, Wipro, PhonePe, etc.
Infrastructure: Infrastructure of NIT Rourkela is amazing. We have two lecture halls and all classrooms have AC facility. We have a central library where Wi-Fi is available 24X7. We have well-maintained labs. Hostel facilities are really amazing. We have separate hostels for 1st year students. There are 2 students in one room. We have gym, study room, tv room, music room, night canteen, day canteen, and stationery available inside the hostel. Mess food is not that much good but okay. We have 3 badminton courts, 2 volleyball courts, 3 table tennis courts, etc. We have a dispensary on the campus for medical facilities.
Faculty: Teachers are good. They are interactive and helpful. All are well qualified and they have good knowledge about their subject. Definitely, this course is much relevant. Semester exams are not that much difficult, students can pass easily. But they have to study because the chance of cheating is 0%.
Other: Everything is good. We have a very green and large campus which is second-largest engineering college in India after IIT KPG in terms of area but one thing that I don't like is the attendance policy. We have to manage 85% attendance which is high.

Good social exposure, but dissatisfied location, great faculty, and people.
Placements: Placements are good. The batch size is roughly 114, but yes, all students have different fields of focus. Some pursue higher studies, etc., with guidance from the placement committee. Offers are available both on-campus and off-campus, and the alumni network is also strong. In the first year, it’s not allowed to contact seniors, but afterward, you have great exposure to them through meetings and clubs.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure of some hostels is good, while that of others is not. The LAN connection is great, but the food quality is poor and not very helpful; however, the day and night canteens are lifesavers. There are excellent facilities such as a central swimming pool and a central gym, and each hostel also has its gym, with maintenance occurring every week.
Faculty: Adopting the new education policy highly emphasizes skills and development rather than just memorization. However, the tests are tough with a 0% chance of cheating due to the recently installed CCTV and the supportive environment for studying. The central library provides almost every book, most of which are old but still sufficient.
Other: With 1,200 acres of campus and multiple branches, such as EC, EI, and AI, which have recently been added, there is a huge student population. Events are frequently hosted, including cultural events and hackathons. The campus is surrounded by mountains, allowing for exploration. All the more often, the campus consists of mountains in it, so you can travel it without going out.

Review of NIT Rourkela - National Institute of Technology.
Placements: The placements in the college are good. Many big companies come here for recruitment. The average package is around 20 LPA. Almost every student in my branch gets a placement. Not unnecessarily in the core. But in various fields. The highest package even went for around 1.25 crore rupees that too a domestic one.
Infrastructure: There are two lecture complexes having classrooms and all department buildings have separate classrooms as well, the Wi-Fi speed is okay but many things are blocked on Wi-Fi. The library is huge with three floors and a lift, with an AC and all classrooms have centralized AC. The hostel rooms are very small and a double sharing room. In the room, you get a fan, tube light, a bedtable, and a chair. The mess food is not so good but eatable. The hostel has its own gym, music room, reading room, canteens, etc.
Faculty: Some teachers are good while some are okay. The curriculum is good and has almost same syllabus like any other government engineering college. The exams are a bit easy, a few might be tough which a certain percentage of students fails to pass. Yes the teachers are knowledgeable.
Other: I chose this course because this was the best course I was getting according to my JEE Main rank. The schedule here is kind of hectic and rules and regulations are strict here. Management could work on this. There are several fests like cosmopolitan the cultural fest, the teach fest, nitrutsav the multi-ethnic fest, etc. Many big personalities come to campus during the fests.
