I have great experience, and I am absolutely satisfied. It has good placements.
Placements: Starting with packages in my course in the VLSI industry, there are a few companies that recruit us. But packages are as impressive as our expectations. Companies like Texas Instruments, Qualcomm, John Deere, Intel, and MediaTek are the major recruiters. 20% of students get internship opportunities in those top companies.
Infrastructure: At first, our classrooms have a very good environment with an air-conditioning facility. The library is far better, which has full AC and a high-speed Wi-Fi facility. Hostels have great infrastructure for both studying and playing. There are Wi-Fi and LAN services in each room, which contains two beds. Overall, it is better.
Faculty: Faculty members of our college are generally helpful and well-qualified. Many of them hold advanced degrees and are experienced in industry-related domains. The course curriculum is very relevant to real-world problems, and it prepares us for the industry world. In NIT Rourkela, academic comeback is very difficult because of the semester exams.
Other: I chose this branch because my JEE Main result qualified me for it. But after choosing this course, I feel very lucky because this domain is very interesting and the best.

Satisfied mostly because of placements, the academic curriculum, and a lush green campus.
Placements: 99% of students from the EC + EI got placed. However, there are 100% placements in the EI department (from the last 2 years). The highest package is 1.2 crores per annum (EI 2023-24), and the lowest package is 3.0 LPA(EC). The average package ranges from 13.5-17.5 LPA. Many software companies like Microsoft, Google, etc., and VLSI design companies like Texas Instruments, Intel, Nvidia, etc., hire students. More than half students got internships in the software domain, and the remaining in VLSI and core domains.
Infrastructure: The maximum speed of Wi-Fi is more than 100 Mbps, but the average is 30 Mbps. Labs of my department are well-maintained with all facilities like systems, software licenses, etc. Many classrooms have a centralised AC system. The library is one of the biggest in India. The quality of the hostel and mess food is also very good. Regular checking of the quality of food is done by the warden, who is a professor. We have a dispensary in our college for minor issues, and if major, they refer it outside hospital, which is very near to main gate.
Faculty: Many professors have done their PhD from top IITs, and they are very supportive. The teaching quality depends on one professor to another, but overall, it is good. The course curriculum is relevant. The course is designed by experts in their domain. Exams are a little bit difficult, and strict checking is done. Our curriculum is not very easy. The pass marks are 34 out of 100.
Other: I chose this course because of the good placements. The best thing is that students can go into software, the VLSI domain, and core fields. I wish that relative grading were there. Many fests happen all over year. Our college has a lush green campus. It is really very large and beautiful. Many scholarships are also given by others for B.Tech.

Satisfied because of its infrastructure.
Placements: In National Stock Technology Rourkela, almost 82-90% of the students will be placed. Top recruiting companies are Barclays, Intel, Microsoft, Google, etc. Mostly 32-40% of students got internships in great companies.
Infrastructure: The facilities and infrastructure available for the course and department are really good. Wi-Fi is available. Labs, classrooms, and library are available. The maintenance of the campus is excellent. Infrastructure is really good. There will be the golden jubilee, which attracts the campus more.
Faculty: Teachers are helpful, qualified, and knowledgeable. Teaching quality is really good. The curriculum is relevant and makes students industry-ready. The difficulty of the semester exams will be more. Pass percentage is 32%-35%.
Other: I am a student in electronics and instrumentation engineering. The best thing about our course is that it provides good placement opportunities. Special students will have special companies in electronics and instrumentation engineering. Fests are really good.

Good placement stats, good infrastructure, facilities and one of the best hostel among NITs.
Placements: The college has a very good placement ratio. If I talk about the placement states, then in the 2024 batch, the rate of placement was 87.9%, and the highest package was 1.2 Cr PA. The average CTC is 18.3 LPA for my branch, and being a top NIT, it has one of the best faculty members and placements from top companies around the world.
Infrastructure: There is a totally different hostel for first-year students and for other-year students. The hostel provides you free internet. Also, there are two canteens inside the hostel. The food is also very good compared to other colleges. The hostel itself has its separate playground inside the hostel premises. Also, one can find washing machines on every floor and in every block. Labs has the best facilities, having every piece of equipment in good condition, and the library has every book along with a separate reading room. The college has its own medical room inside the campus. You will find any types of stores inside the campus that you need.
Faculty: The faculty members are the top professors all around India, and they will help you in the best way they can. You will be taught everything relevant to your course deeply, and in every semester you will be taught the practical knowledge along with the theoretical knowledge. There will be two one-end sem exams and one mid-sem exam in every semester.
Other: Talking about the fest, there you will find four fests every year. These will be cosmopolitan (multi-ethnic fest), Innovision (East India's largest tech fest), Vriddhi (sports fest), and NITRutsav (Odisha's largest cultural fest). There is also a student-run body, SAC, inside the campus that looks after all the extracurricular activities. NITR has the best club culture, as you will find at least one club in every field you are interested in.

A college to explore yourself.
Placements: According to my seniors, up to 90 percent of students are getting placed in our branch. The highest placement on campus is 60 LPA, and the lowest is 7 LPA. Students are also getting internships from tech clubs of our college, like robotics and coding clubs. They are also going to different IITs and companies for their internships.
Infrastructure: The college is very good. The Wi-Fi speed is average; this is due to the large number of students. Classrooms are big and cool. Labs are also good. There are smart boards and AC in each classroom. The hostel is also good; rooms are better, and the quality of food in the mess is good. There are also inter- and intra-hall sports events organized every year. Medical facilities are also there, with ambulance service.
Faculty: The curriculum in my current year is better, not too extensive; a student can cover it easily. As we are in the first year, the course is the same for all departments. The semester exams in college are very strict and also difficult. But students study hard and get through them easily. The pass percentage is 87% in my college.
Other: As the semiconductor industry is a growing industry nowadays, I preferred this branch. Placement opportunities are good in this branch. The campus is a very good place to explore yourself. There are many events organized by this college. There are also four big fests. There are several types of clubs to improve your skills. Also, students from families with below 1 lakh income are getting waivers of tuition fees.

Hello Swami, If he got the branch of his choice in any NIT's then only send him to NIT's, but as you said he got very good rank in VIT so he can get good branches there. Send him to VIT, Vellore, because as per the latest NIRF ranking VIT secures 13th position surpassing many IITs and NITs.
