NIT Rourkela for M.Tech electronic and communication course intake in 2025-26.
Placements: Total 4 to 5 batches were available, and total 300 students got admission in this course. Many companies were interested and hiring the students. The highest package was 4 LPA to 10 LPA provided by the college.
Infrastructure: In this college, infrastructure quality was very good. The college canteen food was very good. High-quality food was provided at this college. Every year organised sports and games tournaments were held for every student but they charged Rs 100 for participating in events.
Faculty: College faculty members were also good. College teachers were very educated and very helpful to the students. This course had total 8 teachers and was allocated separately for the practical lecture. This course was very difficult to pass because there were 300 marks compulsory to clear the exam out of 800 marks, and there were all subjects marks.

My honest review about my college.
Placements: Placement was 100% for those who were interested. It also provided internships to other institutes. But those students who were studying at this college were not allowed to do an internship in its own institute. All companies in our stream were related to coaching institutes.
Infrastructure: M.Sc. electronics and communication was a technical course. Course had many software simulation software like MATLAB, PSpice, and HDL for circuit designing, computation, and automation control systems. Here, the foremost focus was on the students to develop new interests in their interested fields. Hostel rooms were the best. For masters students, they provided single room. There were 7 hostels, 5 for boys and 2 for girls. Each hostel had on average 500 rooms. Everyday they clean bathrooms, toilets, and hostels. Each week, they spread mosquito pesticide.
Faculty: Course covers most of the part of the CSIR UGC NET life science syllabus distributed in 4 semesters which helped clear CSIR UGC NET GATE BARC, ICMR, TIFR, IISC, DBT, etc. exams. Also includes 1 year of project work which will enhance your research skills and experience. There were 14 faculty members in life science department. All were post doctorate and had fruitful research background with many funding bodies. All faculty members were highly experienced, and experts in their relevant field with many publications.

Faculty: Supportive professors and administrative staff.
Placements: Infosys, TCS, Capgemini, etc. and all service-based companies are our regular recruiters. Microsoft and Google have visited the campus and gave the highest package of 2500000. Tata Ceramics, Cera, and Vedanta recruit ceramic engineers. All of us are placed in my batch from Ceramic Engineering. Alumni is very strong for our NIT; this is more than 60-year-old college. I have no idea on startups from my batch.
Infrastructure: We have dual sharing rooms and single sharing rooms divided across 11 different hostels. Meal quality is quiet horrible but edible. Registration for the hostel and its affordability are quite stringent. But there is a provision for pure vegetarian eaters among all hostilities.
Faculty: The M.Tech program at NIT Rourkela features a well-structured curriculum with a mix of core and elective courses. The faculty members are experienced and well-qualified. I selected this program for its Ph.D. or equivalent degrees and its academic reputation, industry connections, and research opportunities. NIT Rourkela maintains a favorable faculty-to-student ratio, ensuring individualized attention and guidance. The faculty holds employs a practical, application-oriented teaching approach. Term exams are typically conducted on schedule, and pass difficulty varies by course, with ample support provided for success.

Wonderful and Beautiful Campus and infrastructure.
Placements: The average placement here is decent, but the highest package always amazes us. This time it was 21 LPA, which is pretty good. Students are eligible for campus placements starting in the 7th semester. Talking about the companies, you won't get to see companies like Google and Microsoft, but companies like Infosys, Wipro, TCS, Cognizant, and Capgemini do visit the campus and offer pretty good packages.
Infrastructure: Hostel Facilities: In the hostel room, there is a LAN connection with a 3 mbps speed and unlimited data. No AC is divided in the hostel room. The hostel's food menu and food quality are very good. Once you are admitted to NITR, the hostel will automatically be allocated. 100% residence; in some special/medical cases, some may stay outside the campus.
Faculty: I think MTech in the electronics field is a good option. It has huge research and application potential. The faculty-student ratio is good, almost 10:1. The faculty members are all Ph.D.s from IITs. They are well-experienced. There are two- semesters in a year. There is one midterm and one end-term exam in a semester. All question papers are prepared based on the topics covered. The weekly quizzes are tough. Other exams are moderately difficult to pass.
