Based on the reviews and feedback from students and alumni, here's what you can expect:

* Low Placements: M.E./M.Tech placements at NIT Silchar are not encouraging. While there are occasional visits from IT companies, the placement rate is low, especially for core engineering branches. Even among those who do get placed, salaries tend to be relatively lower (Rs. 2.5 - 5 Lacs).
* Limited Opportunities: The college doesn't prioritize M.E./M.Tech placements, and students may find themselves competing for limited opportunities. Additionally, the course curriculum might not be industry-ready, making it challenging for students to secure jobs.
* Scholarship Availability: On the bright side, scholarships are available for M.E./M.Tech and Ph.D. students, providing some relief for tuition fees.
* Good Infrastructure: The college has excellent infrastructure, including well-equipped labs, Wi-Fi-enabled classrooms, and comfortable hostel accommodations.
* Teaching Staff: Teachers are generally qualified and knowledgeable, but some students feel that they don't receive adequate industry exposure or guidance.
* Campus Life: NIT Silchar offers a vibrant campus life, with regular cultural events, festivals, and sports activities.
* Industry Exposure: Unfortunately, the college doesn't provide much scope for industry exposure, internships, or project-based learning, which might hinder students' growth and employability.

Considering these factors, while NIT Silchar may offer a good education, pursuing M.E./M.Tech without strong industry connections or placement assurances might lead to disappointment. Weigh your options carefully before making a decision.
