B.Tech. in Electrical Engineering - Batch of 2018

4.2

Fees are lower compared to other NITs.

Placements: Placement of our college is really amazing as compared to all the NITs in India. As this year is 2025, the highest placement stood at 96 LPA from the mechanical engineering department, which is really a great thing. Also, the average placement of our college is 13 LPA, which is really good.

Infrastructure: I really loved the playgrounds, as these are huge, and also the inter-branch competition, which is held every year, is very exciting. The hostel facilities are quite good. The mess food is average but adjustable. There is 24/7 internet, no issue with that. The bathroom is well furnished, and housekeeping is really good. They come every morning and clean the staff. Classrooms are spacious and digitally updated. The library is good, and it is open for 24 hours. There are many grounds for different sports.

Faculty: The faculty members are very cooperative. Professors can speak fluent English, so there are no language barriers among students and faculty. They are well educated and well disciplined. The course curriculum is one of the best in the world, as there are many things that other colleges don't implement, but our college does. The world-class course curriculum is the reason for the success of many students who have studied here.

The college and the surroundings are also very good.

Placements: In the B.Tech Mechanical Engineering course, around 75–80 percent of students get placed in the latest placement drive. The highest package offered is around 18 LPA. The lowest is 4 LPA. The average package is nearly 7 LPA. Top recruiting companies include Tata Motors, Mahindra, L&T, JSW, Cummins, Vedanta, Infosys, Wipro, and TCS. Nearly 60 percent of students receive internships, with companies like Tata Steel, JSW, IOCL, HPCL, and L&T offering good opportunities. Top roles offered are Graduate Engineer Trainee (GET), Design Engineer, and Production Engineer.

Infrastructure: The campus is beautiful, surrounded by greenery and lakes. This gives a calm and refreshing vibe even during stressful exam weeks. The infrastructure is pretty good. It includes well maintained hostels, labs, and sports facilities. The Wi-Fi sometimes tests your patience, but that is part of the fun here.

Faculty: In Mechanical Engineering, there are five teachers from the top 2% of the world who joined two months ago. The course curriculum is relevant, and we do labs that help us adapt to the industry. The exams for Mechanical Engineering students are very tough. We have to be able to handle complex computations on our own. Academically, the college provides a decent environment for learning. Some professors are truly inspiring and supportive. While others might make you question your life choices during lectures. Still, the overall academic culture encourages teamwork, innovation, and curiosity.

Other: Our batch is a mix of tech enthusiasts, gamers, and night owls. They somehow manage to finish assignments right before the deadline. We are balancing chain breaks with project submissions. It creates memories that last longer than our sleep schedules. NIT Silchar provides one of the most vibrant college experiences.

Satisfied with the placement record in the last 3 years.

Placements: As I am from the CSE batch, my college has a good placement record overall and a better one in the CSE branch. In my course, nearly 70 per cent were placed, and the highest package was 55 LPA in 2025 and an average package of over 15 LPA in CSE. Oracle, Tata, and Atlantis are top recruiters. Some students also got placed at Amazon and Microsoft. Over 40-50 per cent of students have internship opportunities. Data scientists and data engineers are the top roles offered during placement.

Infrastructure: NIT Silchar was built on a total of 625 acres. A nature-rich campus with more than 20 lakes and 2-3 gardens. Classrooms are digitalised. The infrastructure for the CSE course is good, labs are well managed, and a LAN (Ethernet) is provided to every hostel room. Hostel maintenance is above average, and there are 9 boys' hostels and 4 girls' hostels. Food quality is good, and our college has a good sports management team. We have a dispensary clinic in the college itself.

Faculty: Every teacher is well qualified. They have good knowledge about the subject. They were helpful for exam purposes. Their notes were very valuable. NIT curriculum is relevant and makes students industry-ready. Curriculum is improved according to upcoming technology changes. The semester exams' difficulty level is medium to hard. The pass percentage is 85-90 every semester.

Other: I chose this course because I had an interest from the beginning, and this college is good, especially in CSE. I wish there could be more change in the curriculum of 1st year students. Campus fests and events are good. We have a technical fest in the odd sem and a cultural fest in the even sem.

Good college as a NIT and good placement +.

Placements: In EE at NIT Silchar, around 87% of students got placed. The highest package this year is 44 LPA, offered by Amazon. While core placements are moderate, many students secured good roles in tech and software companies. EE graduates from NIT Silchar secure roles in power systems, embedded systems, automation, software development, data analysis, IT services, consulting, electronics design, and core electrical companies like L&T and Schneider.

Infrastructure: NIT Silchar EE department has decent labs and LAN access, but classrooms lack modern facilities, and teaching quality varies. However, hostel life is vibrant and enjoyable with good mess food, clean rooms, friendly environment, and making campus life memorable.

Faculty: NIT Silchar follows a semester system with continuous assessment through quizzes, mid and end-term exams. EE curriculum includes theory, labs, and projects. Teachers are knowledgeable but teaching quality varies across subjects. Relatively grading at NIT Silchar does exist, but its impact is limited some students report that although the institute uses relatively grading, the presence of high-performing peers (toppers) often makes the system functional similar to absolute grading. Here's how CGPA matters, to be eligible for branch change (if it's allowed), you generally need around 8.0+ CGPA, for popular branches like CSE/ECE, top students often score 8.8-9.1+.

Other: I chose EE at NIT Silchar for its core value, career scope, and NIT tag. Campus life is peaceful, and hostel life is enjoyable with LAN and friendly peers. Though academics can be tough and classrooms average. Overall, experience is enriching.

Placement and college life of NIT Silchar.

Placements: The top 20 students in civil engineering are selected for placement at L&T; however, due to Covid, only about 4 to 5 have been placed. Most students from all engineering branches secure positions in their respective fields, but only a few reputable IT companies participate in the placement process and recruit candidates.

Infrastructure: NIT Silchar has the largest library in Asia, and the classrooms and labs are being modernized. The Wi-Fi speed is quite good in all academic areas, although it only works in the hostel lanes. The classrooms are in a very peaceful location where students enjoy studying and exploring.

Faculty: Civil Engineering has the top facilities in terms of knowledge and experience in theoretical and practical as well. I just enjoyed the whole classes of civil engineering. Practice like surveying and soil-related are very knowledgeable and helpful in higher studies.

B.Tech. in Electronics and Instrumentation Engineering - Batch of 2028

4.4

5.0Placements4.0Infrastructure4.0Faculty5.0Crowd & Campus Life4.0Value for Money

NIT Silchar is good in placements and campus life. City life is poor, that's all.

Placements: My batch is Electronics and Instrumentation Engineering, in which about 90% of students are getting placed with an average package of 15 LPA. Top recruiters are Google, Microsoft, and Amazon. The highest package is 60 LPA, and the lowest package is 7 LPA.

Infrastructure: Facilities of the hostel and the infrastructure of the Electronics and Instrumentation branch are very good, even EI is known as the coolest branch of NIT Silchar. The food quality of the hostel is above average. Canteen is good but a little bit cheaper, and vegetarians may face problems.

Faculty: Faculty members at the National Institute of Technology are good. They are highly qualified and knowledgeable, few faculties are among the top 2% of scientists. The course curriculum is fantastic, but the semesters are a little bit tougher than other colleges, but overall good.

Other: NIT Silchar is heaven on earth.

The college has good infrastructure.

Placements: Around 55-65, students got placed in civil engineering. The highest package was around 15 LPA in civil engineering the lowest was around 5-6 LPA and the average was 7-8 LPA. The top recruiting companies were Flipkart and Amazon for supply chain management. Around 30-40% of students got internships either on-campus and off -campus. The top roles offered were the site engineer and the management job.

Infrastructure: The quality is not top-notch but the basic facilities like clean drinking water clean washrooms and a bathroom are available, the food qualities are not too bad it can fill your stomach for the 3 times of the day and the snacks are available the canteen foods are good. For the medical facilities. We have a dispensary where basic medicine is available and for the sports. We have football and cricket grounds for the outdoor games and for the indoor games, we have a sports complex.

Faculty: Teachers are helpful, qualified, and knowledgeable but some are a little rude. The teaching qualities varies teacher to teacher but overall it a good. Yes, the course curriculum is relevant and helpful in the student industry. The semester exams are not that tough, a student can pass by studying one night before the exam. The pass percentage is around 85%.

Other: I chose this course because I am interested in learning more and more about the buildings. How they are built. The best thing is we can put it in our day-to-day life. I would suggest that more technical instruments should be available in the college for better learning. The events, fest, and campus crowd all are so supportive and good.

Decent placement ratio in 2025.

Placements: 60+ out of 84 students from my branch are in the 2025 passing batch. The highest package this year was 44 LPA for the 2021-2025 batch. The average package is above 13 LPA, which is average. The top recruiting companies are Amazon, Swiggy, and Microsoft. The ratio of placement for mechanical engineering students has increased, and the scene has gotten better.

Infrastructure: All classes are digital classrooms. Labs are decent. My department is very good, with enough instruments available for experiments. The Wi-Fi provided by the library is good. However, we have LAN in the hostel, and we don't have a Wi-Fi connection. The mess food is average. There is a medical dispensary right next to the girls' hostel. The sports facilities are also good.

Faculty: Teachers are well-qualified and very knowledgeable. It is good to be in contact with them for greater insight into career options. The teaching quality is above average. Some teachers are surely not good. They just don't put effort into teaching, but the rest are excellent. My course prepares students for both teaching and core placements as it provides opportunities for both. Semester exams are not too tough to pass, but they need a good amount of preparation to pass the subject. The pass percentage is more than 90% for my branch.

Other: I chose this course as it provides me with core and teaching opportunities. It is easy, and I can explore a lot here because it is still growing. It would be better if the course could be a little updated. Events and fests keep taking place all year round. But this year, our annual fest was not good. Connectivity is not that good. It is an open campus.
