Review of NIT Trichy - National Institute of Technology.
Placements: The placement scenario at the college is very promising, with top companies such as Amazon, Google, Texas Instruments, NVIDIA, and Synopsys coming for both placements and internships. Although the competition is quite intense. 90% of students in my course secured internships, with an average salary of 20 LPA. The top roles available include web developer, full-stack developer, and digital and analog electronics engineer, among others.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure of the college is good with a big library and, a centralized AC room with computers to work on projects or study. The sports facility is also very good here with an indoor sports complex and outdoor sports stadium for different sports. The quality of mess food is also good and the hostels are above average.
Faculty: Teachers are very good here with high talents. The curriculum is very much relevent with modern courses. It really makes student industry perfect. Semester exams are a bit difficult but overall it is good. The pass percentage is approximately 99%. Teachers are helpful to the students.

Placements: I don't have any figures, but the percentage of placed students will be around 90%. The highest salary was 53 lakhs, and the average salary was 27 lakhs. I don't have any idea about the lowest salary; it may be around 12-15 lakhs. All big companies visit the campus, like Google, Microsoft, Adobe, D.E. Shaw, etc. The internship percentage will be around 30%-50%, but I don’t have specific figures.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure is good enough, with very fast Wi-Fi and good labs, but there is no AC in any classroom or some labs. Other facilities are decent, but the hostel is not so good in terms of infrastructure, like the quality of washrooms. There is also no washing machine in the hostel.
Faculty: Teachers are helpful if you study well and pay attention in class. They are well qualified and knowledgeable, but the quality of teaching is not so good. This is partly due to the students, as many don’t take an interest in the subjects, which causes teachers to lose interest in teaching as well.
Other: In the computer science course, the curriculum is not very industry-oriented. Additionally, the college doesn't provide enough funds for sports materials.

NIT Trichy - The Pride of India.
Placements: Students become eligible to sit for the placement from the end of the 3rd semester. The highest package is about 55 LPA. In core branches like CSE, EEE, ECE, and ICE, the placement percentage is above 90%. For an internship, companies visit during the start of the 3rd year. However, we can do a research internship under our professor. There is a high chance of getting an off-campus internship because of the college's brand. There are projects during the academic course plan itself.
Infrastructure: Recently, new Wi-Fi has been installed in all hostels. The labs and classrooms are quite spacious, and the mess food is quite good. There is no requirement for PGs in NIT Trichy because there are sufficient rooms to accommodate all the students. The hostel and mess fees are around Rs. 45,000 per semester. There are a variety of messes, where we can choose South Indian mess, North Indian mess, Andhra mess, and Kerala mess. Hostel rooms are very spacious with 3 cupboards, and a table/chair for each student.
Faculty: The faculty-to-student ratio is around 1:11. The faculty members are very supportive, you can approach them anytime after the class if you have any doubts. Currently, I am in my 4th semester. Till now, my favourite teacher has been Raja Sir, who teaches AC machines. He is a genius, the only class that I have never missed a single day till now. Till now, I haven't gotten any professors whom I don't like, it's just that I might not be able to understand their class, but if I approach them for any doubts, they resolve our doubts.
