Overall Rating
I study in NIT Rourkela. I started my journey in 2024. It is an amazing experience for me. The environment and the campus area are too good. The infrastructure is very best for any institute-going students. Here 85% attendance is must. The academics are much strong and a little bit strict that any other general institute. The placement statics is so good and culture is so I chose it.
 

Academics Rating
I choose Metallurgy and Materials department. For admission in this institute we have to qualify JEE Main exam with a good rank. For admission, when the counseling start the student come to institute and do the complete admission procedure. There are one mid and one end semester exam per semester. So academics help a lot to student to increase their skills.
The fee is around 10 Lakh for total course for general students. However, a criterion is someone father income is less than 1 Lakh or less than 5 Lakh some fee is reduced for them in their academic fee.
 

Faculty Rating
The faculty is good and some faculty is very strict about their academics. Their method of teaching is mainly pot and discussion in the class. They give a lot of assignment and a proper class test within a month. The teacher -student ration at institute is 4:10. Yeah many faculty members are so helpful and assist us in many research paper.
 

Placement Rating
The placement cell is very active. They help a lot to grab any internship or placement. They inform the student about various company who recruit the students at that time. They also help student to guide that how they prepare for their internship. The highest package in my department around 24 LPA and the medium will be 16 LPA. Many MNCs companies like Amazon, Google, Infosys, TCS, and others come in our institute. I am in my 2nd year so my placement journey is yet to start.
 

Hostel Rating
Yeah, the institute provides many hostels. I am in the vicar Surabhi hall of residence. It is too good. Hostel area has so much greenery. There are separate boys’ and girls’ hostel. The mess quality is medium and easy to spend the life. The hostel has strict rules. You should enter in the hostel before midnight. My experience is too good and I enjoyed a lot in my hostel with my friends.
 

Infrastructure Rating
The campus size of NIT Rourkela is around 1220 acre, but around 600 acres are forest, other area is for academics, hostel, temples, clubs, and ground. There is one big library and small reading room in each hostel. There are two auditoriums. My favorite thing in my institute is the greenery; it is inside a lot of greenery area. There are many canteen is there. Many sports ground also there.
 

Campus Rating
My overall campus life is so enjoying and learning full. It provides me to increase my skills. There are more than 20 clubs in different activates that help the student to grow according to their own interest. yeah I m part of one club called knight which is chess club, many fest like Innovision, NIT Utsav or other many fest organized by the institute. All students enjoy a lot during this fest. My experience is amazing here. It follows proper discipline than any other institute.
