Remarks
I gave JEE Entrance Exam and got admission to NIT Trichy through JOSAA Counselling. You can visit the jeemain.nta.nic site for information regarding the entrance exam and visit josa.nic.in for information regarding the counseling process. For 2021 the cutoff for B.Tech in Mechanical Engineering course was 9035 for Other State and 14037 for the Home state (General Category). For my year admission process was very late due to Covid but other than that the process is very smooth and I had no other difficulties.
Course Curriculum Overview
I chose Mechanical Engineering cause I like this course. Even when I was young I used to open up appliances in my home which had gone wrong and see the different parts. We have a class of 69 students and there are separate teachers for all the subjects in the course. The teachers are very qualified and have a lot of knowledge. As I am from the North I sometimes have a bit of difficulty in understanding one or two teachers but it is not a very big problem as after some time you get used to it. Our first-year duration was cut short to half to cover up the gap due to Covid. But it didn't seem that the faculty was rushing through the syllabus.
Internships Opportunities
I have not started an internship as I am in my first year. But for past years I can tell that there are many Research internships that NIT Trichy has to offer. You can also apply for Company internships by contacting them directly.
Placement Experience
Over 220 companies visit NIT Trichy for placements like Google, Facebook, Sony, Reliance, Amazon, TATA, Volvo, etc. I myself am in the first year so have very little info regarding placements. After I get my B.Tech degree I plan to apply for Masters for doing Research.
