Vivek Singh's Review On National Institute Of Technology - [NIT], Raipur

No matter how perfect you are there is always room to get better so is the NITRR. Faculties are good and no doubt that students enrolling into the university are better than previous year because competition is getting stiffer therefore, to get the best o

AIEEE was the exam I took to get into NITRR, I secured state rank under 500.First off, NIT itself is brand and you are branded for your life after earning the degree from here besides the college reputation was so good that I couldn't think of going anywhere else it was established in 1964 and popularly known for the triple M i.e. Mechanical, Metallurgy and Mining.

For the first year engineering almost every branch has the same curriculum course work is well structured as far as metallurgical engineering branch is concerned however, there were few courses during my undergraduate happened to be obsolete which later after I graduated got revised.

In my knowledge there are Organisations public and private which have tie ups for offering college internship and scholarship like OP JINDAL conduct interviews of TOP 10 student of the University and grant scholarship to the top three who get through the interview.

Placements and Job opportunities are best in the state around 100+ companies visits to the college for campus recruitment and almost all the students get placed mining, Mechanical, Metallurgy, IT and computer science have high placements percentage.

There are one major technical event of NITRR, which takes place in mid February of every year this is national level event where colleges from across India participates online or offline by visiting campus there are also media partners and sponsors for the event.

Till 2012 it was 10k/ semester, which was very cheap as compared to any private colleges in the state now again fees has increased to 17k/semester still cheap as compared to any colleges in the state.

Many scholarships are available for the really brilliant students and also for the one who are descent in studies but who are less privileged less privileged one got free books and their fees (exam & tution) subsidised SBI readily offered to the NITRR students.

Campus life was descent not very glamorous as you see in movies for extracurricular and sports you have gym, play grounds, badminton and tennis court labs are not so good and equipment are quite old they lack funding for these facilities there are communities which organises debate competition and invites students after selecting the best from the neighbouring colleges in the state or other state.

Old hostels were not so good but it was very affordable the newly constructed buildings for both boys and girls are really good and affordable.

Alumni are there but not so active I myself is an alumni now but have not visited college after graduating but there must be active alumni who must be visiting and doing something good to college soon I will also join the group and start giving back to my college.

Exam fee is very minimal during my undergraduate years it was 1000rs/ semester now it must have increased but still affordable it would be.

Faculties of metallurgical engineering branch are very helpful and they neither put unwanted pressure on their students professors like Dr. Manoj Chokar, Manwendra Tripathi, A.P Rajimwaale and Manoranjan are very recognised faces in field of Metallurgy.
