Faculty is Good but still for the new student dont't expect much you have to study by your own teacher will help with the exams question pattern.
Student engagement is good monthly shows, game competition like cricket match, football, basketball, tennis, volleyball, hackathons and many more things

Mess food is not as expected as it was on first day of joining the college, water contains too much iron
Teachers will not give that much attention to the students

Likes

The weather there is just like when you come out from your hostel it seems like a mountain you above the cloud all feels like so energetic
Ofcourse you will receive a good friends here if you good only then only otherwise negative people as well
yes the local food which is famous like thupa chowmin faley chura mimi

Dislikes

the faciliy was not much in the hostel as well as the classroom but still whatever is affordable is giving
The girls to boyes ratio is very less so take care for that
The rules and regulation and yes the mess regulation so discutting

Placement Experience:

Placement is all about your preparation as opportunities come too much but if you have power then crack that one. Highest was going in 2024 batch is 44 lpa and 66 percent was placed as there are recession going on this time due to covid all market crases.

Likes

Good environment, with the campus being beautiful.
Lots of activities, have taken part in many.
The seniors and teacher here are really friendly and helpful.

Dislikes

There are a lot of exams, with the college following the same old system followed by most engineering colleges.

Placement Experience:

I do not have much idea about this field. If I'm not wrong internships begin from 2nd to 3rd year itself, and placements from 4th year. The avergae package here is around 6 LPA, and the highest package offered is 56 LPA. That'll be all from side.

NIT Sikkim detailed Review and insights

Likes

I liked the faculty as they are very supportive and teach well.
The distraction free environment as there are no malls, clubs, etc. to waste your time so that you can focus on skill development
The exposure you get being in NIT as it is an institute of National Importance.

Dislikes

During rainy season it creates a lot of problem as there are a lot of leeches there and we are afraid to go out.
The mess food is not up to the mark and tasteless, although it is a problem with every mess
The hostels are very congested and we dont get place to sit on a table and study.

Placement Experience:

After 5th semester, the college has on-campus internship options and after during 7th semester, you will be eligible to sit for campus placements. Many companies come for campus placement including IBM, NVIDIA, Deloitte, etc. PLacements for CSE, ECE, and EEE are very good. In 2023 highest placement was from EEE of 44 lakhs from NVIDIA. In Mechanical most of the students get PPO. For Civil, very least options are available. Usually, 80% of students get placed every year.
