What Students Say

Likes

Campus is very huge, beautiful and secure. Hostels are also well built and equipped with all required facilities.
Many opportunities are available like working under well established professors, technical and non technical clubs, sports, quality of education and even startup culture is appreciated and blooming.
Easy to build a good network with students as well as professors

Dislikes

Hostels have issues like water and power outages, hostel mess is below average.

Course Curriculum Overview

4.5

The curriculum doesn't focus only on theoretical knowledge but also includes labs and projects that help us get hands-on experience. Labs are well equipped with the latest equipment at all times. Projects help us build our resumes as well.

Class Size: 137Course Fees: INR 125000 per year

Internships Opportunities

There are more than 100 companies which come on campus for internships. Stipend can range from 20000 per month to 1.77 lakhs per month depending on the job role as well as the company. Projects can be done as a part of the course itself or professors can be contacted individually and projects can be done under them. Technical clubs offer projects every year.

Placement Experience

4.5

Students are eligible for on campus placements from 7th semester. Average package for ECE is usually 21 LPA and highest can go upto 40 LPA. Students are eligible for on campus internship from 5th semester. Interns can be paid upto 1.77 lakhs per month. I am planning to work for a few years after completing my degree and then go for masters abroad.

Fees and Financial Aid

Tution fee is Rs. 62500 per semester which is very less compared to private engineering colleges. Not only the course, but working under technical and non technical clubs helps us gain experience and also teaches real life values like team management, work-life balance etc., Various scholarships are provided throughout the course.

Campus Life

There are 2 fests a year , cultural fest in March known as Incident and a technical fest in October as Engineer. There are various technical and non technical clubs which encourages all kinds of interests among students. Currently I am joint secretary at Institution of Engineers,NITK which is one of the 5 exclusive technical clubs on campus. I am also a part of the Quizzing Society, a web developer at TEDxNITKSurathkal, a marketing executive at Incident,NITK and a member of the NITK Chess Team.

Hostel Facilities

4.5

Hostel facilities are good. The rooms are big and spacious. But there are frequent water and power issues during the summer. The mess quality is bad but the vegetarian mess is better than the non vegetarian mess. There are many canteens and cafes in campus which are cheap and good.

Hostel Fee: INR 60000 per year

Admission

Only students who have scored above 99 percentile in JEE Mains are eligible for BTech in ECE at NITK under the general category. Reservation benefits for other categories are available. Applications aren't there, admission is done through JOSAA counselling.

Faculty

Faculties at NITK are the best of the country. Every professor is an IIT graduate and many have international experience as well. Most faculties are very helpful and as the intake of NITK is less, it is easy to communicate with professors.

Yes the first thing I liked is the campus and the environment there is no harrasment and strict action will be taken.
And second thing is faculty members are so helpful and they always help to students and different festival
And also the campus provide all facilities and make helps to sports and ration is almost equal of boys and girls

Dislikes

Yes some things are there which I disliked first is the campus is very strict and no function are organised yearly ones or twice is very sad thing as compared to other campus
Second thing is food students facing some problem with the food which hear prepared so outsiders facing lot of problems
Third is about hostel facility is good but very strict only once a week the students should go out side and write leave letter to go there native places.

Placement Experience:

Students got opportunity to eligible after 3rd year mainly in 7th semester students get opportunity for campus interview. In my college the company which came to hire is congizent and microsoft and amezon and dell nearly 80 to 90 company are came. The company offers is highest is 40 lack per annum which google provide and minimum is 4lack . Mainly 80 percent of the students are placed every year but due to war happened in the global impact in placement I want to do masters in abroad and then go to the company

Likes

very first thing i like in the college is the wifi network,
the library which is very peace and silent
average places to take photos and nearby there is nandi hills to visit

Dislikes

i dislike the distance of the college, its too large, should walk soo much
the cost of stationaries in the general store
i dont think so faculy are that much expertise , only countable people worth it

Course Curriculum Overview:

see i have choosed this course because it is very relatable to CSE, coz my ranking was not sufficient to get this course. the course which i took "Information Science and Engineering" is really a good course. they make us real world engineers. the area they shld actually improve is, hiring worthable faculty.

Likes

Canteen is fine has nice and tasty food and quite a lot of options
Library is also good has every book related to my course and few others as well
Lab facilities are also very nice and the college has a nice crowd

Dislikes

It's nothing like I expected, they don't let students use the ground or turfs. Facilities are pretty bad.
They charge money for everything and has zero facilities for college students. Everything is for there school students.
College is very small and the faculties are rude to students. (Mostly the case)

Placement Experience:

Student are eligible for placements from there 7th semester but I wouldn't recommend relying on college for placements. Not many companies come to this college so placements are really bad. If u have skills it would be better to apply to companies on your own. I don't have details on how many students gets placed but as much as I know it's about 30-50 % And average package is also very low. I plan of gaining skills and certification on my own and job hunting myself in 4th year through my connections and internships. Or maybe go abroad for masters As I'm a first year student I don't know much about which companies come and how much they offer.

NITK - The Dream Institute

This college is one of the top engineering college in india ,even top than many IITs etc. ,this college is at very decent nirf anking,naturally location is also very beautiful, the branch i wantes to take has nice average placement in this college, this college have its private beach. Other collleges are also good i filled my preference choices according to my rank i got this college . this college was at my second choice place and i got this in my last councelling round . I am so grateful to destiny and my hardwork ,support of parents and teachers. On my first preference order NIT Trichy was there as my branch has good past academics and placements. I got NITRourkela tilll 5th round of josaa . And in final round I got NITK and I locked it as i only wanted to take it. I got rejected by NITT becouse of may be my rank . as others were deserving that more than me. Admission in college is the last step to get into the college.these engineering colleges are taking admissions through the exam named JEE Mains and Advanced.The eligibility for this exam is the student who is studying in class 12th or till 2 yrs dropper can give exam with subjects taken PCM or PCMB in +1 /+2.they have to clear the CBT based exam and than cutoffs comes and colleges are taking students by councelling process. The JEE Mains exam is for 3 hours and Advanced is for 6 hours with parts of two 3-3 hours in paper-1 and 2 .Cutoffs for general in mains for year 2025 was 93 percentile ....Read More

A mini heaven on earth called NITK

After GATE exam, I applied to almost all top NITs like NIT Trichy, NIT Surathkal, NIT Warangal, NIT Calicut etc during CCMT counselling . I had also applied in IIT Dhanbad in COAP counselling. I got IIT Dhanbad in 8th round. I spoke to my coaching Sir, he had advised me to go for top 3 NITs rather than IIT Dhanbad. Since these three NITs are well established and offer better placement opportunities as compared to IIT Dhanbad which is relatively a new IIT. One needs to qualify GATE exam to get a shot at taking admission in IITs/NITs. Once you qualify the GATE exam you can then look at specific colleges cutoff for admission. I got NIT Surathkal in special round 1 which was held after 3 regular rounds. I preferred NIT Surathkal as compared to other NITs since its considered in top 3 NITs and also it's near my home as compared to NIT Trichy....Read More

Great campus life with good placement and private beach, a place like heaven for engineering

After the cutfoffs are released by CSAB i got a seat in NITK, Information Technology. I prefered this college because of the campus (private beach), placements statuts, and seniors recommondation. After seat allotment from Jossa we get a reporting period. On that day we can complete the Admission Process. On my reporting day many seniors ( mostly from 2nd year) helped me and other students, so the process went smooth....Read More

Nitk review

I had applied to other iits, but the courses I wanted weren't as good as the one I was getting in nitk, so though it was a tough call, i finnally opted for the cse branch over here. Our college takes in candidates from the jee mains examination, which is done through josaa councelling. Cutoffs starts somewhere around 50k for the lowest branch and could go as higher as 2000 for branches like cse through general quota. With even higher cutoffs from students outside the state...Read More
