What Students Say

Likes

Nice, lush green campus, excellent atmosphere during rainy season which prevails for over 6 months a year.
Situated at a very good location from where you can explore various tourist and famous places present in souyh India.

Dislikes

Bicycles get rust very easily because it is situated in a coastal area.
Administration and management is very poor. Even small cases take months or sometimes years to be resolved.

Course Curriculum Overview

4.5

Course curriculum is excellent for my branch. It is very well coordinated with all the basics that are needed to cover aspects of this branch and it also overlaps with syllabus of GATE exam in this branch.

Class Size: 52Course Fees: INR 200000 per year

Internships Opportunities

Internship opportunities in this college depend a lot upon which branch you are taking admission in but sometimes even tech. Companies allow core students to sit for internship drive. It usually starts at the onset of 5th semester and you will be called for internship after end of 6th semester.

Placement Experience

4.5

As i mentioned above, placements are way above average. My dept. Average was around 10lpa but it is much higher for other branches. The placement percentage is easily above 80%. You just need to do the basic minimum and you will land yourself a job.

Fees and Financial Aid

As far as i can recall, we got notifications of around 5 plus scholarships in our entire tenure. Each semester's fees is around 1lakh including hostel and mess fees. Placement opportunities are pretty good too, considering it is the second best ranked NIT in India.

Campus Life

4.5

Infrastructure is way above many iits. Very nice hostel rooms with single occupancy starting 3rd year. The campus overall infrastructure is great too. Excellent sports complex and new dept. Buildings. NITK has over 10 student run clubs which people can join upon joining the institute.

Hostel Facilities

Hostel facility is above average but washrooms suck. We get shared accomodation till second year and after that single occupancy is provided. Hostel plus mess rent is around 32K per semester. Mess food quality is decent enough, just don't opt for Mega mess at any cost.

Hostel Fee: INR 65000 per year

Admission

My jee rank was 31k but with obc quota i got obc rank of 7.7k and with its help, made it to dept. Of mme in nitk, surathkal. Application process starts from jossa counselling after you clear jee mains exam within the required cutoff rank.

Faculty

3.5

Specifically in my department, we had altogether 15 course instructors which are more than enough considering the batch size and all the faculties know their subject very well. Most of them did their PhD. From foreign universities too.

My Honest Experience at CMRIT -Academics, placements and campus life

Likes

Faculties are good helpful nature and teaches well.
The aspects I appreciated the most are supportive faculty, good placements, and vibrant.

Course Curriculum Overview:

I chose this course at CMRIT mainly because the curriculum is updated as per VTU guidelines and includes modern subjects like AI, Machine Learning, Data Science, IoT and Cloud Computing along with strong core fundamentals. The inclusion of labs, mini-projects, and electives influenced my decision a lot. The curriculum prepares us well for real-world applications through project-based learning, internships, hackathons, industrial visits, and certification courses. Concepts taught in class are directly applied in labs and projects, which helps during placements and higher studies. One area for improvement is adding more industry-oriented electives and reducing some outdated theory portions. More hands-on workshops and coding practice in every semester would be helpful. Exams are conducted regularly - 2 internals per semester plus one semester-end exam. The timing is well planned with enough gap for preparation. Difficulty level is moderate; if you attend classes regularly and practice previous papers, you can score well. Overall, the curriculum is relevant, comprehensive, and career-focused.

Our campus is equipped with modern infrastructure
Every corner of campus has high speed wifi
There is sports facilities available for people who are interested in sports

Placement Experience:

As I am a 1st year student i couldn't provide much to this but as I have heard from senior the college provides an 6 to 8 LPA average package and companies like PhonePe, Juspay, eurofins, Hitachi visits the college for placements. Overall the placements are good if u are a hardworking student

Great faculty, modern campus, and 1:1 ratio
Rigorous curriculum, top labs, and 1:1 ratio
Vibrant campus life, excellent mentorship, infrastructure and ratio

Placement Experience:

Campus placement drives begin in the 7th semester with companies offering average packages around 4-6 LPA. While company visits vary each year, our professors work hard to provide us with strong domain knowledge and practical skills . Ultimately securing a role depends on personal efforts and i planned to leverage these skills for off campus placements

The great review

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.

Review for a Future aspirant

Likes

We have a temporary campus .which was taken as rent in goverment engeneering college raichur .and permanent campus was yet to finish by the time juniors come the permanent campus will be getting finished.just needed the proper campus no improvments
The campus life was not as expected by a student because here the cluns are not very active like in any other colleges , u can enjot a lot with your friends in your hostel.
Every branch has a faculty adviser we can meet them and discuss our problems with them .the faculry were very good they were well experienced ,they teach in general way as any teacher does on a digital board.

Dislikes

The placement cell is not that good , the students were not getting places for good amount of package as expected .
The labs were not well maintained that should be resolved that is the main problem in this college as well as library we have a very small library which is in a size of a regular class
Hostel was not within the campus which makes some difficulty to walk through the streets with roaming buses and cars and bikes , in our college boy girl ration was very less it is 1: 7 like that.

Placement Experience:

From 6th semester students are eligible for taking interships and they get placed in 7th semester and have to leave campus after 8th semester the highest would somewhere aroubd 20 lpa and avg would be 9 to 10 lpa . I plan to do Mtech in any reputed college by writing gate . The percentage of studebts getting placed are 70 %

Steps college as a part of admission procedure are as follows to apply for CUCET examination after qualifying in that examination we will be called for counselling, in counselling they will prepare merit list according to the marks obtained in the future of examination and 12th marks according to that they will provide seat for us.

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

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.

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
