There is a placement commitee in our college that takes care of this, In 3rd year we start applying for internship and from 4thyear there are campus placement. Almost 70-80% get placed there are others that opt for govt jobs and further education. I plan for a psu or government job after the degree is over.

The room for us 3rd year is big and you can run a kettle and other electrical appliances. Registration for hostel with the warden and caretaker during the start of the year. In some hostel you can chose and in others they allot you room. The food is sometimes good, most of times bad. The food is mostly undercooked.

I was born and raise in rourkela, it would be nice i have gone to any other college, but my family wanted me near them, NIT rourkela as been my first priority, but given the choice IIT delhi would be better, never cleared Jee advance but never actually tried. It would have been better to spent time in a new city

In my mechanical department they are 114 students, there are close to 40 professor then there are lot of mtech and phd senior who help them run all the labs plus classes. There are also lab assistant, and management that take care of the day to day. The best professor will be srinivas behera, they took our Mechanics of Solid in 3rd semester and taking Meterolgy in 5th semester. He is very good in teaching topics, even though he is new. The worst professor will be tanmoy bose, he never gives full marks even if you do the question like he does in class, if you somehow get good marks in exams, he will find ways to cut marks in TA and the maximum you will get is A grade, he rarely gives excellent. His teaching skills are poor or down right pathetic, I never understood anything he taught in class. There are mid sem and end sem exam. Mid sem - 30% End sem - 50% TA ( Teacher Assessment) - 20% Depends on teacher but includes class test, attendance etc.

There are gym in every hostel, there is a central library, there are several restaurants inside the campus and canteens are located inside the hostel. Hostel timing for first year, they have to go insde at 8.30. From 2nd year you can stay outside, for whatever you feel like it. You have to sign in the registor after 12 but its no bigge. Then the night canteen closes around 1am. Famous hangout spot will be jagda and backpost
