- The scholarship availability should not be below 5 lakh.. it should be a larger number beacuse 5 lakh income is lower income than a lower middle class family.
- The faculty advisor is a very rude and strict person who doesn't understand the student's problems.
- Placements for lower branches are not that good and being a remote area more companies are not coming to college

Placement Experience:
Most of the companies visit when folks are in 3rd year. In ceramic engineering, many people got selected analytics jobs very few were selected for core companies. Core companies like TATA Steel and Jindal Steel visit every year. 80% of students got placement. The highest package is 14 lakh and the average package is 7 lakh. You can't compare your placement packages with CSE guys. My plan is to grab good placements.

Similar to other NITs our campus also brings a good number of companies for internships and placements.
Both for circuital and non-circuital branches, some IT companies are open and various IT companies are open only for cse or circuital branches.
The average package is also decent i.e. around 10 LPA.

Placement Experience:
For the Ph.D. student, there is not any campus selection. After completion of Ph.D. course, I will join the college for teaching purposes. If I will write or published 2 or 3 national papers during my PhD then it will be very helpful for my future plan.

Course Curriculum Overview:
I choose mechanical Engineering because my goal is to join ISRO/NASA as a scientist and for that my 1st priority is for a mechanical branch. Faculty are all IIT, NIT Ph.D qualified. faculty to student ratio is 1:20 . Exams are not that much tough , you can pass exams just 2-3 days before studying.

Placement Experience:
The campus placements start in the final year. There are both core and non-core jobs that will be offered. Each company is divided into 3 categories and one student can take one job in each category. Some of the notable core companies at our campus include Exxon Mobil, HUL, Eli Lily, PCBL, JSPL, JSW, Aarti Industries, Coromandel, etc. Around 98-99% of people get placed with 1 -2 students getting left behind. The highest package in our branch was around 15 LPA and average around 5.5 - 6 LPA.

Placement Experience:
From the 5th Semester, many companies come with internship opportunities, and from the 7th sem, companies come for Full-time opportunities. As of now, the name of companies visited can't be disclosed as per the guidelines of the TnP cell, though the placement drive is going on in full swing. More than 65-70% of the final year students have been placed.
The highest and average packages are around 45 LPA and 11-12 LPA respectively.
My plans are to work in the core corporate sector after getting the degree.

Placement Experience:
From the 7th semester, students are eligible for campus placements. Before that, 5th semester students are eligible for campus internship opportunities which are handsomely paid internships by companies like Microsoft, Amazon, Barclays Hotstar and many more. More than 200 companies visit and offer 1200+ offers to students.
I plan to gain some expertise in my field after I graduate working with leading companies.

- Decent Internet speed is offered and the Dc++ is well maintained.
- The hostels are well-maintained and decked with all the basic amenities one could ask for.
- Students are actively involved in sports such as gymming and swimming.
- The faculties are a mixed bag. Some are underqualified and lethargic while some motivate you to become a better person.
- The institute boasts of an extensive entrepreneurship culture.

- The placement scenario varies from branch to branch. It's decent for branches like CS while pathetic for others.
- Rourkela does not have any places to explore and also lacks flight connectivity.
