Remarks:
It's one of the top ranked NIT in India and also it is well connected with major cities. The admission for M.Tech. is through CCMT and the counselling process is solely based on GATE score. The total admission process takes almost 2months including Normal round and special round as well. I searched for different colleges and different specializations on youtube, quora, other review sites. I enquired about the placement statistics as well. As my score was average it is very tough to get a seat in top NITs, but I kept believe on the process and finally I got my seat in NIT Rourkela after a long process. Also you have to pay separate registration fees for normal round and special round. You can give as much as preferences rank wise for different colleges and specializations. NIT Rourkela has very good infrastructure, study climate, central library, sports complexes etc. Also it is nearer to my hometown. NIT Rourkela has also very knowledgeous faculties. I think I got my best choice. Finally I am happy to be a part of NT atmosphere.

It's a top ranked University in NIRF Engineering at 16th postion India wide.
I had talked to the seniors who studied in this course previously, they've suggested me that it's a good course and the placements are also very good.
Being one of the oldest NITs, there will be many opportunities for the students in terms of placements and curriculum.

Good aspects - NIT Rourkela is a well established college with a glorious past. The alumni network is amazing and is growing exponentially. Placement scenario is way above average and research opportunities are the best. The campus life is something to die for, club culture is thriving and amazing people from all over India and abroad join hands to sustain a conducive ecosystem for growing personally and professionally in all aspects of life.Bad aspects - Poor administration and rigid outdated curriculum.

A friend at NIT Rourkela gave me a detailed review of her college the last time she visited me. Here are some highlights from her descriptive experience
- NIT Rourkela has a huge, serene, and well-secured campus.
- The institute has diverse clubs that promote extracurricular activities and their performance is better than most clubs of other engineering colleges.
- 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 institute needs to work on increasing its alumni base and the level of fests it organizes given the huge income the institute generates.
- 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.
- The city of Rourkela is one of the cleanest places so hygiene is not an issue here.
These were some snippets from the detailed experience shared by my friend. Hope this helped you.
