Top roles offered are quality control engineer, design engineer, product engineer, etc.

Infrastructure: Wi-Fi is available in my hostel, but it creates problems sometimes, so the hostel has recently installed LAN cables. They work really great, up to a speed of more than 80 Mb/s. Classrooms are well cleaned and have AC too. Library infrastructure is also great; a plenty of books are available, which you can issue any time from 10 AM to 5 PM. Mess food is not that great, but it's average. Breakfast is tastier than lunch and dinner. The menu is decided by the students committee, so if you need an alternative dish, you can vote for a menu change.

Faculty: Faculty at NIT Kurukshetra is great and well qualified; all teachers are supportive and helpful. The course curriculum is designed to make students ready for industry. In order to pass end-semester exams, you need to score 20/50; the exam level is between moderate to hard, but you can score easily 35+ if you prepare previous year questions. Also, there are 2 mid-semester exams of 15 marks each. In order to pass mid-semester exams, you need to score a total of 20/50; the rest of the 20 marks are divided, 10 for attendance and 10 for TA.

Other: Our college fests are at the next level, and they are so enjoyable. There are mainly 2 fests, i.e., Techspardha (the largest tech fest of North India) and the other is Confluence. During Techspardha, technical societies of our college conduct various events, and exciting prizes are there too. Cultural clubs handle Confluence; last time in Confluence, there was a star night in which Mohammed Irfan performed. This college is full of extracurricular activities and many things to explore, like photography, video editing, graphic designing, building websites, web apps, and many more things.

Faculty: All the faculty members are helpful here. They are well qualified and knowledgeable. But the use of an of an old-fashioned teaching style, which sometimes seems quite boring,. The course curriculum is moderately relevant. It includes thermodynamic machine design, kinetics of materials, and fluid mechanics, which helps a lot in understanding the mechanical applications. But it also has some topics that are irrelevant and outdated, like old engines. The difficulty level of semester exams is moderate. One can easily memorize the syllabus of a subject in 3–4 days.

Complete review of NIT Kurukshetra.

Placements: Almost 80 to 85% of students were placed in my college last year. I am currently a student in my 2nd year, so I have told you about last year's placement. As much as I know, the highest package is 62 lacs; the average package is 13 to 14 lacs, and the median package is 9 to 10 lacs. Also, our NIT Kurukshetra welcomes recruiting companies, such as Byju's, American Express, Tata, Mahindra, Microsoft, Samsung, Amazon, etc. Talking about the internship, almost 62-65% of students got it and shipped it to top companies, which I told you before. The top roles of food in this course are of software engineering management, etc.

Infrastructure: If I talk about the facilities and infrastructure in my college, it is decent. The facilities are not proper; the water coolers are old-fashioned, and the library is also very short. The library always remains crowded because it is made in a short area. But talking about the facilities in classrooms, it is nice the rooms are well ventilated, and also they are AC rooms. Talking about the qualities of facilities in my hostel, it is just decent. You will be provided a room in which there is only one fan and one table for study. The quality of the food in the mess is also balanced; it is not much good or bad, but I think the mess bill is very high as compared to my other friends bills studying in different colleges. The medical facilities, sports, and games are also good. There are proper medical facilities; if you need an ambulance, it will reach you anytime you call it.

Faculty: The teachers in my college are qualified and knowledgeable, but they are not helpful at all. They have a very scolding nature; they are also not very approachable. Their old-fashioned teaching is too boring that I saw sometimes my friends sleeping in the class. It also becomes very difficult to attend the lectures. Yes, I think the course curriculum is relevant as the administration has added them. No, I don't think it makes the students industry-ready, but they are also the backbone for the students to enter into the industry because you must have knowledge regarding the instruments present in the industry. No, my exams are not too difficult; actually, the Fortis hours hear the student things that they can correct the exam by studying one night before the exam. This is not true; due to this, it becomes difficult to pass. My class pass percentage is about 85 to 90%. It is not very difficult to pass.

Other: I choose this cost because I have always been fashionable in this field. From childhood, I have always been interested to know how this is made and what the parts are by which it is made, so I chose this course. I think there should be much focus on practical knowledge because it is the only thing that will work in the industry; practical knowledge is the key. Talking about the events, there are three events in our college: Utkarsh, Confluence, and Techsparda. Yeah, the conference is the most beautiful and exciting moment in my college. The campus is also lovers green; the connectivity is also there. The connectivity is mainly by LAN service, which is a wired connection. Talking about scholarships, I don't know much about it; I just know that if family income is greater than 5 lacs, then no one feels remission. Your family income is greater than 1 lac and less than 5 lacs; then 2/3 fees remission in tuition. Family income less than 100,000: 100% tuition fees remission.

Hey Vishwash, There are less chances for you to get ME in NIT KKR with this rank. The cut-off generally goes around 17k-18k. So, I don't think you can get mechanical here, but you can try for other branches such as Civil, Electrical, PIE. I hope it helps! Thank you
