Extremely satisfied because of faculty, good placements in 2022, 2023, and 2024.

According to me, it's an NIT college, so students gain good knowledge.
Placements: Around 80%-85% of students are placed in our course. The highest salary package in our college is 45 LPA, the average salary package is 14 LPA, and the lowest salary package is 6 LPA. Aditya Birla, Tata, PhonePe, and more companies are recruiting for our course. Every student gets an internship in the 2nd or 3rd year after hard work. There is a placement coordinator.
Infrastructure: Facilities available in our hostel include Wi-Fi, drinking water, light, fans, and beds. Fully air-conditioned classrooms are available in our college. A central library is also available on our campus, and books can be issued by students. The quality of food in the mess is average. There are three canteens available on our campus, and the fast food is good. We have a small ground to play different sports like volleyball, football, and cricket. However, only one sport (either cricket or football) can be played at a time. We also have a badminton court, table tennis, and music facilities.
Faculty: Teachers are helpful in studies and projects. They are qualified and very knowledgeable. We are comfortable studying with them. According to me, the course curriculum is relevant. It prepares us to manage future tasks. The mid-semester exam is good because teachers ask questions based on what they taught in class. The end-semester exam has not been conducted yet. The pass percentage is 33% of the total marks.
Other: I chose this course because it lies within my rank. The best thing about my course is that it is an evergreen branch. I wish the course could be improved in the first year. There are a few events and fests conducted, like Natvansh and Bollywood. Our campus is very small, covering 36 acres. Connectivity is good because the station is 4 km away, and the airport is 10 km away. It is a high-density city. Scholarships are available for students.

Take a glimpse of NIT Patna.
Placements: More than 90% of placements were achieved in the year 2022. The lowest package offered was 3.6 LPA, and the highest was for 2.1 crores for TCS and Facebook respectively (also Google). The average for civil varied between 7-10 LPA. L&T, UltraTech, Birlas, and others were the most prominent companies among these. At least 50% of students got an internship + FTE at Larsen and Toubro, UltraTech, Adani Power, Afcons Infrastructure, and others.
Faculty: Professors from the institute have a very good command over their respective subjects, as they also promoted research in the institute. Well-qualified professionals teaching their subjects well and sharing their experience with the academics made us learn a lot of things from them. The knowledge they provide in the classrooms, they make you implement the same in the laboratories. It was very much useful for us to learn and remember the things, and when we started working after placement, nothing went new that we wouldn't know then. We have internal and external, viva and exams. For each semester, we need to qualify for both, but in your final mark sheet, as external marks, both internal and external are displayed. They are quite easy to moderate range. The way the course is designed by the faculty members is really good.
Other: It makes you familiar with the real life around you. Working in the infrastructure and construction field makes you feel the better of you. One thing that could have been improved was the timings for the classes and breaks. There are a number of events, fests, and other activities happening in the institute, like we had a freshers party, Eccentrica, and intramurals for sports. So many clubs are helping the poor outside the campus, like Sankalp used to provide free education for 12th-class students for free.

Data for internship percentage is not shared by college but as per our seniors, very few students got internships, about 30-40%. Roles offered were IT Digital / Analytics, SDE Intern, Graduate Engineer Trainee, Business Analyst / Digital Analyst, etc.
Infrastructure: WiFi is extremely slow. Hostels are overcrowded. Labs are good. Classes are pathetic with no facilities and in many classes most of the fans don't work. The library is very small but good. Fixed mess menu with no scope of change and there is no mess council or student council. Food is good in the mess. The canteen is also good but there is no night canteen. There is a doctor available 24/7 for your treatment free of charge. There is only one ground where we play cricket, football, badminton, volleyball, and court is also there.
Faculty: Teachers are helpful, qualified, and knowledgeable, but you won't understand anything. YouTube will be your only companion for 4 years. The curriculum is absolutely relevant and is industry-oriented. Semester exams are doable if you work hard studying the topics; otherwise, it might be tough.
Other: I didn't choose this course; rather, this college and course chose me. The crowd is just pathetic. Every branch is heavily crowded and very few good and dedicated students are around.
