A journey through NITK.
Placements: In my batch, there were about 110 students in my department. Around 80-85% were placed, and the rest went on to pursue higher education. The highest salary package was around 40 LPA, and the average package was around 8-10 LPA. Top companies like Samsung, Qualcomm, Amazon, and Flipkart recruited students from our batch. However, fewer students were selected for internships than for placements, with each company taking fewer than 10 interns.
Infrastructure: NITK has good infrastructure, including clean hostels, a well-equipped library, and good labs. The classrooms are spacious, and some have a beach view. The food is good, and we can choose between a vegetarian or non-vegetarian mess. The college has most sports facilities, including two playgrounds.
Faculty: The faculty are highly skilled, qualified, and knowledgeable. The course curriculum is relevant if we work in the core sector according to our chosen graduation department. The semester exams are usually moderate to tough, but the pass percentage is high.
Other: I chose this course because I was told that it would help me enter either the hardware or software field. The course is already the best, and I don't think anything needs to be improved. However, the subjects in a few semesters need to be adjusted properly to avoid overloading students. There are many events throughout the year, including two big festivals: one for cultural events and the other for engineering and technology. There are also many sports festivals and other events. The campus is near the beach and close to many tourist destinations. Scholarships are available to eligible students. All kinds of extracurricular activities, such as sports and dance, are available.

A look into NITK - great place to study and have fun.
Placements: Around 85% of the students were placed, with around 6% going for Masters. The highest package was 64 LPA and the lowest was 6 LPA. Top companies that recruit are Amazon, AWS, Google, Microsoft, Oracle, Qualcomm, Nvidia, DeShaw, Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, etc.
Infrastructure: Hostels are separate for boys and girls. Girls hostel has newer blocks and is very good. A little bit of an issue with Wi-Fi and internet at times, but usually it's good. The college has a reading room, gym, basketball court, and a lot of open space to walk around.
Faculty: As ECE is not present in top IITs, the best professors specialising in this field come to NITK. The course curriculum is very good, and the labs are very helpful. Teachers are friendly and provide good projects and guidance. Teaching is also very helpful for core ECE placements.
Other: This is the only university campus with a private each, and the each is very clean and well maintained. Lighthouse is also there. We have 2 huge fests every year—one cultural and one technical. Apart from that, we have multiple events throughout the year, almost every week. Amazing place to study and have fun.

Overall, our college provides a conducive environment for professional development.
Placements: About 98 percent of the students got placed from our course, with average salaries ranging from 8 LPA to 34 LPA. Big companies like Texas Instruments, Nvidia, Qualcolmm, ARM, and Samsung Semiconductor India to name a few are the top recruiting companies for our course. About 30 percent including M. Teach studnets secured internship in these companies. Most of them were hire as Hardware or Digital Design Engineers.
Infrastructure: Our department benefits from robust LAN supplies and excellent labs. Although the classrooms are obsolete, they are sufficient to accommodate a batch. There are two libraries on the campus. The hostels are somewhat old in structure, and all the hostels have their own night canteens. There is a Central Health Care Centre on the campus for anytime emergencies, equipped with an ambulance. We have a large playground on our campus and inter NIT championship are held each year.
Faculty: Some teachers are well-qualified and knowledgeable. Talking of myself, I personally faced a lot of difficulties because the teaching pedagogy is not good here. The course curriculum was indeed relevant for the hiring companies. The focus area in the college is more on theory for some faculty members, but some emphasis the implementation of the theory.

Last year the highest package is 57 Lacs per annum of college but mine branch is that is of ECE is 45 Lacs per annum students get placed in core as well as non core companies both, average package is 23 Lacs of ECE branch overall college average is 20 Lacs. The lowest is 6 Lacs per annum. Almost 80 percent students get internships every year. Top recruiting companies are Amazon, Texas instruments, Qualcomm, Airtel, Jio, Samsung, Microsoft, Bajaj and many more companies.
Infrastructure: In first year students are allotted triple sharing rooms with separate B.Ed but from this year double sharing rooms are also allotted on the basis of first come first serve. Classrooms and labs and whole campus are covered by wi-fi. Labs are well-equipped with all instruments. There are two library one is old ones that is Central library and other one is newly built that is E-library. Mess food is quiet acceptable and night canteens are also available in the campus and also all sports facilities are also available in the campus.
Faculty: Yes all professors are highly qualified and most of them are from top NITs and IITs itself. Teaching quality is good. This course is highly relevant to communications and telecommunication industry and make students ready for that. It is not too difficult to pass the semester exam if you are only regular to the class but you have to maintain the 75 percent attendance criteria of the college. Passing percentage is almost 20 to 25 in every subject.
