As you scored 53% and you belong to SC background you can get admission in any of the colleges. But it is difficult for getting admission into NITs and IITs. as per new rule , the new eligibility criteria for getting admission in NIT is having minimum 75% in board 12th exam and the merit of this year is expected above 150 marks in JEE; for General students.For SC/ST candidates, the eligibility criteria is 65% marks in class 12th.

Hi,
When its about B.tech in any stream NIT Rourkela comes out to be the best.When you say about Ceramic Engineering in NIT Rourkela and look upon the past records , you would not be much satisfied. But with the changing scenario, Ceramic engineering is doing pretty well and its demand is also increasing day by day.
Although there was a time when placements in department of ceramic engineering was inappropriate, but now with time and changing scenario, number of core companies like Vedanta, TRL, OCL etc. visit NIT Rourkela to recruit. Also there is the provision for every department students to sit for companies from IT sector(TCS, IBM etc. ) as well as analytics(Affine, ZS Associates etc). So overall placements in Ceramic engineering is quite good.
As the number of Ceramic Engineers is quite less than other Streams, So if you are talented enough you will definitely grab a job while leaving NIT.
The students are getting an average package of 7-8 LPA , it increases eventually.
Students are also doing pretty well in GATE.
Hence the branch is doing well and its demand is increasing day by day.
All the best for future.
