    NIT Rourkela Review 2024.
    Placements: All of the students who applied were placed in my batch, as I am from M.Sc. so most of the students opt for Ph.D. instead of placements. We had to do a 2-month internship and it's mandatory so everyone got internships in companies and IITs. The top role is most Ph.D. in prestigious institutions in India.
    Infrastructure: The hostels, facilities, and infrastructure are top-notch. Every room has its own LAN connection; hence, the network is very fast. The mess is also good but it depends on the caterers. If they change the caterers, then we might be lucky and get good food, and vice versa .
    Faculty: The teachers were somewhat helpful to us regarding our projects and courses. The teaching is somewhat relevant but self-study is also needed, as it would be useless if we fully depended on the teachers. The only courses that I found difficult were QM-1, QM-2 and Nuclear Physics. The pass percentage is always 100%.
    Other: The extracurricular activities are good. A swimming pool, a tennis court, a football field, and lots of indoor games. A gym is present in every hostel and there's a central gym as well for everyone to enjoy. There are festivals every semester and I had fun during that time.

    There are good placements for core branches. Our institute is mainly focused on the research part. 
    Placements: Placements in our college are average for M.Sc. and Maths students, but it is much better than other NITs, except NIT Warangal. There are a lot of coaching institutes for M.Sc., students and some IT sectors will allow them to sit in placements. The average salary package is about 4.5 LPA and the company bond is approximately 1 year. M.Sc. students can also apply to other IT companies as well. But the majority of the students pursue research careers after their M.Sc. from NIT Rourkela. But some of the students who don't want to make a career in research will go for placements.
    Infrastructure: The facilities in our hostels at NIT Rourkela are really good. I am studying here for one year. There are 8 boys' hostels and 2 girls' hostels, and for me, those hostels are comparable to any IIT Hostels. Our hostels are mostly clean, and most of the bathrooms are cleaned three times per day. Every hostel has some water filters with a water cooler. Every hostel has its own mess. Messes are neat and clean, and the food served is also good in both quality and quantity. Every hostel has its own night canteen where you can get various kinds of food, drinks, etc. All hostels have their own garden, and it looks really nice. Every hostel has its own gym too.
    Faculty: The attendance system is a little strict. The professors in my branch are very good. They are always there to help us with our problems (academic as well as non-academic). You will get good marks if you write well and to the point. The classes will be a little hectic, which is the major concern of all students. But the evening life is lively. You can enjoy yourself with your friends at the small restaurants present inside the campus. You can have a good evening walk as the campus is large enough.

Students got jobs of IIT and JEE faculty members, also in IT companies of data analyst and many other roles. It depends on the students, but everything is overall good.
    Infrastructure: Wi-Fi is available, and the classrooms and library are good. Everything on the campus is good. We also have Biju Patnaik library, which is quite good. Labs are good, but sometimes computers are not working. In hostel day/night canteens are there, and the food served is fine in the mess. Medical facilities are also very good, and sports are awesome.
    Faculty: Faculty members in our college are helpful and are PhD holders. They are perfect in their field and are knowledgeable. People here are interested in joining our college because the teaching is good, but only a few talent students get that opportunity to join here.

    Other: I opted for this course because I like mathematics. I would rate the college as 4.8.
