Very good placements, nice campus life, nice faculty, infrastructure needed to be renovated, etc.

Placements: In our college, around 75% of students are placed in college. The highest salary package offered is 52.89 LPA and the average salary package offered is 13.34 LPA. Top recruitment companies in our college are Google, Microsoft, amazon, etc. Cons of our college are very less students got an internship.

Infrastructure: Facilities in our college of Wi-Fi, labs are below average. Wi-Fi speed in our hostel is very low and sometimes it cuts off. Classrooms are also below average and non-air conditioned classrooms. Mess food is very bad for first year and decent scope for sports, games, and medical fitness.

Faculty: Course curriculum is very old, so It needed to be renovated. But, teachers are very helpful, and they also mentorship us in positive way. Teachers are well-qualified and knowledgeable. In this college, exams are uneven and it anytime can happen so it becomes hectic. College has pointer system.

Other: I need computer science course that is why I chose this college and computer science line is aggressively growing line. Teaching the real-world things about our course is needed to our course. Events, fests, campus crowds, connectivity, and all things are very nice.

It is the genuine review of NIT Silchar.

Placements: Placements of my college are really very good. The percentage of placement is 95% around and package of all branches is very good in the CSC branch. The highest salary package offered is 82 LPA and the average salary package offered is 24 LPA. Whereas the average salary package of ECE branch is 18 LPA non which is very good. Student gets intensive in second year third year as well which is paid internship. Students got placed in many companies like Google, Microsoft, Apple Infosys, and many famous companies overall placements of my college are excellent.

Infrastructure: Basically, in my hostel facilities are all available. All important things are available like Wi-Fi, LAN ports, and 24 24-hour electricity table. Cleaning facilities are very good and every two days. Clean up the corridors which I found very appreciable. But I don't like the quality of food because I belong to other states. So prefer more to non vegeterian or they make some vegetables which I don't like very low spice and vegetables. That is one thing I don't like.

Faculty: Teachers are really very good. They help us how to handle things, how to study how to manage time. They also gave us their number and said that we could ask them about anything related to curriculum whenever we need to, which I like the most. Even in the classroom. Classrooms are really very clean but for first year classrooms are not that good. But first third year student is well developed and clean. There are no air conditioners in the classrooms.

Review of NIT Silchar College.

Placements: In NIT Silchar, placement opportunities are decent. This year, the average placement offered in electrical engineering was around 12 LPA CTC, and the highest package offered was around 52 LPA. Companies like Amazon, Paytm, HCl, Byju's, Microsoft, etc. This college is good for the IT sector and decent for core branches in terms of placement.

Infrastructure: Infrastructure is not so good in NIT Silchar. Some newly made buildings like New Gallery, Library, and the admin building are good, including some newly made hostels like Aryabhatta (for 1st years) and BH9. But most of the infrastructure is outdated as NIT Silchar is an old institute started from 1967.

Faculty: Faculty are not so good, especially in my branch electrical engineering. But some faculty members of other branches are good and friendly. Curriculum is good, it's not too hectic. In exam time, you may feel pressure due to a lot of exams like mid-sem, minor test, endsem, assignments, etc.

NIT Silchar - National Institute of Technology review.

Placements: The average starting package is around INR 65,000. One of our seniors, a fourth-year student who interned at Microsoft and got a great offer.

Infrastructure: The hostel is located in a very good area, and the infrastructure is quite decent and amazing. However, the problem is that the cleaning activities are not done on a regular or frequent basis. The college has quite a few labs, including computer labs, chemistry labs, and a mechanical workshop.

Faculty: The faculty at NIT Silchar are well-educated and very well-behaved towards the students. They take the time to understand our thoughts and opinions. However, some faculty members are not receptive to student input and tend to shout at the students.

The college is good with its friendly atmosphere and scenery.

Placements: Placements are based on the individual talent of the person. Placement cannot be decided by the branch of the person. Placements are good in the college. The overall placement of the year 2023 is 89.41%. The median package offered in NIT is 12.61 LPA.

Infrastructure: A sports complex, cricket ground, and football ground are present in the college. Hostels are provided based on the JEE Main rank and sometimes on the semester grade points, which are finally divided by the year you are studying at that time. The classrooms were good.

Faculty: Our faculty is nice, and they will teach lessons in English as per the students' choice. The difficulty level in the semester exams is based on the paper made by the faculty. The exams include mid-sem exams, minor tests, and end-sem exams, and others will be taken as attendance, class tests, or notes or assignments.

Other: Two fests will be held in an annual year in which one is a technical fest, and the other is the cultural fest. The surroundings in the college are greenery as we look around.
