NIT Surathkal has better placements for MTech. According to the recent placement highlights, the highest CTC and average CTC offered were INR 28 LPA and INR 12.25 LPA, respectively. Companies such as L&T Infotech, Standard Chartered Bank, ZS Associates, Capgemini, Tredence Analytics, Exl Service, etc. are the major recruiters that take part in NIT Surathkal placements.
One of my friends pursued BTech Civil Engineering from NIT Warangal. NITW was reported to be one of the best for Civil Engineering among all the NITs and IITs in India by most of the students. Thus it can be said that Civil engineering at NIT Warangal is better than NIT Surathkal.
Here are some of the observations about NIT Warangal that you should know.
If you want to opt for Civil engineering then you should go for NIT Warangal as this is one of the best colleges for Civil.
I have a friend who completed a dual degree in Economics from BITS Goa and he vouches for the course. Economics in BITS Goa is actually a brilliant department. Also, if you wish to do an MBA in the future an economics degree can prove to be very useful. Apart from this the Economics department also has some brilliant professors and they offer some very good electives like Security Analysis and Portfolio Management and Financial Management.
Now, here are a few cons regarding both colleges.
BITS Goa:
NIT Surathkal:
It often is the case that students of 12th standard are clueless about their field of interest after finishing their studies. Being in a dual program, you get an extra year to decide on your field(subject) of interest
You should not be expecting placements for an M.Tech from NIT Surathkal. The scenario is quite different for the CS/IT background students.
Categories | M.Tech in Mechanical Engineering at NIT Surathkal |
Course Fee | 1.29 lakhs |
Course Duration | 2 years |
Highest CTC | 14-15 LPA |
Average CTC | 7 LPA |
The placement is really good in NIT Surathkal. Many top companies participate in the placement program. These companies include Microsoft, Google, Tech Mahindra, IBM, TCS, Capgemini, Accenture, Wipro, Mindtree, Infosys, etc.
Few of my friends study in NSIT COE, who have left top NITs and CSE programs for NSIT COE.
In the following table, you will get the basic information about NSIT CSE, NIT Surathkal IT branch, and MNNIT Allahabad CSE.

The following points will give you a more clear picture of the institutes:
Therefore, if you are thinking of joining the Netaji Subhas University of Technology then go for it. As there are several advantages of joining the NSIT COE branch. Also, in the long run, your skills matter, not from which college you have studied.
The answer to this question depends on how you can cope with zealous competition after joining college. If you are confident that you can join the brawl and top in your first year, I would highly recommend taking MSc in Economics at BITS Goa Pilani.
ProsIf you do not want to take a risk, choosing IT at NIT Surathkal is the best option for you. Since the syllabus almost corresponds to that of CSE and the infrastructure is mind-blowing at the campus.
NIT Surathkal IT is far superior to NIT Calicut. It is well-known in India for its CSE/IT branches. It is a highly regarded engineering college in India, and after four years of B.Tech college, the specific branch does not matter.
NITK outperforms Calicut in terms of reputation and placements. Furthermore, because of the higher cutoffs, the quality of students may be slightly higher here.
IT at NITK is nearly equivalent to CSE here. During placements, nearly all companies open to CS are open for IT as well.
Categories | IT at NITK | CSE at NITC |
Course fee | 5.40 lakhs | 5.42 lakhs |
Placement rate | 92% | 85% |
Average salary package | 8 LPA | 8.1 LPA |
Highest salary package | 35 LPA | 36 LPA |
The subjects taught and the syllabus in both departments are also similar. In fact, the IT department may be slightly better than the CS department in terms of facilities and infrastructure, as it is newer. Previously, the quality of students in CS was higher than in IT, but with significant increases in IT cutoffs, both are now equally good.
Department of Mathematics runs the course of M.Tech in Computational Mathematics in NIT Surathkal. So, CMA students are not eligible to appear for a few companies' campus placement.

Therefore, the placement of an M.Tech in computational mathematics at NIT Surathkal is pretty good. If you are thinking of joining NIT Surathkal then you must go for it.
Yes, it is a tier 1 college. NIT Surathkal ranking is 10 for B.Tech as per NIRF 2021. The Week 2021 ranked the institute 11 overall.
Other than NIT K, the other tier 1 engineering colleges in India are IIT B, IIT K, IIT KGP, IIT D, IIT M, IIT BHU, IIT HYD, NITT, NITW, and IIIT HYD.
One of my friends studying at NIT Surathkal has provided the information about the college timings. As he is a BTech 1st year student he is only able to share his particular timetable. Though there might not be vast differences.
Therefore, the National Institute of Technology Surathkal schedule is not that hectic. Students easily manage their own time table between the lectures.
