Here are a few drawbacks of NIT Jamshedpur that the ex-students talk about
So it can be concluded that most drawbacks of NIT Jamshedpur are being addressed and none of them hamper the academics to the point the institute's credibility needs to be questioned.
No, NIT Jamshedpur Mechanical is not better than NIT Rourkela Mechanical. NIT Rourkela is ranked higher than NIT Jamshedpur by all national rankings. It also is better than NIT Jamshedpur in terms of parameters like infrastructure, placements, Number of research papers published, faculty, etc.

However, both the institutes are the best in their respective, areas namely Jharkhand and Odisha.
The Mathematics department of NIT Jamshedpur offers premium education in the field of Mathematics. It provides several courses like
The department has around 12 highly qualified permanent faculty most of them being Ph.D. holders with a good knack for research knowledge. The faculty members are amicable and students can often be seen playing cricket with them on weekends.
A few courses covered under this program are
Introduction to Computer and Programming |

A few companies that have recruited MSc Maths Students of NIT Jamshedpur are Resonance, Career Point, Awanti Pvt., Axis Institute, Fiitjee, Arka Jain University, Rao IIT, Infosys, etc
All the three colleges are good. However, according to me, NIT JSR and BIT Mesra are better than NIT Agartala. For a core Engineering branch though, NIT JSR is a better choice over BIT Mesra. So your preference order for Civil should be NIT JSR> BIT Mesra> NIT Agartala.
Here are a few comparison points between NIT JSR and BIT Mesra to helTithi agp you choose between the two-
BIT Mesra is a better option for CSE. However, for a core branch, NIT JSR is a better choice. My brother chose Civil at NIT JSR over Civil at BIT Mesra and he did not regret his decision. Also, never choose an institution based off of NIRF rankings because they consider many factors, and many of them are irrelevant for you.
Congratulations on joining NIT Jamshedpur hostel! To ensure a comfortable stay, you will need to bring some essentials such as
I am also listing a few items that are available on campus but if you want to bring them from home to save money you can
Additionally, you can pack some non-perishable snacks, a few books, and some other personal items.
There are several things you should consider while comparing these branches.
During 2023 placements, 97.29% of students were placed in the Civil branch. Metallurgy students received 100% placements while production students received 97.61% placements.
The salary package stats for these branches are as described below-
Out of the three, Metallurgy has the highest placement percentage.
TATA Steel offers good placements to Metallurgy students of NIT Jamshedpur. Other than them, Vedanta, Jindal Steel, Hindalco, and Tata Metaliks are some other companies that offer placements to Metallurgy students of NIT Jamshedpur.
Metallurgy is a good choice for higher studies. Many students from this branch perform really well in GATE exams.
I recommend you consider joining Metallurgy at NIT Jamshedpur because it offers good future prospects. However, also talk to some seniors from the other branches before making a final decision.
To rise up to the level of top engineering institutes in India, NIT Jamshedpur needs to work on its infrastructure, faculty and research initiatives.
The college needs infrastructural development. The CSE labs should be well equipped with the latest hardware and software. The other labs are comparatively in a better position, but the CSE department labs need serious updates.
The college faculty lacks a research oriented temperament. This needs to change, so that research culture is promoted among the students. The right faculty will provide necessary research guidance to the students in various disciplines.
The college needs to take up industry sponsored research projects. By doing so, students will acquire the necessary exposure. Moreover, these industries will facilitate the improvement of research facilities at NIT Jamshedpur.
Despite the limitations of infrastructure and research facilities, the alumni of NIT Jamshedpur have successfully attained high positions in reputed firms over the years. This proves the caliber of the students of this institution.
If NIT Jamshedpur works on these areas, along with the ones mentioned in a previous answer, we can expect to see tremendous growth in this institution in the coming years.
Yes, it's true that the deteriorating infrastructure of NIT Jamshedpur is the main reason it's not famous enough. However, there are many other pros that overshadow this flaw which students often overlook while choosing their institute
Overall, the poor infrastructure can be overlooked if you focus on the positives of the institute.
One of my friends was a former student of this institute, and he was 2015 pass out batch. As per his advice, you would definitely face a difficult time getting success and fulfilling your dream if you opt for Production Engineering.
However, a small number of students get jobs in the core sector after studying this engineering stream. If you are satisfied with the jobs in IT companies, like Infosys, TCS and so on, you can go for this subject.
In the following, a brief overview has been given about the placement facts of this institute.
