There are many factors that have affected the reputation of NIT Patna for the worse
Earlier, NIT Patna had a very poor placement scenario and IT giants like Google and Amazon did not visit the campus. This affected the reputation severely. However, the situation has now improved and last year Amazon offered a package of INR 1.8 CPA, Meta offered a package of 1.6 LPA and Google offered a package of INR 1.1 CPA.
These were some of the reasons NIT Patna is underrated. It’s a very promising college that fails to attract the right lot. In fact, the professors in the ECE branch are among the 2% of world scientists.
