Is NIT Silchar a tier 2 institute?

NIT Silchar is ranked 40th for Engineering and 83rd for overall performance by the NIRF 2023 Rankings. It is a tier 2 institute. 

However, NIT Silchar carries the prestigious ‘NIT’ tag. Its worth shouldn’t be underestimated simply because it is located in a lesser-known city. It is in fact one of the oldest NITs and has one of the largest digital libraries in South Asia. It covers an area of 680 acres and has good academic and research facilities. The faculty is quite good and the placements are also increasing year on year. Top companies like Microsoft, Directi, Sap Labs, Oracle, Oil India Corporation, Power Grid, Bharat Electronics Limited, etc. visit the campus for placements.

Thus, NIT Silchar is a good choice to pursue your Engineering studies.
