What is the average package in NIT Raipur for Mechanical engineering?

GH
Gagan Harjai Posted On : March 31st, 2021
Studied Computer Science and Engineering at National Institute of Technology, Raipur (2021)

As far as the placement reports say, placement for mechanical engineering in NIT Raipur varies in between 70%-80%. Although the placements are not as high as IT/CSE branch when compared with mechanical engineering. But yes, there is a most essential perk of job security in the mechanical engineering branch which most of today’s software companies and startups lack.

Now moving from core to non-core campus visitors in the fields of Software & Analytics for all the branches, the package offered is usually very low around 3.5–5 LPA.

  • The automobile companies like Maruti Suzuki India Limited, Tata Motors, and Fiatwhich visit NIT Raipur for campus placements all give packages more or less between 5.5–6 LPA.
  • Vedanta Resources do provide a better package than automobiles but their package includes a large amount of variable pay which depends on individual as well as company performance.
  • So in the long run they are paid more or less the same as automobile placed people get.
  • PSUs like Coal India Limited, Bharat Petroleum Corporation Limited (BPCL), Hindustan Petroleum Corporation Limited (HPCL) which visit NIT Raipur are among those few ones who actually increase the average by providing a very good pay scale of 10–12 LPA.

Some companies like BPCL AND HPCL have strict rules of allowing only topper of some branches to appear for the placements. Whereas Coal India does not have vacancies for mechanical every year.

Though, the job openings for Mechanical Engineers are always there. This is a reason why Mechanical is called an evergreen branch. Moreover, placements everywhere on the country’s economic situation.

Don't go for placement packages, it may disappoint you. Just keep a good CPI and be conceptually strong, you will surely end up in good companies like Tata and Maruti.

My rank in the JEE mains is 50000. Should I go for the chemical branch in NIT Raipur?

AM
Aditya Mishra Posted On : September 9th, 2023
B.Tech from National Institute of Technology, Raipur

Yes, you can go for the Chemical branch at NIT Raipur unless you get selected for a better NIT till the last round. Even if you aren’t interested in Chemical Engineering, you need not worry as NIT Raipur has a branch change policy that lets you upgrade your branch to a better one after one year. You need a good CGPA and enough vacant Seeta in the desired branch to make this possible. Many of my friends at NIT Raipur have upgraded their branches from chemical to IT, Electrical, and Civil. 

Usually, the students of this branch are hired by mass recruiters. These companies offer jobs in various fields in case you don’t want to continue working in the Chemical field. Last year, the Chemical Engineering branch received 54 offers and the total number of students eligible for placements was 55. 

In all, NIT Raipur is a decent choice given its high-paced development rate.

How good is NIT Raipur CSE? Is it better than NIT Jamshedpur or Durgapur?

AR
Aditi Roy Posted On : April 26th, 2023
lives in Gwalior, Madhya Pradesh, India

When it comes to choosing between NIT Jamshedpur, NIT Raipur, and NIT Durgapur, it's important to consider various factors, including placements, reputation, and career prospects. While each of these institutions has its own strengths and weaknesses, you need to determine which one aligns with your goals and interests.

Here are some points to consider when making your decision:

  1. Placements: One of the main reasons for pursuing an engineering degree is to secure a good job after graduation. NIT Jamshedpur has a slight edge over NIT Raipur and NIT Durgapur when it comes to placements. However, it's important to note that your skills and performance during the recruitment process will ultimately determine your chances of getting a job.
  2. Reputation: The reputation of an institute is built over the years by its alumni base. NIT Raipur's CSE program is relatively new, so it may take some time to establish a solid reputation. On the other hand, NIT Jamshedpur and NIT Durgapur have been around for several decades and have a proven track record of producing successful engineers.
  3. Skills and Learning: While choosing an institute with a good placement record is important, it's equally important to focus on developing your skills and enthusiasm to learn and compete. The IT industry demands only skills, and it's up to you to put in the effort to become a competent engineer. Additionally, it's worth noting that while brand names like IIT may give you a slight edge over NIT in the job market, ultimately, your skills and experience will matter more.

In conclusion, choosing between NIT Jamshedpur, NIT Raipur, and NIT Durgapur requires careful consideration of various factors. While NIT Jamshedpur may have a slight edge in terms of placements, it's important to focus on developing your skills and enthusiasm for learning and competing. Ultimately, your hard work and dedication will be the key to building a successful career in the IT industry.

How is Mining Engineering at NIT Raipur? What can I expect my starting package to be (roughly)?

Satyam Purwar Posted On : September 12th, 2023

NIT Raipur Mining Engineering is one of the best in the country. However, the prospects are very challenging so you will have to work hard to excel in this field. If you are confused about any branch, go through its strengths and weaknesses. For instance, a mining engineer gets paid handsomely but his working conditions are very challenging and may even affect his health. 

Generally, the placement scenario of branches like CSE, IT, and mining is very good. Last year 62 offers were made to 70 eligible students. I asked my friend for the detailed statistics and here is what he shared 

  • The maximum salary package offered was 55 LPA.
  • The minimum salary package offered ranges between 15 LPA - 25 LPA. 
  • Around 85% of students got placed in various tech and non-tech companies. 
  • Top recruiting companies are Vedantu, Adani, JSW, and Tata Steel. 
  • About 40% of students got internships in non-core companies.

Overall, the mining engineering branch is a good choice if you are genuinely interested in the field.

DN
Debarati Nag Posted On : May 15th, 2021
Studied at Indian Institute of Engineering Science and Technology, Shibpur (2019)

IIEST Shibpur is an excellent institute for courses in engineering, especially civil engineering. It is a well-established and well-known branch. There are several advantages of being in IIEST Shibpur and having a degree from the institute.

My brother has studied there and the points below are his experience at the institute: 

  • There are excellent faculties in the Civil engineering department, except a couple of faculties who are not that great as evident from student reviews.
  • There are innumerous projects and researches going on in the Civil engineering department at IIEST. The teachers and lecturers are excellent in their guidance for students interested in project works and show a lot of enthusiasm in the same.
  • Above all, IIEST has gained central status a few years back, which ensures the development in research and teaching methodologies even further with time.

Therefore, Civil engineering at IIEST is definitely a great choice for students, maybe even better than NIT Raipur in certain areas.

Why is NIT Raipur considered average?

AM
Arpit Mukherjee Posted On : September 9th, 2023
Studied at National Institute of Technology, Raipur

It's true that NIT Raipur was considered an average NIT but the current scenario begs to differ given the fast-paced growth it has witnessed over the past few years. Its infrastructure has improved for the better and more changes are on the way. The campus has also improved in terms of facilities, environment, and convenience. The laboratories are now equipped with better instruments and all obsolete ones have been discarded. NIT Raipur also has one of the largest libraries amongst all the NITs and the largest digital library even better than some IITs and NITs. 

Addressing the elephant in the room, the placements too are commendable. Big IT shots like Amazon, Oracle, Samsung, UHG, and others visit the campus and offer decent packages. Last year, NIT Raipur's average package stood at INR 10.1 LPA. The maximum number of offers were received by the IT and Mechanical students. Out of 101 recruiters, the top ones included Wipro, Capgemini, Infosys, Adobe, Aditya Birla Group, etc. Additionally, students from NIT Raipur bag excellent ranks every year in GATE, GRE, CAT, etc.

In a nutshell, I dont NIT Raipur is in any way average. In fact, it's one of the best engineering colleges in India.
