No, there is no ragging happening at NIT Jamshedpur. I have one of my cousins study at NIT Jamshedpur. I can tell you the ragging scenario there.

Seniors of NIT Jamshedpur are very helpful. But you must not misbehave with your seniors. They only visit freshers class when there is some important information to convey.

As a fresher, you may face a little difficulty while sports meet. You have to be in the parade group if you are not participating in games seriously. It turns out to be tough for students who cannot get up early in the cold morning. Seniors will call you for exercising on a cold morning. However, sports practice should not skip as they are as important as your academics.

You can have fun with seniors without getting rude. It is okay to have fun with them. 

Therefore, you can join NIT Jamshedpur without any worries as no ragging has taken place till now.

NIT Jamshedpur, for any student, can be a good choice. However, it can be a good choice only if there is no further option left. In all the options that you have, the first try you should ever have is to enroll in IITs. On the other hand, if not IITs, then your second try should at least be for absolutely any tier-I NITs, such as the ones in the South. 

Although, when you run out of your choices between institutions like IITs and tier-I NITs, then choosing NIT Jamshedpur as your last option is not considered overall a very bad choice. 

NIT Jamshedpur is an institute that comes with brand value, which mainly is its USP. It is fundamentally well renowned across everyone for the CSE department, which has rather earned its name for being the most sought branch in the whole institution.

However, when speaking of the placement reports, it speaks otherwise. This means the overall placement record for almost all the branches in the institution is not highly praised. But, the improvement in the placement reports is somehow seen to climb the upper side recently. 

There are several companies, such as INTEL, and DELL that recently have approached the institution with propositions to provide students internship opportunities. It is rather good news for NIT Jamshedpur.

Companies like INTEl have recently been known to select 25 students from M.Tech for certain internship opportunities, among which 12 students already belong to the CSE specializations.

When it comes down to whether or not a decision affects your placement, it, first of all, depends on how you have prepared and put effort into your studies. If you have not put much effort into your studies and have rather studied in an unresponsive and impassive manner, then a bulk of companies actually rejecting you is more obvious.

If you want to pursue your goal and more often than not, have prepared to not let any individual material affect you, then these are ways you can aim with:

1. Aim for your Academia: You should have a checklist of several professors from various other universities who can lend a hand in providing you research-oriented topics to further work on during your summer breaks. This is one way by which you can aim at greater selection, only if you stand out in the project.
2. Aim for a Lucrative Job: You should always aim to participate in different algorithmic contests and contribute to your open source. It will help build a reputation and can gain you exposure in the industrial side. It also will help see the capability to sit through various contests or examinations and stand out with solving numerous demanding questions. This is another way recruiters will find you as a great asset to their company.

Other than that, you can always go up for management and courses other than the one stated above. It however depends completely on you.

The placement records for Civil Engineering in NIT Jamshedpur are not considered to be the best. 

• One of the primary reasons behind this is the lesser number of companies actually approaching any Civil Engineers at the end of the day. 
• Nearly 60% of the students who are pursuing civil engineering get placed. At the same time, the opportunities that other branches receive regarding their placements can be heightened up to 90%.
• Most of the civil engineers approach in opting for GATE preparations and later in their lives, go up to securing government jobs. 
• There are students who primarily did not take Civil engineering in their years of study and instead chose to opt for Metallurgy in the same institute they are in.

Civil engineering has an average placement of almost 60-70% in most of the NITs. It is somewhat similar in NIT Jamshedpur too since overall, it is not deeply bad. But, at the same time, it is not particularly good as well. Your placement also partially depends on your CGPA too. 

L&T alone visits the campus of NIT Jamshedpur every single year and selects 15 -20 students in an approximate count. So you have several other options open for you via GATE OR IES.

The details about the food facilities in NIT Jamshedpur are as mentioned below.

Mess Food Facilities

• The quality of the mess food is average and is not the best. However, the provision of good food increases as you become a senior in the department. 
• The mess provides non-vegetarian food items five times a week. At the same time, vegetarian food items are not quite as good as non-vegetarian items. 
• The best meal, however, in the mess is its breakfast. 
• The current mess rate is Rs.15000 per semester. 
• The students who are residing in the Mega hostel have their meals in other hostels' mess. It is because the Mega mess is not functional at present, which mainly is a problematic scenario. 

Canteen Food Facilities

• The food of the canteen area provides a wide range of items as it is a newly developed area. It can be anything from espresso coffee to special “thali”. 
• If you possibly can, then have a brief glimpse at their menu card when you visit the canteen.

Private owners

• There are several private restaurant owners as well. The one among many, as also acclaimed by numerous students, is a hotel named Pradeep Restaurant on the campus which provides decent food items.
• Gupta hotel is another place where you can possibly obtain non-vegetarian food items at comparatively low prices.
• Sudha store, Shyam da, and NIT store are various other food hotspots for students in the campus. The Amul store is just another decent shop where you can find some of the amul products you would love to eat as well.

These are the several food facilities you will acquire in and outside of the campus.
