How are the placement of electrical engineering in NIT Rourkela?

NIT Rourkela's average package of Electrical Engineering 2023 was recorded at INR 14.55 LPA. Moreover, the quality and number of recruiters are also great given the fact that it's one of the top NITs. However, core jobs are only a handful and not at par with IT jobs. Usually, the toppers of the electrical engineering branch secure jobs in the limited core companies that visit for placements.

NIT Rourkela Electrical Engineering is the perfect choice for those looking for a government job preferably in PSUs. PSUs give a lot of preference to Electrical Engineers especially from NIT Rourkela since most of their work involves the core engineering branches. 

I asked a friend in NIT Rourkela regarding the current placement scenario of the EE branch. As per the information he shared, almost 92% of the student got placed in 2022. Top recruiting companies are Microsoft, Qualcomm, Oracle, Adobe, Wipro, Citi Bank, and SAP Labs. The highest CTC recorded was 55 LPA, while the average package was 11-12 LPA.

In all, placements in the electrical engineering branch of NIT Rourkela are great with immense opportunities in software roles, electrical and electronics roles, and analytical roles.
