National Institute of Technology - [NITK], Surathkal - Reviews

NITK Surathkal is a blend of everything, you will get all types of experiences here. The faculty is experienced and dynamic, your peers are also brilliant and competitive. Students take admission at NITK upon being rejected admission by IITs, BHU, and ISM. Local people around the campus are educated, friendly, and ready to help. 

• The annual cultural fest, "Incident" is one of the best parts of the college experience where a foreign band and a Bollywood star are invited. 

• The campus is large with all the basic facilities like water and electricity. Mess is available, and in case you don't like mess food, you have food points and canteens on the campus. You can even place food orders on Zomato or Swiggy. 

• The alumni network is pretty good, you build connections and even have a lot of enjoyment.

• Various cultural and technical clubs are present which regularly conduct workshops and activities engaging students. The film club screens a film every week. 

Now coming to the main criteria, that is education which is one of the best in India. The Professors and seniors are always helping and encouraging at every step.

• In spite of having a high quality of faculty, education, co-curricular, alumni network, infrastructure, research work, and what not, NITK does not rank best among the other NITs. 
• NITK is an autonomous institute and can design its curriculum itself, but there has not been any major considerable improvement yet. 
• The passing marks have been brought down to just 20% whereas, in most other engineering colleges, the passing percentage is at least 50%. 

These are a few of the aspects that have less to not so good ranking of NITK Surathkal among the top engineering colleges of India.
