NIT Puducherry Reviews & Ratings 2026 – Authentic Student Feedback

Admission: The teachers are helpful, but some are better than others. The course material is good, but lots of students don't like using textbooks because the library doesn't have enough. The exams in the first and second year are super easy  just study the book a few days before and you'll be fine.

Placement: The placements in CSE are pretty good, but they could be better compared to other colleges. The good news is that placements are getting better every year. The highest package is 40 LPA through off-campus placements, and around 22 LPA for on-campus placements. If you have a decent CGPA and some practical knowledge, you can easily snag a 15 LPA offer. In the IT sector, you can get roles like programmer, software developer, back-end or front-end developer based on your coding and subject skills.

Campus: The college is still being built, so there's not a lot to do yet. The water here isn't great - it looks yellow and makes your hair fall out and skin tan. There's no sports area or good grounds. The Wi-Fi is super slow and the library doesn't have enough books. It's pretty small overall.

Admission: The teachers at this college really know their stuff. They're experts in their subjects. The teaching is good too. The courses get you ready for the real world. They even organize hackathons and coding events. Exams aren't too tough either.

Placement: The placements for computer science at NIT are pretty good. About half of the students in this course get placed, which is awesome. The average package is between 4 to 7 LPA. Some of the top companies that come for placements are TCS, Infosys, Amazon, Wipro, Accenture, Oracle, and Cisco.

Campus: The computer Science course at NIT Puducherry has great infrastructure. We had computer labs for programming and a library with all kinds of books on campus. The college also provided Wi-Fi, hostel, canteen, and other facilities. And there were plenty of sports facilities for us students too.

Admission: The teachers at our college know their stuff, they've been doing it for over 14 years. They teach well and the stuff we learn is practical for getting a job. The exams are tough, but most of us pass with an 84% rate.

Placement: The job placements at our NIT are awesome for every course. Almost all students get placed, like 98% of us! We land jobs in top companies like KPMG and Paytm. The highest salary offered is 37 LPA, while the lowest is 2.3 LPA. Big names like PWC, Paytm, and Google come to hire us. The internships are cool too, with good facilities and even a stipend.

Campus: The college has great facilities like high-speed Wi-Fi and clean food in the hostel mess. The library is big and has everything we need, like a library ID card. The hostel facilities are good, and the food quality at the mess and canteen is really good too.

Admission: The teachers at the National Institute of Technology Puducherry are super helpful and really know their stuff. The course curriculum is spot-on, and it prepares us well for the industry. Love it here!

Placement: Half of the students from my course got placed in IT companies. The salary package ranges from 3.5 LPA to 16 LPA, with an average of 8 LPA. The top companies that recruit from our college are ABB, CDOt, and Accenture. Also, around half of us got internships, including at companies like Lenovo.

Campus: The college buildings are just okay since they were built about 4 years ago. The Wi-Fi can be strong at times and weak at others, which can be frustrating. The food quality isn't great either.

Admission: The teachers are really nice and helpful. The new curriculum is a bit tough because of the changes in the education policy. The semester exams are not too hard, but it also depends on the professor. You need to get at least 40% to pass. This course doesn't really prepare us well for the industry.

Placement: There are 59 students in my electronics and communication engineering batch. This year, the highest package offered was 15 Lacs. Students mostly find internships on their own because the college doesn't really help with that.

Campus: The infrastructure isn't great, but it's okay. They're doing construction, so it's a bit hard to get around. The hostels are far from the college, so it's a long walk. The Wi-Fi isn't the best on campus or in the hostel.

Admission: The teachers are nice. Some really know their stuff, some are trying their hardest, and some are just okay. The exams are not too hard, mostly on the easier side. They follow the new education policy well here. The courses are pretty good overall.

Placement: I've noticed that placements are getting better at our college. Companies like Cognizant, Samsung, ABB, L&T, and Zoho come for placements. The highest package is around 20 LPA, while the lowest is around 2 LPA. On average, it's about 10 LPA. But getting placed here isn't easy. There's not much of a coding culture here. Both teachers and students don't seem very serious.

Campus: The Moyar hostel is the best one with great facilities. Bharali and Bhavani hostels are like low-quality government college hostels. Also, there's a thief around who stole my friend's 45k earbuds last month. Better keep your doors and windows closed all the time to be safe.

Admission: In my CSE class, one teacher just copies stuff from YouTube. Another teacher explains things really well, but they make exams super hard. They seem qualified, but not very experienced or up-to-date. The course content makes sense. Exams get tougher each semester, so watch out.

Placement: Almost everyone who goes for placements ends up with a job offer, which is cool. The highest salary package is usually between 25 to 30 lakhs per year, while the lowest is around 6 lakhs. Big companies like Zoho, L&T, ABB, and SAMSUNG hire students from here. In my class, most people are choosing to do paid internships. The popular job roles are data analyst, data processing supervisor, and program developer.

Campus: The campus is still being built, so it's gonna take a couple more years. They're working on new buildings for students to live in. The Wi-Fi isn't great, and the classrooms don't have AC. The library is kind of old school, and the labs aren't super high-tech. We only have a few sports options like one basketball court, one badminton court, and a couple of volleyball courts. The food in the mess hall isn't that good not very healthy or tasty. They charge $23,000 per semester for the mess, which seems kinda pricey for what you get.

Admission: Studying here is pretty chill. The exams and classes aren't too hard if you put in some effort. Besides that, there are clubs to join where you can work on your skills. It's a good place to improve both technical and management skills.

Placement: I really like how our college helps students find jobs. Most people here end up getting good job offers. If you're good at what you do, you'll definitely land a nice job. Every year, big companies like ABB, CDot, L&T, Ford, and Tech Mahindra come to hire students.

Campus: Our college is pretty new, started in 2010, so the infrastructure is still growing. But they're working hard on it. The classrooms are nice and the labs are great, with helpful techs and smart people.

Admission: The EEE faculty is really nice and helpful. They know a lot about electrical engineering, but they might not cover every single topic. There aren't many research opportunities available, though. The workload was doable, but after the NEP came in, things got a bit different.

Placement: The placement scene in EEE is pretty good. Companies such as Hitachi, Nexturn, L&T, and QBit Labs visited our campus for recruitment. On average, people got placed with a salary of around 7 LPA. Some of my friends even landed jobs at ABB. I heard they were offered roles like Graduate Trainee, Data Analyst, and Software Developer. The placement season is still ongoing, so there might be more opportunities coming our way.

Campus: The college is still getting built, so not everything is ready yet. Right now, there are two boys' hostels and one for girls. The first boys' hostel has AC, while the other one has nice facilities. The food in the mess is okay, and they do a good job keeping things clean and hygienic.

Admission: The teachers here are not very experienced. They focus a lot on theory and not enough on practical stuff. The Physics and Chemistry professors are especially like this. Exams are not too hard, but if you want to score top marks, you need to study all year round.

Placement: The placements used to be not so great before, but this year things have improved. The highest package for Mechanical Engineering was 15 LPA, the lowest was 6 LPA, and the average was 7 LPA. Companies like Abb, Cognizant, Ola, and Zoho came for placements. Unfortunately, no student landed an internship in three years. The top roles offered are in Instrument Design and Vehicle Management.

Campus: The Wi-Fi at this college is seriously bad. They charge $300 for it, but the speed is terrible. The same goes for the hostel Wi-Fi. If your room faces outside, you can stream 4k videos smoothly. But if not, you'll get a lot of errors. And the food here is pricey and lacks veggies. Just a heads up if you're thinking of coming here.
