Sumit Prakash Gupta's Review on Motilal Nehru National Institute of Technology, [MNNIT] Allahabad
Placements and Internships
- My internship was in UHG for two months with a stipend of 35k. I got my internship opportunity from my college only. Companies visit every year for hiring 3rd-year students for internship. Major companies that visit belong to Technology domain and are mostly for CS, IT and ECE branches . They ask coding and software knowledge in written tests along with aptitude. Then they have technical and HR interviews. Banking and Finance sector companies also do visit and they hire for a post like business analyst or management trainee.
- The average salary for a CS student is around 10 lakhs and for ECE student is around 6 lakh. For all other branches , it keeps on varying every year. Highest salary is given by tech giants like Amazon and CodeNation with 30 lakh and 44 lakh CTC respectively. At the end of final year, around 90% of CS , IT branch and 85% of ECE branch gets placed. In MECH or Civil branches, it's around 10-15%. Most of them go for GATE Examination.
- Alumni Network is very strong . We get funds every year from them for hosting our technical and cultural festivals. Many alumni start their own technical companies and recruit students from our college for helping them. There is a strong bond between alumni and this college.

First is JEE Main which selects students for admission in NIT and IIT. Around 10Lakh students give this exam every year . From which only 1.5 Lakh are selected for JEE Advanced exam . This is the second exam under JEE.
- Students selected under this exam are called for IIT Counselling. And the students that can't pass this exam are called for NIT Counselling. JoSAA is the new counselling board for all IIT and NIT . CS and IT branches fill rapidly with high merits in MNNIT. Along with MECH and ECE. To secure a seat in one of these branches in MNNIT , you should pass your JEE Exam with good merit. So that even if you can not clear JEE Advanced , you still can make it to NIT.

There are mid seams and end seams in each semester. Mid-seems are of 20 marks and End seems are of 60 marks , 20 marks are an internal assessment. Students pursue projects on their own throughout their career and they get all help from teachers and the library. In the final year of B.Tech , one project is assigned to every student which carries marks too. There are practicals too and the labs are very well furnished. Students can make use of labs whenever they want.
- Teaching is very good and the syllabus is according to the knowledge level. The basics are taught first and then the higher core subjects are taught. In the first year, you will be made acknowledged to every stream subject so that students can choose which branch to take and can slide their branches from the second year. The methods of teaching are appropriate according to the number of students . We have projector facilities and mike for large classrooms . There is also tutorial classes being held every year for doubt clearing sessions and getting practice on physical world problems.

Entrance Exams & Admissions : Admissions at Motilal Nehru National Institute of Technology are based on the JEE mains ranking.
Entrance Exams & Admissions : Students with 80% marks in HSC exams only are considered for the admissions. In my year of application, there were separate exams for IITs and NITs, IIT-JEE & AIEEE respectively. The procedure has changed since then and now there is a common exam for entrance in these institutes. There are two rounds in the entrance exam & both rounds are qualifying. Cut-offs vary yearly. Usually, it ranges from 80 - 85% score in both exams. Since over 10 lakh students appear for these exams, the competition is pretty tough. MNNIT, Allahabad is among top 15 engineering institutes in India and ECE closes at 6000 to 7000 ranks.
