Dear Student,

NIT, Durgapur is an excellent institute both in terms of placements as well as research work. The batch year 2020-21, though in the pandemic, the highest package offered was 44 LPA by Microsoft. Many other eminent companies visit our college for placements, like Amazon,  Tata Motors, Tata Power, Aditya Birla, Qualcomm, Reliance etc. The college has good facilities, and day by day, many more facilities are being added. Recently, the new building was built for biotech with laboratories and classrooms. Though electrical and mechanical departments have old labs, they are under renovation. The faculty members are very cooperative and highly qualified. They teach well and care about students' knowledge, not marks. Exams and curriculum are set in a way that no one gets exhausted with them. Moreover, the teachers do provide quality education. They also conduct extra classes to clear our doubts.

Overall. I would say yes, you can go for the institute. You can do minor course for coding too.


Hope this helped in sorting out your query.

All the Best!!
