Hope it will be helpful for you :)

Dear aspirant,

Nit dgp in chemical has strong placements(if you are considering placements stats) .If your home state is west bengal ,then it is beneficial for you to join nit dgp as if you want you can get higher branch also.

But if you are from other state then look into your state nit( if it is better than nit dgp only) or else you can peacefully take chemical at nit dgp.

Not par with the NIT standard. Sports could be better, lots of unutilized area in campus. Academics is good, most professors are interactive. Good club culture, allows student to learn outside of academics.
