Hello Aspirant,

If you are interested in computer science, I will suggest that you enrol in IT at Iiest Shibpur. Because CSE and IT professionals consistently receive high positions and compensation. IIest Shibpur is a subject I know little about. But NIT Durgapur's IT was excellent. Infrastructure-wise, it is good, and so are the faculties. Furthermore, NiT Durgapur's IT placement rates are excessively high. If your coding abilities are strong, you'll get an excellent job with a high salary. So, if you enjoy computer science and coding, consider a career in IT.


Infrastructure-wise, ECE at NIT Durgapur is in decent shape. Faculty members are friendly and highly qualified. In terms of placements, ECE offers solid options. Not, however, CSE and IT. Furthermore, ECE is not permitted by any CSE or IT firms. So, compared to CSE and IT, ECE has a few less enterprises. But ECE employees receive competitive pay.


As a result of MOUs between NIT Durgapur and foreign universities, you may be able to obtain some international internships. For internships and placements, reputable businesses and PSUs visit. You can look at NIT Durgapur's placement rates.

At last it’s your decision to take which branch you have most interest. Choose accordingly.


Hope this helps,

All the best.

Hello,

I advise you to join CSE at nit durgapur because you should always give first preference to the branch you are receiving.

However, when we side-by-side compare the two with regard to placements, we can find that NIT DGP CSE prevails over IIEST IT. Every top-tier tech company visits NIT DGP for placements and internships. Campus placements are overall better for NIT DGP CSE, as compared to not only IIEST SHIBPUR IT, but also IIEST SHIBPUR CSE.

Coding Culture: A college's coding culture is the key for CSE students. NIT DGP succeeds here as well.

The NIT name will be much more widely recognised across the nation, and NIT DGP is an established NIT (formerly REC) with a solid reputation in the business. Even though IIEST isn't bad, the NIT designation is preferable. However, in the long run, I believe that only your hard work will matter—not the college or the tag.

Now it is your decision. Hope this helps. All the best.

Hello Aspirant,

Hope you're doing well.

I want to let you know that both these colleges offer B tech in Rs. 2,30,000.

So I think this is the cheapest fees to study B. Tech in a top institution.

Afterall, don't opt for a bad institution over a good one just for the sake of fees. This is the matter of education and NIT Durgapur and NIT Tezpur, both are better and cheapest possible institutions.

Hello,

At first very very congratulations to you and your daughter for securing such a good rank in JEE MAINS.NIT DURGAPUR offers 8 B.Tech programmes for the candidates namely- Bio-Technology, Chemical Engineering, Civil Engineering, Computer Science and Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Electronics and Communication Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, and Metallurgical and Materials Engineering.

Yes,You can get admission in any of the available branches in B.Tech in NIT Durgapur.

Hey there!

Well it is hard to predict about the colleges as admission to these institutes depends on various factors like:

1- Difficulty level of examination

2- No. of students appeared in exam

3- No. of seats available in institutes

4- Rank of candidate

5- Closing rank of programs


However we can get a rough idea of seat allocation by analyzing previous years trend.

---With 81 percentile and assuming your OPEN category, your rank would be anywhere in between 194370 - 218500, as per our JEE mains rank predictor tool

https://engineering.careers360.com/jee-main-rank-predictor

Also according to previous years data, the maximum closing rank at various NITs for general category for CS and IT program is around 6000-12000 considering home state quota.

For IT- https://engineering.careers360.com/articles/nits-cutoff-for-btech-information-technology

So, considering these data you have low chances for getting into NITs.
