College Infrastructure
Our college is spread around 187 acres.There are total 14 halls for both boys and girls,for 1st year students you will be alloted the new hall number 11 where you have to share your room with 2 others.We have a cenrtal library having more than 10 lakhs books including journals,various books for competitive exams ,etc.We have a good medical unit and tied up hospitals in durgapur and kolkata.We have a caferteria and 2 saloons opened at saturday and sunday.We have a gym and unlimited wifi.
Academics
The mechanical department of nit durgapur is pretty good.Although our faculty members are very knowledgeable and highly qualified from premium indian colleges.But only few are very friendly and have a good teaching style ,few are very rude ,few have poor teaching skills,and some are just in a hurry to finish the syllabus somehow.Well each semester consists of 3 phases ca1,ca2 and end term .Curriculum is not fully updated compared to foreign top colleges.
Placements
The placement of our college is pretty good this year.Until now our 7th semester more than 70% are placed with an average placement of 11.46 LPA CTC and the highest is 46 LPA CTC grabbed by 19 students of cse and ece branches.About 11% of students got more than 20+ LPA CTC ,6% students got 15-20 LPA CTC,15% students got 10-15 LPA CTC. This year onwards we have a new placement policy where you can sit for companies offering 12.5+ LPA CTC or PSU if your department placement % is more than 75.
Value-for-money
The fees of nits iits are very high compared to local private colleges in bengal and gov. medical colleges,but if you are able to show an ITR of less than 5 lacs during admission time you can get scholarship of 66% . The total fees in 4 years is 6,38,900 and around 8 lacs at the end including the mess food and extra curricular activities.
Campus Life
There are 20 clubs in our college for example cca robocell,tech ,coding ,edc ,mntc and many quiz riddles clubs too.There is an annual fest every year and also junction and big bazar is near NIT where you can enjoy your evening with your colleagues.We have a basic health care facility very popular among students.No ragging is there so a good social culture among students and you will be watching a lots of diversity in the campus .
Anything Else
I want the college fees of NITS IITS hike to be reduced to make it look as a government reputed institute .I chose this college as it the best college after iit kgp in west bengal.The best thing about my course in this college that this course make me learn time management and gives that exposure to the outside world. Thank you

The classrooms in the college are spacious, the laboratories are well equipped with modern amenities, two large playgrounds are there which facilitates various kinds of activities. The hostel rooms are more or less okay with decent and cheap food in hostel.
Academics
I am a student of Chemical Engineering in NIT Durgapur and according to me the quality of teaching is nice here with professors well versed in their respective fields. The curriculum of the course is neatly designed which is totally compatible with today's competitive world.
Placements
The overall average placement in this college is at an average level or just more than average with average package being 10-12 LPA. Although big tech giants like Microsoft, Google,Amazon and the great PSU giants like IOCL, HPCL, Reliance Industries come for on campus hiring, they are bagged by only a certain no. of students.

The library of nit Durgapur is a center of attraction for everyone. It is 3 storeyed building with digital classrooms. It has a collection of 1 L books. The hostels are very hygenic and each has a seperate mess for each hostel.
Academics
I am in the final year of B.tech in metallurgical branch. The course curriculum is not that updated which you will find in IITs ,bits pilani . But many courses are being introduced. Recently , meeting was held on the introduction of instrumentation branch.
Placements
Placements of this college particularly in non core branches is very good. Companies like microsoft, Amazon, Deloitte, cognizant, Bajaj, Tata group comes for recruitment. Average package for the metallurgy branch was 6L per annum.
Value-for-money
The semester fees in online mode is 95k and in offline mode is 1.1L. But various scholarships are provided for the obc /sc/st students but for general students there are very less. Fee remission is given on the basis of annual income.
Campus Life
The teachers here are very friendly in terms of coordination with the students. Various sports grounds are provided for the students like cricket football basketball. You will get the best mess food in this college.

As I started my college in online and still going so, that's why I have not seen my campus in my eye. But according to seniors NIT DGP has a decent college infrastructure with labs having modern facilities. Hostels have free 24*7 wi-fi facilities.
Academics
As it is a college with national importance we have a healthy academical environment. Some professors are good but not all of them. Curriculum is also updated but according to me it is not job-ready after all. As you have to develop your own skill by own and professors are not going to teach you all those stuffs.
Placements
NIT DGP has a decent placement scenario with 75 percent+ avg. placement with a avg. CTC 7-8 LPA. Almost 120-130+ companies come for on campus placement along with tech giants, mass recruiter and core companies.
Campus Life
NIT DGP has a campus of 187 acres along with 14 hostels. So you can judge how it could be full of enjoyment along with tech fest and cultural fest every year. Infrastructure of first year hostel (Hall 11) is too good but rest others are not so like Hall 11 the college is old enough and some buildings are old and the process of renovation of them is under process and the mess food avg. of its kind.

College Infrastructure
Infrastructure needs massive development for this college. Benches, chairs, etc need to be modernized. Some classes don't even have proper working fans. Living spaces are ok. But rooms could do with 2 roommates instead of 3-4 based on the room size. Food quality for some hostels is good. But not same for all hostels. Quantity is sufficient however for all. There are no smartboards in classrooms. Summers can be very tough in Durgapur. Cooling arrangements can be made for the hostel residents.
Academics
More effort on rote learning, passing the exams. Not much adherence is given to knowledge gathering. Only a couple of professors treat students humanely. Best is to avoid being targeted. Only one student or two are seen with good eyes.
Placements
M.tech placements are horrendous, especially for electrical department. Placement cell is not even bothered about it. Often queries regarding such are not entertained, rather students are driven out from the office of the placement officer.
Value-for-money
Not worth it. Some of the other NITs and IITs provide a grander experience. Not much learning is seen. Rather important to be not subjected by professors. Takes a massive toll on mental health and other health related issues for many student. Not worth it.
Campus Life
The best aspect of campus life is the fun that one can have with friends either in the hostel, or being involved in various clubs, to learn new skills, or the least to pass some time. Else not much is present to look forward to.

Library: NIT Durgapur library is a separate three storey building with a collection of 1.5lac volumes consisting of text books, reference books etc.It is equipped with digital library. A CADEMIC BUILDING:There are two separate academic building:new and old.Buildings are equipped with all modern accessories..HOSTEL:College has 7 boys and 2 girls hostel,three of these are single bed rooms for senior students.Recreational rooms and separate mess are present in every hostel.OTHERS:Two sports field a
Academics
I am a student of MME and I think my curriculum is updated one and it is efficient in providing jobs.Every subjects is taught with 50%lecture hours,30%lab classes and 20%tutorial classes.My curriculum focus in research and development, industrial knowledge and also helps to gain knowledge in IT sector through different electives.I think this curriculum should be updated by recent developments in this field with more industrial application.
Placements
Overall placement ranges from 75%-80% every year.Big tech giants like Microsoft,Amazon,JP Morgan,Flipkart,Goldman Sachs etc visits campus for hiring.Other major companies like HAL,TATA,JINDAL,Haldia petrochemical lmt. also visit.Computer science related stream has highest placement percentage with highest packages(39-43lpa). Mechanical engineering:75%-80%.Electrical engineering:70%-77%.Chemical engineering:65%-70%.MME:55%-60%.Civil engineering:40%-45%.biotech:40%-45%.Average package:7.8lpa
Value-for-money
Course cost of this college is 1.3-1.5 lac per year.Under privileged (OBC,SC/ST) and low family income students are provided with Tution fee waiver.This benefit is also available for physically challenged students.In comparison with other government,semi government and private colleges in India this college has low course cost and average median packages.So I find my money's worth studying in this college.
Campus Life
Campus Life in NIT Durgapur is good.There is full freedom inside the campus but time barrier for 1st year students both for boys and girls.Two fest occur every year,Aarohan: annual techno management fest and other Nityamini : cultural fest,both are second most big in eastern India after IIT Kharagpur.Different clubs like CCA,drama club,music club,dance club,and many other clubs like Radio nitroz,Darpan etc are present.They organise many events.It is situated in durgapur,major city of WB.
Anything Else
Gender ratio in this college is good in comparison with other colleges.student teacher relation are also nice.

The college is really well equipped and has improved its infrastructural facilities over time.There is a well stocked central library,two large playgrounds(called popularly as Ovals and Lords),a Student's Activity Centre for workout,sports and other recreational features.The classrooms are spacious ,hostels are well maintained.There is Wifi connectivity in the campus.The departments have been renovated recently and converted to posh classrooms,with beautiful laboratories and digitalisation.
Academics
I had studied Chemical Engineering and the faculty was one of the best on campus.The course curriculum is well updated,the projects and experimental work are all in keeping with the need of the subject and makes a person prepare himself well for the industry.Definitely one needs to work hard too.The teachers take classes regularly and even arrange for extra clasees if need be so.
Placements
The placements were really good in 2017 and I myself had been placed on campus.For the batch of 2017-2018 around 500 students were placed among 746 students.The median salary was 6 lpa .The placement coordinators were really great and ensured to make the process as smooth as possible.
Value-for-money
In 2017 the course fee per year .Yes it was worth the money mainly because the tag definitely plays a major role as it is a Tier c1 ollege in the country and also the faculty and infrastructure is really good.The seniors are also helpful and assist in making the campus a congenial place to live in.
Campus Life
The college has a medical unit for emergencies.The campus is a beautiful place and has a lovely atmosphere.The seniors are friendly and the faculty is great.There are numerous clubs for different extracurricular activities and also fests are an important part of the enjoyment.Freshers' welcome to farewell the journey is really awesome.

The new hostels have large spaces and beautiful infrastructure alongwith hygienic and clean washrooms. The rooms are spacious and the architecture is really nice. The new boy's hostel is also great, however the playground is small.
Academics
I'm studying CSE and the quality of teaching is good offline. Unfortunately online it has been difficult for both professors and students. Most professors are passionate about the subject they teach in class.
Placements
Placements for CSE/IT is great. It's above 95 percent(excluding mass recruiters). Even the summer internships are great, particularly for CSE/IT and Mechanical students. ECE, EE branches also get good internships.
Value-for-money
The fees is high in online because we are doing online classes so it feels bit unreasonable tbh. The access to libraries, professors and other facilities isn't available online so the fees seems high wrt that
Campus Life
Campus life is great, even though it is in a small city. Experience is what we make out of it afterall. Regional engineering colleges were made in 1960's to promote education in remote areas and it surely helped.

If you are genuinely interested in learning you are going to have a lot of opportunities. The professors here have really good knowledge of the subjects and most of them are ready to help. Also professors are engaged in research so you can have a chance to do research work under them.

Placements are above average. Most of the good product based companies like amazon, Microsoft , Qualcomm visit the campus. Jp morgan and goldman sachhs also recruit for software profiles. Cesc ,reliance,tata etc also visit the campus.

The food in the canteen is served in hygienic conditions. We have all the necessary sports equipments. We also have mandatory yoga classes in the 2nd semester.
Academics
I am studying Computer Science Engineering because I want to become a software engineer and land a job in good companies. Quality of teaching is really good. The teachers conduct frequent exams to keep check on how much we are learning from the lectures. The present curriculum is up to date is sufficient to make students job ready if studied and applied sincerely.
Placements
Placement is good. The placement rate has been around 72% with a total of 116 companies participating. The highest was around 34 LPA in CSE or IT dept. Average CTC was around 9 LPA. The placement process was easy and smooth.
Value-for-money
The course fee per year is 1.4 lacs. The hostel fees is still being collected even though we weren't allowed to access the hostels during this pandemic. However the rest of the infrastructure and facilities are totally worth of the fees.
Campus Life
Campus life was cool. No ragging at all. Seniors have been really supportive. Our college has numerous clubs where one can participate and nurture their co curricular and technical skills which often are helpful for placements as well. The college is based in a plant city hence the city design is really beautiful and planned. The area is perfectly safe and has hospitals for handling emergencies as such

Infrastructure is not soo good . Sports facilities are not good enough . Yeh hostel facility is quite good . Every year there will be technical festivals and also you will get chance to show your skills and knowledge .
Anything Else
Professors are supportive and alot knowledge of their respective field . For Btech this College is good because of the placement statistics. You can secure sit in this College by securing good rank in JEE mains.

Being a research scholar expected very good laboratory but it doesn't meet requirements of research scholars and no special equipment is available for Thermal students to do projects.Class room is good enough but doesn't have projector. no single sharing rooms available but hostel building is good enough to spend peaceful life no
Academics
I am studying M.Tech in Thermal engineering in which I want to continue my research further.The faculty are highily qualified and way of teaching is also good. Our curriculum is up to date but some subjects are not that useful and some faculty won't teach passionatelt. CFD is the only subject which make you job ready
Placements
Many IT companies will come and allow you for placements if you have good coding skills (enough to compete with other students) you will be place easily with above average package like 3.5 LPA to 7LPA. Core companies come rarely and unfortunately won't even allow you to sit in interview. Core companies like LnT offer around 5LPA. College is supportive for placements
Value-for-money
I pay around 65,000 per semester including tution fee,hostel fee and mess fee. We get stipend which is surplus to pay fee. Mess food is also good enough to survive.myne is the cheapest college in top 10 NIT's list .
Campus Life
The best feature is it is fully residential so every student have to stay in hostel only. For every hall there will be a common room so that students can play games like carrom,Table tennis etc and can watch TV also. The staff also stay inside campus so they available easily.campus is near by junction mall(for having fun )and Benacity(for shopping ). It is vary safe inside, it has two ambulance services for emergencies.
Anything Else
If you have capability to learn yourself it will teach both academic and non-academic skills.

The college has good infrastructure with a well maintained library, good medical facilities, proper laboratory facilities. Hostels are well maintained but need improvement as most hostels are old now. New hostels are coming up. Very neat campus.
Academics
Professors are always ready to solve doubts. Syllabus is covered properly and there are lots of hackathons and workshops by college clubs to facilitate practical understanding of what we learn. There are lots of projects offered to interested students too.
Placements
Though I'm in first year of college. Placements are really good for Computer Science and Information Technology students. However the Core branches need to work a bit more hard to grab their dream jobs.

I am from CSE department and I took this department because I don't like to mug up most of the things and convey in a logical manner.The quality of teaching is average,the professors there are well qualified and can solve any of the doubts regarding any issues but teaching techniques are not that well manner.The curriculum keeps changing according to the present scenarios taking care of the demand of that subject in that field.If you are studying to get a good job you too have to study hard.
Placements
Placements are good,the highest package can raise around 30 to 40lpa and average up to 9lpa and mass companies also comes up take many of the students .The packages depends departmental wise where the highest packages goes to IT/CSE students and it also depends upon the student's performance if he/she performs well in placements then students from any branch can get a placement with decent package.
Campus Life
The campus life is the best here,get to know all kind of people around you as there is much diversity.There are various clubs for dancing,music,art, debating, management, photography,technical, automotive etc. and the campus is not that far from the near by malls and markets with many well know restaurants and in emergency cases a hospital is situated near by but there is a medical unit inside campus. Some professors can be bit annoying but you need to cope up with them if you want good grades.
Anything Else
The overall experience here is awesome.What makes a college,a college is the students.There what you have at the first year will be totally different when you reach final year with lots of experience over many things.You will just have to open up a little in the beginning and the environment does it all.College life spent here is precious,you start up with no knowledge to getting up a job,you start up with a proposal to getting up your love,you start up with friendship and getting up a family.

College Infrastructure
We have a spacious campus and there are both old and new buildings. The hostels are good, each room is to be shared by three students in the first year. The washrooms of the hostel are also sufficient in number and are well maintained. The mess food is good and also both vegetarian and non vegetarian options are available. There id plenty of facilities for playing both indoor and outdoor sports. the classrooms and laboratories are well maintained and equipped.
Academics
We have really knowledgeable and well learned faculties who have great command over their respective subjects. Most of the faculties have pursued their education from abroad and are currently doing research in their respective fields. Needless to say their knowledge and experiences translates well into their teachings.
Placements
Our college offers really good placement. The placement percentage of CSE is around 98%. Even for core branches like mechanical, the placement percentage is as high as 85%. A good number of renounced companies like Amazon, JP Morgan, oracle etc visit our campus for recruitment and the packages offered are also high.
Value-for-money
The college is not very costly, it is pretty affordable honestly. The per semester fee is around 75K but it can be less depending upon the income bracket of your family. Students with families having income below 1LPA pay around 7500 each semester, which is really affordable. The college has a pretty good ROI.
Campus Life
The campus life is simply amazing. We have really helpful faculties and staff members. There is a really healthy relationship between seniors and juniors and most of the seniors are really friendly and always available to provide guidance when needed. The campus is filled with all the essential amenities that one can want. There is really very little to complain about.
Anything Else
I am currently in third year, and to sum up my current experience till now, it has simply been spellbinding I have gotten man opportunities to exhibit my talent in all the areas, be it sports or cultural activities. Being a part of the Cricket team and the debating society has really provided a boost to my college. One major advantage of this college is that we have a really strong alumni network, in and outside India too.

The infrastructure is not so good . Especially the laboratories , hostel rooms and playground are not well maintained . The issue may be solved as new hostel for boys and new academic building have been constructed recently . Classroom quality is good .
Academics
Regarding Mechanical Engineering, the quality of teaching is good . Some of the teachers have really good concept and the way they deliver the lectures is also impressive . The curriculum for mechanical is updated . The study makes us job-ready . Professors also clarify our doubts regarding competitive exams .
Placements
Placements are decent for CSE and IT in NIT Durgapur. The maximum package for CSE is 40lpa (Microsoft) . Other companies like Oracle , Amazon , JP Morgan also visiit our campus for IT placement . Regarding mechanical companies like IOCL , BPCL , Tata Motors , and many more visits the campus . We also have abroad summer internship opportunities in CERN , DAAD , Mitacs .
Value-for-money
The cost of course in any NIT is not at all justifiable. Its just too much for a government college .

College Infrastructure
Before coming to the college, I expected a top-notch infrastructure as the name suggests it's NIT. I must say, it's quite satisfactory but not top-notch. The classrooms are spacious and have projectors and microphones. The laboratories are well equiped with apparatus. The library have some very good books in store for us. But the cataloguing is not computerized which is a big problem. But the main problem is students do not get free wifi in campus.The SAC and the sports centres are very good.
Academics
The performance in academics mostly depends upon your own effort. The quality of class lectures depend upon your luck as every professor is having a different teaching style that may or may not suit you. But at the end most of them are approachable if you have any doubt. In case of ECE, it's one of the best department of NIT Durgapur with updated curriculum and excellent faculties. Also there are plenty scopes of doing projects. The rest depends on you.
Placements
I am in the second sem currently. So not a very clear idea of the placement scene. But I have heard from the seniors and the quality of placement is quite satisfactory. In 2019 the average salary is 9.09LPA and the highest is 32.54LPA.90+ companies visited. The placement reached almost 70-80% for all branches with mechanical and electrical being the most prominent. Top visiting companies were IBM, TCS, Cognizant, Microsoft, Amazon, Director, Vedanta and Wipro and Infosys.
Value-for-money
The course fee is extremely high for general category-1 students (check fee pattern in NIT DGP website for further information). Its fee is nearly equivalent to a private college. The course structure is not up to the mark if we look from the huge fee perspective.
Campus Life
The campus is large, clean and beautiful with greenery everywhere. The stray dogs sometimes create a little bit of problem though😂. Best thing is plenty of food option. And the worst thing is zone culture. There are many clubs for different activities. One can give auditions according to their choice. The bus stop is nearby but the railway station is a bit far. The campus is safe with equipment to tackle emergencies.
Anything Else
The first year girls hostel is very very depressing with water and wifi problem prevailing. But the senior girls hostels are good.

College Infrastructure
We have a sapaceous campus having some old buildings replaced by new ones . Hostel are just good with proper number of bathrooms. In each room we have 3 students. We have 2 big grounds but not so well maintained. Hostels and departments are well connected with high speed WiFi. We also have badminton court,Gym etc Also lab and workshop are well equipped with required equipments. Mess food is good as it has non-vegetarian options.
Academics
Many of the faculties have degree from abroad and currently working on their research projects. They are helpful inside and outside the class. Their command over the subject is excellent. Our course curriculum should need to be updated especially for core branches so that we can match the level of current industrial demands.
Placements
Placement cell need to be reformed with good authorities so that they can manage the HRs and recruiters efficiently as placement are not only the subject matter for students. About 75% of students got placed while 90% of CSE/IT students got placed bagging with an average salary of 8LPA . We have various top MNCs like Google, Amazon etc while mass recruiters like TCS ,Infosys etc. Highest salary goes to about 40LPA by CSE/IT student.
Value-for-money
I pay around 69k per semester as my income category is below 5LPA. students with income category less than 1LPA pay around 7500 per semester. Thus such a low fees for NIT tag and such facilities justifies worth of every penny of my money.
Campus Life
In the sports corner , we have 2 big grounds, badminton court,Table tennis facilities ,Gym etc we also have 3 Main fest celebrated every year - Aviskar ,Aarohan and recstacy. Also we have freshers and fairwell in which we keep the moment to decay slowly. Seniors faculties and staff members are helpful except some the staffs being rude . Also we have medical facilities available for college students free of cost

The infrastructure looks good to the eye but most of the buildings are not used for academic purposes and most of the hostels have not been allotted to the students, which will help them stay in a relaxed manner. The placement is good no doubt for non-core branches, but for core branches it is the same as all the other colleges across India. The administration is the worst that can be seen anywhere. They are unhelpful and would do anything to waste your time. The faculty is good, although do not cater to individual needs. Hostel life here is incomparable. Facilities are good too. And the college campus is big enough with adequate facilities.

College life is very good.Facaulty is not of the standard of a well known nit.Seniors are pretty helping.Hostel and campus infrastructure is pretty old and outdated.Placements are very good every year.A lot of fests are organized every year.To be honest seniors are more concerned about us than the administration itself.Mess food is very bad.

College campus is large and clean. Many opportunities for extracurricular activities. Hostels are maintained but can be made better. Academically good. Teachers are helpful and qualified. However one has to rely on self studying. Hostel food is very bad. College is affordable and also has many scholarship opportunities. It has a good exposure and placements are also commendable.

National institute of technology is government funded college which takes admission through Jee Mains It is an above average college. The placement stats for CSE and IT are very good and increasing every year but for other branches the placement record is not so good

I think that the industrial connect can be made stronger and the 1st year faculties provided can be improved because the departmental faculties are nice but the phD scholars are absolutely not convincing.The placement is good in the CSE and IT departments. the mechanical branch is also a preferred choice out here.

Infrastructure is not bad at all. COLLEGE has tie up with CERN for student internships . College also provide good industry exposure. It has good placement records with over 80 companies visiting the campus. There are too many clubs here for student exposure to the world.
