4Placements4Infrastructure5Faculty4Crowd & Campus Life4Value for Money

NIT Durgapur has a really good infrastructure when compared to others, and a decent one.

Placements: So, the placement scene in our college is not extremely good, but it is decent enough, with around 80% of students getting placed every year. The lowest is around 5 LPA always, and the highest varies from time to time, but it is generally near 20-25 LPA. Avg package varies from 8 to 9 LPA.

Infrastructure: Hostel Wi-Fi is decent enough, and so is the hostel. You have to clean and wash your clothes all by yourself, because they charge a lot of money, like literally a lot of money, if you want to give clothes for cleaning. Medical facilities are good, and so are the sports and games. Mess food is too average and not many options are available, actually.

Faculty: Faculty of our college is really good, they are helpful and knowledgeable. The teaching quality is decent, like sometimes you can think Oh, what are they doing. Curriculum is good too. Mid-semester is generally easy. End of semester is a little hard. But pass percentage is kind of good.

Other: Crowd is good, but not the campus life. I chose this course because I wanted Chemical Engineering and got it in JoSAA. About campus life, there are too many restrictions in first year.

Satisfied with the faculty and worth to join.

Placements: As I am studying in 1st year, I haven't talked with our super seniors completely, but a little bit. But I asked once, and they told me that placements in our college in the last year were terrible compared to other years. The highest is 32 LPA, the lowest is 7 LPA, and the average is 10 LPA. Top recruiters of our college are TCS, Wipro, Capgemini, Cognizant, and Axiom OI. I have no idea about internships. Software engineer, full-stack developer, data scientist, and AI engineer are roles offered in our course.

Infrastructure: We have no Wi-Fi, in addition, we have jammers to block the network. The labs are well-designed and maintained properly. The classrooms are really good with projectors included, a clean board, and nice air flow through windows, it is very comfortable. The library is also good with books. They got more books than any college after Githam.

Faculty: Teachers are helpful to us, and they have nice qualifications and are very friendly when teaching us, and they also help us in the lab practical very well. Our course curriculum is fully relevant, and it does help in making students industry-ready. Semester exams are really tough, but you could pass if you study well. I don't know about the pass percentage.

Other: I chose this course out of pure passion for being a chip designer, and the best thing about our course is the course itself. If the faculty of 1st year goes easy on us in labs, then it would be a great help for us to improve. Events are indeed well maintained. Love the annual day.

The tale of a student - Good infrastructure, average faculties, good placements, good campus life.

Placements: In my college, the percentage scenarios are quite good. If we talk in percentages, there is an 82% placement rate for this year's batch of 2025. The highest package is 58 LPA. The median package varies branch by branch, but overall, it is 12 LPA. On our campus, Microsoft, Apple, etc., companies visit. The internship scenarios are not that good, but if you have skills, you can secure some chances on this.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure of the college is good, I can say. Hostels, academic buildings, and labs are all fully air-conditioned and maintained, except for some of the labs, like the thermodynamics lab. Other core branch labs may not be that well-maintained, but the academic building is. Some classes in the main building don't have proper facilities. CS and hostels from the 3rd year are not so well maintained, but in the 1st and 2nd year, those are the best.

Faculty: If we talk about curriculum, as I am from MME, courses are upgraded every year. They introduce a new syllabus and subjects every year. About faculty: in the first year, approximately all faculty members are good, but in higher years, some of the professors are really dangerous. They are horrible, some of them, like 1 or 2, the rest are good.

The clear and complete review about 0 to 100 through this review.

Placements: 90% of students are placed in my course. 80 LPA is the highest package, 8 LPA is the lowest package, and 12 LPA is average package offered. Recruiting companies are Microsoft, Wipro, Flipkart, Amazon, etc. 75% of students got internships from companies like Microsoft, Amazon, etc. Roles offered are manager, HR, and programmer.

Infrastructure: Library contains maximum all type of books including course and exam syllabus related. Computer labs are newly constructed so they are in good condition. Wi-Fi is a non-wireless connection, and the speed is very good. Canteens are available around the college and inside the college too. The food is good but doesn't contain any spice or salt.

Faculty: Teachers are very qualified with experience of more than 20 years. They are very helpful with our studies. The course curriculum is relevant and makes the students industry-ready because all the lab work is very realistic and very helpful. The exams are at moderate level. 95% is the pass percentage.

Other: I love computer science and engineering. The coding atmosphere is pretty good at my college so I chose it. I wish the exam pattern could be better. My course strength is 201. Two major fests will take place.

NIT Durgapur honest review.

Placements: In electrical, in the previous branch, 80% students were placed. But the average package is not so good. Median package is 8 LPA. The highest package is from Microsoft and Apple. Only 2 to 3 students get internships from each branch. Overall, placements are moderate.

Infrastructure: Hostel facilities are moderate. Hostel food is average for the money taken. But Wi-Fi connection is excellent. Classrooms are provided with air conditioning. Course is good. But the time we get for the semesters is very less to study. Overall, the experience is good.

Faculty: Per semester, we have mid-term, CA (continuous assessment), and end term exams. The mid-term is of 25 marks, CA is of 15 marks, and end term is of 60 marks. Difficulty of semester exams is moderate. You can get good marks by learning what is taught in the class.

Good faculty, place for knowledge.

Placements: During the second year of our M.Tech, almost half of us got the opportunity to go for internships. It is a really valuable experience, and what made it even better is how amazing and supportive all the faculty members are. They genuinely cared about us and guided us throughout, making sure we didn't feel overwhelmed and helping us balance both the internship work and academics. Because of their mentorship and the opportunities provided, we are able to develop the skills and confidence needed to succeed both academically and professionally.

Infrastructure: Hostel facilities for M. Tech students are honestly pretty good. We have 24/7 Wi-Fi in the hostel. One thing I really like is that M. Tech students get single rooms. Having your own space makes a big difference, it's peaceful, you can study whenever you want, and you don't have to worry about disturbing anyone. The rooms are clean, reasonably spacious, and regularly maintained.

Faculty: Faculty here are really good and supportive. Each student is assigned a guide, and we get to work under their guidance on a specific project or research topic. It's a great opportunity because you can delve deep into one area and actually gain hands-on experience. In the first year, we have regular evaluations like CT1, CT2, and semester exams for both semesters, which help us to stay on track with our studies. In the second year, instead of written exams, we mainly give project presentations for sem-3 and sem-4, which makes it more practical and research-oriented.

Other: In M.Tech, they mostly focus on advanced topics. Rather than just covering the basics again, they really encourage us to explore subjects in depth and build a strong understanding of the core concepts. The idea is to go beyond surface-level knowledge and actually become confident in specialized areas.
