NIT Durgapur - A place that always stays with you.

Placements: In my course, 82% of students from our batch got placed. The highest package offered is 52 LPA. The lowest package offered is 3.3 LPA. The average package offered in the ECE course is 9 LPA. The top recruiting companies for our course are Microsoft, JPMC, Texas Instruments, Amdocs, and PwC. Nearly 40% of students from our batch are able to secure internships by the 3rd year. The top roles offered are SDE, digital logic engineer, and associate.

Infrastructure: Campus Wi-Fi is pretty good. Classrooms are well-maintained. The library is one of the most comfortable places to focus and study. The quality of the mess food exceeded expectations. We have a special dinner every Wednesday in Hall-1 during our stay in the final year, and have an even better dinner scheduled monthly.

Faculty: Faculty members of the college are extremely helpful, especially for ECE. The course covers all aspects an ECE engineer should know, and is exclusive to the GATE syllabus. Semester exams are moderately difficult, but one can ace them if studied sincerely.

NIT DGP. All about the ECE branch.

Placements: 72% of students get placed in ECE this year. The highest package is around 24 LPA, the minimum is 8 LPA, and the average is 11 LPA. The top recruiting companies that come are Micron, Intel, Nvidia, Microsoft, and Texas Instruments. In my year, 8 students get internships in the software domain. In the core domain, no companies come for internships. Software Developer is the top role offered.

Infrastructure: Wi-Fi facility is good. There are always polls among halls to improve Wi-Fi if needed. Labs of ECE have improved a lot, and efforts are being made to improve them further. Students are allowed to explore labs and make projects. Classrooms are good and have AC in the new building. The library is good and has all books for GATE and the course. The hostel facilities are good, and the mess quality is decent, although students make efforts to improve it.

Faculty: In ECE, professors are supportive. They are all qualified and provide good information. Although some are strict, others are more relaxed as well. The course curriculum is as per GATE and does make students industry-ready. The semester exams are slightly difficult, but the ECE professors tell students which topics will be asked.

Other: I chose this course because I get this college and branch from my JEE Main ranks. The best thing is that it actually deep-dives into how electrical/electronic components work. There are some more practical sessions and hackathons related to the core. Events and fests are good. The campus is very good. Bengal students do get scholarships from the government. Extracurricular activities are fests and inter-hall sports.

Have a great experience studying in the college and experience good peers.

Placements: Any kind of IT roles like the top MNCs (Microsoft and Goldman Sachs) as well as hardware roles and consulting ones. Almost every IT company that comes to college allows the ECE students to sit in for their placement drive. There are hardware-specific companies too but they offer relatively lower CTC. Every company conducts online test followed by a technical interview as well as the HR interview for placements.

Infrastructure: Medical facilities are mediocre often medicines are not available at the medical unit and need to be purchased from outside. Sometimes doctors are also not available or are not that good. Mess food is good but depends on the hall. Other than that there are many restaurants for food within 2 KM radius of the campus. Sports facilities are good. We have volleyball court and badminton court available in every hostel. There are 2 big playgrounds named Lords and Ovals for cricket and football.

Faculty: Teachers are knowledgeable but only a few of them put in effort to make us understand the concepts while the others don't care about it. They blindly read the PPTs just for the sake of syllabus completion. The course curriculum has been the same for 20 years with no updation and it is far from being industry-relevant. Students have to put in effort to make themselves relevant to the industry. Semester exams are light with very little work loads and even the syllabus can be completed by studying for the last week. Almost everyone pass the semester exam.

The progressive college makes students' future bright.

Placements: I am an ECE department student. This batch is very good here. The percentage placement is above 95%. The highest package is 60 LPA. The average package is 20 LPA. The lowest package is 8 LPA. Almost 50% of students get internships. Microsoft, Reliance, Tata, etc., are big companies that come to our placement campus.

Infrastructure: A separate department is made for each branch on the campus. 24/7 Wi-Fi is free for us. Digital classrooms are also available for us. A big library named Central Library is made for students. There are 17 hostels on my campus. The hostel is so damm good. Free Wi-Fi is also provided in my hostel. The food quality is so good. There are two big sports grounds on my campus. Many sports equipment is provided by the college for our sports facilities.

Faculty: All professors are very qualified and very helpful. Their teaching style is damm good. The course curriculum is very good and relevant for us as making a good engineer. Exams are very difficult in my college. The passing percentage for theory is 35% and for the practical lab exam is 50%.

Other: I chose B.Tech because I want to become a good engineer and help my society to be in progress. The best thing about my course is that it makes me a good human being and sharp. It makes me a very strong and also a good engineer. Many events like Recstacy, Recrave, Wavecraze, Arohan etc., are held in my college. Scholarships like NSP, Vivekanand Scholarship, etc., are provided to students for their financial help.

Satisfied but there is a huge scope of improvement for NIT DURGAPUR.

Placements: In the previous passing batch of 2023, placement percent was near about 84%, with the highest package being 70 LPA and the average being 13 LPA. In total, 746 jobs were offered in that season. Some of the top companies were JP Morgan, TCS, Samsung, Adobe, Amazon, Axis Bank, Oracle, and many more.

Infrastructure: The facilities that are available for each department are many. Labs, new classrooms, and libraries are all air-conditioned. Labs are well-equipped with most of the machines that are necessary. Hostels are good. However, the quality of mess food is not up to the mark in some of the hostels. Medical facilities are somewhat lacking in terms of necessary equipment.

Faculty: Most of the professors here are just excellent. They are highly qualified and knowledgeable and are always there to help. The course curriculum is also good. They continuously modify the syllabus to make sure that the course is relevant according to modern-day requirements. Semester exams are mostly easy to pass. But if someone wants to get 90+, they must have a good understanding of the subject.

Other: I chose this course because I am interested in semiconductors and want to build a career in it. Also, this was the best option that I was getting at the time of counselling. Many events take place every year. Two annual fests that take place are Aarohan (the technical fest) and Recstacy (the cultural fest). The alumni network of this college is also strong.

Can I get admission in NIT-Durgapur for B.Tech in electronics and communication engineering on the basis of my JEE rank?

Answered 8 years ago

Sure, but first of all, what is your JEE rank? Last year, the cut-off range was 4.5K to 13.6K for WB state and 3.8K to 9.7K for other state (General Category).

Can I get admission in NIT on the basis of AIEEE rank ? My rank in AIEEE is 263202.

Answered 9 years ago

Hi suman! You are not qualified as your score is 51. The cut off for general caste is 81. So, you cannot write JEE Advanced. Getting NIT is not easy with this score as many people would have been qualified. So anyway, you apply for counselling in www.josaa.nic.in All the best!
