Review of National Institute Of Technology Durgapur.
Placements: Placements are the best part of our college. Major Recruiters are Amazon, Microsoft, Oracle, Samsung and many more. The median salary package offered is around 7 LPA. According to 2018, the department with the highest placements is the IT department with almost 90% placement rate.
Infrastructure: The college is well-equipped with labs that will fulfil all the requirements of future engineers. Although NIT Durgapur is ignorant about its hostels, the food served in the mess is average or low standard. Hostel buildings are 60-year-old buildings. The campus has an average size compared to the IITs and a huge one if compared with any private college.
Faculty: The course curriculum is on point, but it may seem discrepant to young students. However, time teaches a lot. Professors are well qualified and have immense knowledge about the subjects they are teaching. But some of them are better than the rest.
Other: Every fest, event, and activity organised in our college are average. There are a lot of events though, and I can't provide much information about them as I haven't attended 70% of them.

Sanjiv' word on NIT DURGAPUR.
Placements: Year we are breaking placement records. Our year saw a huge upsurge in the placements. Next year it was even better. Almost 50% of the folks had two jobs in hand. And apart from that we saw a huge number of unconventional companies from domains like marketing, management, startups from various sectors like health insurance online education and NGOs.
Infrastructure: One of best infra in east india. Biggest library in terms of number of books. Lot of departments covering all verticals of engineering. Management studies, BCA MCA and M.Tech courses are also well renowned. One can notice a large number of Ph.D. students that shows the quality of teachers and innovative environment we have.
Faculty: One of the best faculty line here. Lot of lab officials are also there. Best thing is the number of different labs ranging to various departments. Including high voltage laboratory which one of a kind in india. New infra is in progress. Course review is done here periodically.
Other: This college might have the highest number of art and tech clubs in india.

Placements were good in 2018, and the infrastructure of the college is good.
Placements: The college has a good placement rate. They provide almost 100% placements for the students of IT and CS branches. More than half of the crowd get placed from other departments, as the rest opt for further studies. More than 200 companies offering salary packages ranging from 7 LPA to 40 LPA visited the campus. Overall, the placements in NIT Durgapur are excellent.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure of NIT, Durgapur has extremely developed in recent years. Now, we have well-concrete buildings for hostels and main academic building. Huge senate rooms are available for conferences. Hostels are well-maintained. Overall, the infrastructure of our college is good.
Faculty: Teachers in our college aren't highly qualified. The faculty to student ratio is very low. They follow very old methods of teaching. They use the books of old edition and presentations to teach. I didn't get any industry exposure in our college. The course curriculum is not that useful.
Other: Many events are conducted throughout the year. The college organises 3 fests. Surroundings of the campus are wonderful.

The placements and infrastructure of the college are good.
Placements: The current placement session has been very good as many technical companies have offered great placement offers to many students. Only a few companies have visited for core branches, but usually, core companies visit the college a bit late. Microsoft has offered jobs to 11 students from our campus out of which 9 students were offered a salary package of 39 LPA.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure of new hostels is like a hotel, but the old hostel buildings are not much good. The academic building is very beautiful, but classes are held only for 1st-year students. Later on, the students are moved to their respective branches. Classrooms of the chemical branch are completely air-conditioned. We have two sports grounds on the campus.
Faculty: Most of the teaching staff are from Bengal, and there is no diversity. They are biased towards the students who are from Bengal or speak Bengali. The quality of teaching is good. The course of the first year comprises elementary science like physics, chemistry, biology, mathematics, values and ethics, electronics, electrical, and C programming language. So, students have a chance to strengthen their weak points which might be useful in their department.
Other: The college conducts 4-5 events, but they are not as good as they used to be. There was no DJ night last year. Girls have to return to their hostel by 10:30 pm even during the fest. Durgapur city doesn't have much to offer. There are only a few places to hang out.
