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

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.

Not very satisfactory college.

Faculty: Not all the teachers are that welcoming and helpful. They may be knowledgeable but don't always profess the knowledge properly. The curriculum is okayish. Still, it should be improved. The exams are not very difficult. If you study properly, you can score good.

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

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.

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.

It is not a good college, I won't recommend it.

Faculty: The faculty is good, but the content they provide is not good enough to secure good position in technology. Most of the time, we have to prepare for most of the subjects on our own. Some faculty don't even provide good PDFs at the time, they provide them at the end of the semester, and we can't score good marks on the midterm exams.

NIT Durgapur honest review.

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.

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 fo...

Review of NIT Durgapur - National Institute of Technology.

Faculty: Teachers are well-educated and knowledgeable. They are from NITs and IITs colleges. The mechanical engineering course curriculum is somewhat relevant to industry management. Semester exams are tough, so we have to study more than that.

Don't take civil in NIT DGP.

Faculty: Teachers are now okay, but some professors are not good. There is some partiality towards locals, but still, some professors are really good and have good knowledge. Exams are also quite okay because there will be no stress due to the gap between exams and less syllabus.
