NITDGP as a whole

Placement Experience:

From 3rd year some companies come for internships, and they can give you pre-placement offers. Or else, you have to wait till 4th year (approx 97% of people do this) for placement. Each year the placement statistics vary, but nearly 75-80% get placed.

Dislikes

Old curriculum, needs to be updated soon
Poor laboratory conditions. Not maintained very well
Mess food is bad but its like this for nearly every college

In this college, the faculty is mainly from Bengal itself. Faculty have enough experience and knowledge as many of them have done their Ph.D. course from IITs, NITs, Jabalpur University, and many more good universities. Style of teaching is mainly on blackboard and some teachers use the PPT for teaching. The mode of communication is mainly English. Most of the faculty is good but some faculty is not that good in teaching.

Helpful for getting a PhD

Likes

Course structure - Helpful for national level exams.
Food- It's more than my expectations with such a cheap price.
Students to faculty ratio- It's almost 1:1.

Dislikes

Labs- these experiments are not well-designed and more focus on theory.
Hostel- single room would be a better option as many institutes have this for masters students.
Campus placement can be made better for non- technical students.

Placement Experience:

The placement for masters students is poor for science. It's not a problem with the institute, but it's a national problem. You can take a try in different IT companies and electronics companies, but I've seen anyone getting selected from MSC. There are some coaching institutes like Akash that recruit master's students. Btech students get a higher opportunity for jobs and the average package varies from 1M- 1.5M per annum, where the maximum salary goes up to 5-8M rupees per annum. almost 70-80 % get placed every year, but it's less than 10% for masters students in science. I planned to go for Ph.D. after the degree. The course is helpful for NET/GATE and almost 70-80% crack these exams every year.

NIT Durgapur: 1 Answered Question

What is your review of NIT, Durgapur?

Shivani DasB.Tech from National Institute of Technology Durgapur (2019)

Here is a detailed review shared by my brother who completed his graduation from NIT Durgapur

Infrastructure: Honestly, the infrastructure isn’t all that great but will provide all the basic amenities necessary for a good academic environment.
Faculty: Most students have to resort to self-study because the professors are not very passionate about teaching. However, if you do good projects under a professor, you may be able to pursue a master's in a foreign university.
Placements: NIT Durgapur has recorded excellent placements. This year the highest CTC offered was INR 70 LPA while the average salary offered was INR 13.64 LPA. The top recruiters included TCS Ninja, PwC, ICICI Bank, Microsoft, and many others. More than 100 recruiters participated in the placement drive and 633 students were placed.
Opportunities: The NIT tag will open a number of opportunities for you and the alumni network is also quite extensive. You can also avail opportunities like workshops and clubs.
Campus life: The campus life is very active with many fun-filled events like the freshers' farewell party and celebration of regional festivals. Additionally, a number of cultural and technical fests are also held.
Administration : The administration is very slow and is not cooperative. You might face some issues.
Location : NIT Durgapur faces no major connectivity issues. The railway station is 30 mins or 14 km away while the nearest airport is at Andal, which isn't well connected, so Kolkata Airport will be a better option. You can find the Auto rickshaw stand just at the main gate.
