Hello Aspirant,

According to your percentile your approximate rank would be near around 42,000-45, 000 and on the basis of this rank it is little bit hard to get Mechanical branch in NIT Durgapur but as you belongs to OBC and you are female so there are high chances that you might get seat in your required branch which is Mechanical. Note that the above prediction is made according to previous year's cut-off because this year's cut-off has not been released yet and cut-offs are bound to change every year depending upon various factors.

You can check previous years cut-off from the link given below :-

Hi aspirant,

WBJEE is conducted for admission to undergraduate courses in Engineering & Technology, Pharmacy and Architecture in Universities, Govt. Colleges and Self-Financed Institutes in the state of West Bengal. But NIT Durgapur and IIEST shibpur do not come under WBJEE. Hence you cannot get admission in NIT Durgapur and IIEST shibpur based on WBJEE score.

If you want to get admission in NIT Durgapur and IIEST shibpur you will have to write JEE Main and then qualify it. You have to satisfy certain eligibility criteria also. Then the admission process takes place through JoSAA counselling. There is also special round of seats remain vacant.

Hope you understand and wish you all the best.

Hi Pankaj,

NIT Durgapur and Jadavpur University both of then are outstanding colleges and holds almost similar features.

CSE is one of the most sought after branch of engineering. Both of them offers nice curriculum and placement in CSE but comparatively CSE at Jadavpur University is better. Jadavpur University is known for its CSE department. The Institute fee and hostel fee is very much lesser in Jadavpur University. It is 1200 per semester in Jadavpur University and 75000 per semester in NIT Durgapur. Besides there are other factors aa well you can opt as per your convenience.

Now comparing ECE and IT at Jadavpur University. Both of them are good branches and have numerous scopes in them. The placement is same in Jadavpur University. But compared to ECE IT has ample amount of opportunities and it is increasing.


Hope it helps you.

College Infrastructure

The institution's infrastructure requires significant improvements to meet modern standards. Many buildings show signs of age and neglect, impacting the overall learning environment. While some areas have been renovated, the labs and classrooms are noticeably outdated. This aging infrastructure affects the quality of equipment and resources available to students. Modernization is crucial to enhance the learning experience and provide students with the tools they need. Investing in updated facilities would greatly benefit both students and faculty. A comprehensive renovation plan is necessary to address these critical infrastructure needs and elevate the institution's standing.
