    It's an emotion!!!!

    College Infrastructure

    The campus is good with nice environment and plantations all over.The newly build hostels are nice with good WiFi and Lan speed but most of the students are allotted in old hostels which are not in good conditions but can be adjustable,the library facilities are good,smart board are installed in many classes but most of the professors prefer board.The food is average here,you will never get food like your home not anywhere in India and the hostel are quit clean with regular cleaning facilities.

    Academics

    I am from CSE department and I took this department because I don't like to mug up most of the things and convey in a logical manner.The quality of teaching is average,the professors there are well qualified and can solve any of the doubts regarding any issues but teaching techniques are not that well manner.The curriculum keeps changing according to the present scenarios taking care of the demand of that subject in that field.If you are studying to get a good job you too have to study hard.

    Placements

    Placements are good,the highest package can raise around 30 to 40lpa and average up to 9lpa and mass companies also comes up take many of the students .The packages depends departmental wise where the highest packages goes to IT/CSE students and it also depends upon the student's performance if he/she performs well in placements then students from any branch can get a placement with decent package.

    Campus Life

    The campus life is the best here,get to know all kind of people around you as there is much diversity.There are various clubs for dancing,music,art, debating, management, photography,technical, automotive etc. and the campus is not that far from the near by malls and markets with many well know restaurants and in emergency cases a hospital is situated near by but there is a medical unit inside campus. Some professors can be bit annoying but you need to cope up with them if you want good grades.

    Others

    The overall experience here is awesome.What makes a college,a college is the students.There what you have at the first year will be totally different when you reach final year with lots of experience over many things.You will just have to open up a little in the beginning and the environment does it all.College life spent here is precious,you start up with no knowledge to getting up a job,you start up with a proposal to getting up your love,you start up with friendship and getting up a family.

    An amazing college!

    College Infrastructure

    We have a spacious campus and there are both old and new buildings. The hostels are good, each room is to be shared by three students in the first year. The washrooms of the hostel are also sufficient in number and are well maintained. The mess food is good and also both vegetarian and non vegetarian options are available. There id plenty of facilities for playing both indoor and outdoor sports. the classrooms and laboratories are well maintained and equipped.

    Academics

    We have really knowledgeable and well learned faculties who have great command over their respective subjects. Most of the faculties have pursued their education from abroad and are currently doing research in their respective fields. Needless to say their knowledge and experiences translates well into their teachings.

    Placements

    Our college offers really good placement. The placement percentage of CSE is around 98%. Even for core branches like mechanical, the placement percentage is as high as 85%. A good number of renounced companies like Amazon, JP Morgan, oracle etc visit our campus for recruitment and the packages offered are also high.

    Value for Money

    The college is not very costly, it is pretty affordable honestly. The per semester fee is around 75K but it can be less depending upon the income bracket of your family. Students with families having income below 1LPA pay around 7500 each semester, which is really affordable. The college has a pretty good ROI.

    Campus Life

    The campus life is simply amazing. We have really helpful faculties and staff members. There is a really healthy relationship between seniors and juniors and most of the seniors are really friendly and always available to provide guidance when needed. The campus is filled with all the essential amenities that one can want. There is really very little to complain about.

    Others

    I am currently in third year, and to sum up my current experience till now, it has simply been spellbinding I have gotten man opportunities to exhibit my talent in all the areas, be it sports or cultural activities. Being a part of the Cricket team and the debating society has really provided a boost to my college. One major advantage of this college is that we have a really strong alumni network, in and outside India too.

    Experience is good

    College Infrastructure

    The infrastructure is not so good . Especially the laboratories , hostel rooms and playground are not well maintained . The issue may be solved as new hostel for boys and new academic building have been constructed recently . Classroom quality is good .

    Academics

    Regarding Mechanical Engineering, the quality of teaching is good . Some of the teachers have really good concept and the way they deliver the lectures is also impressive . The curriculum for mechanical is updated . The study makes us job-ready . Professors also clarify our doubts regarding competitive exams .

    Placements

    Placements are decent for CSE and IT in NIT Durgapur. The maximum package for CSE is 40lpa (Microsoft) . Other companies like Oracle , Amazon , JP Morgan also visiit our campus for IT placement . Regarding mechanical companies like IOCL , BPCL , Tata Motors , and many more visits the campus . We also have abroad summer internship opportunities in CERN , DAAD , Mitacs .

    Value for Money

    The cost of course in any NIT is not at all justifiable. Its just too much for a government college .

    College Infrastructure

    Before coming to the college, I expected a top-notch infrastructure as the name suggests it's NIT. I must say, it's quite satisfactory but not top-notch. The classrooms are spacious and have projectors and microphones. The laboratories are well equiped with apparatus. The library have some very good books in store for us. But the cataloguing is not computerized which is a big problem. But the main problem is students do not get free wifi in campus.The SAC and the sports centres are very good.

    Academics

    The performance in academics mostly depends upon your own effort. The quality of class lectures depend upon your luck as every professor is having a different teaching style that may or may not suit you. But at the end most of them are approachable if you have any doubt. In case of ECE, it's one of the best department of NIT Durgapur with updated curriculum and excellent faculties. Also there are plenty scopes of doing projects. The rest depends on you.

    Placements

    I am in the second sem currently. So not a very clear idea of the placement scene. But I have heard from the seniors and the quality of placement is quite satisfactory. In 2019 the average salary is 9.09LPA and the highest is 32.54LPA.90+ companies visited. The placement reached almost 70-80% for all branches with mechanical and electrical being the most prominent. Top visiting companies were IBM, TCS, Cognizant, Microsoft, Amazon, Director, Vedanta and Wipro and Infosys.

    Value for Money

    The course fee is extremely high for general category-1 students (check fee pattern in NIT DGP website for further information). Its fee is nearly equivalent to a private college. The course structure is not up to the mark if we look from the huge fee perspective.

    Campus Life

    The campus is large, clean and beautiful with greenery everywhere. The stray dogs sometimes create a little bit of problem though?. Best thing is plenty of food option. And the worst thing is zone culture. There are many clubs for different activities. One can give auditions according to their choice. The bus stop is nearby but the railway station is a bit far. The campus is safe with equipment to tackle emergencies.

    Others

    The first year girls hostel is very very depressing with water and wifi problem prevailing. But the senior girls hostels are good.

    Good college with best experience.

    College Infrastructure

    We have a sapaceous campus having some old buildings replaced by new ones . Hostel are just good with proper number of bathrooms. In each room we have 3 students. We have 2 big grounds but not so well maintained. Hostels and departments are well connected with high speed WiFi. We also have badminton court,Gym etc Also lab and workshop are well equipped with required equipments. Mess food is good as it has non-vegetarian options.

    Academics

    Many of the faculties have degree from abroad and currently working on their research projects. They are helpful inside and outside the class. Their command over the subject is excellent. Our course curriculum should need to be updated especially for core branches so that we can match the level of current industrial demands.

    Placements

    Placement cell need to be reformed with good authorities so that they can manage the HRs and recruiters efficiently as placement are not only the subject matter for students. About 75% of students got placed while 90% of CSE/IT students got placed bagging with an average salary of 8LPA . We have various top MNCs like Google, Amazon etc while mass recruiters like TCS ,Infosys etc. Highest salary goes to about 40LPA by CSE/IT student.

    Value for Money

    I pay around 69k per semester as my income category is below 5LPA. students with income category less than 1LPA pay around 7500 per semester. Thus such a low fees for NIT tag and such facilities justifies worth of every penny of my money.

    Campus Life

    In the sports corner , we have 2 big grounds, badminton court,Table tennis facilities ,Gym etc we also have 3 Main fest celebrated every year - Aviskar ,Aarohan and recstacy. Also we have freshers and fairwell in which we keep the moment to decay slowly. Seniors faculties and staff members are helpful except some the staffs being rude . Also we have medical facilities available for college students free of cost

    Have a question related to NIT Durgapur ?

    Hello aspirant!

    With an 82 percentile in JEE Mains and an OBC-NCL rank of around 89,000, getting admission into NIT Durgapur will be quite difficult, especially for popular branches like Computer Science, Electronics, or Mechanical. These branches usually close much earlier for both general and OBC-NCL categories under the home state quota.

    However, you might have a slim chance in less preferred branches like Biotechnology, Metallurgical, or Mining Engineering, particularly during the CSAB special rounds. So it's still worth applying and keeping those rounds in mind. Sometimes unexpected vacancies open up.

    Apart from NIT Durgapur, you should also explore other options like private engineering colleges in West Bengal that accept JEE Main scores. A few good ones include Techno India University, IEM Kolkata, Heritage Institute of Technology, and UEM Kolkata. They have decent infrastructure and placements, and admission is generally more flexible with ranks in this range.

    If you also appeared for WBJEE, that could offer you more opportunities in state colleges.

    Stay positive and keep your options open during counselling process and don't lose hope. All the best!


    With 76.31 percentile (SC, Female, West Bengal) in JEE Main 2025 , your SC category rank is likely above 35,000 .

    Chance in Central Govt Colleges:

    • IIEST Shibpur : Low chance for CSE/IT; possible in Mining or Civil.

    • NIT Durgapur (Home State) : Tough for top branches; Civil or lower branches may be possible.

    • Newer IIITs/GFTIs : Some chances in lower branches depending on cutoff trends.

    What to Do:

    • Register for JoSAA counselling.

    • Fill as many choices as possible (include low-demand branches).

    • Keep checking official cutoffs.
