NIT Durgapur Reviews on Placements, Faculty & Facilities ,

Placements: Pretty good in number but not that great in offering the package. Unfair placement policy. Once placed in a non-mass company, you can not sit in any other company regardless of your current CTC. The highest salary that was offered was 35 LPA to one student, and the lowest salary offered is 3.25 LPA. This year, the placements have been a lot better than the previous years. Even the commercial banks and JEE coaching institutes have recruited the people across all the departments. IOCL and BPCL hav...

Placements: The placements of our college were great when I was in the first year (2014) but then the statistics witnessed a drop as well as the average packages offered. There were no companies coming in to recruit interns except Microsoft and Amazon, who have continued to do so every year, offering a PPO of 21 LPA and 28 LPA respectively.

Placements: Placements for mechanical engineering are moderate. Till now i.e March 2017, only 50 students out of 150 students were placed in the mechanical branch.

Companies like CGI, TATA Steel, TATA Motors, Volvo EIicher, Fleet Management, Mahindra and Mahindra, VOITH Papers, Fiat, Honda, Infosys, Vedanta, Weatherford and Visa Steel came. We haven't got ...

Placements: In terms of placement, 68% students got placed in this department with most of them being hired in mass recruiters like TCS. No core company for biotechnology have visited the campus yet. Lowest salary offered was 3.6 LPA, which isn't much considering it to be a college of national importance. Internship offers are nil so. Even if you want to apply for an internship, you won't get any help.

Though it is among one of the top ranked colleges in West Bengal as well as in India, its infrastructure is not so good. I believed that it is better than most of the state colleges (except: JU and same level as IIEST). There are only few good faculties in the department. Research environment is completely zero. No proper lab facility. Lack of software’s and hardware’s. Only thing one can get from this college is the hostel life. How to survive in and tackle bad situations, one can learn. At th...
