It's good in terms of infrastructure and courses offered, and it's constantly getting better.

Placements: Nearly 85% of students get placed every year. Since Mathematics and Computing is a new course that opened this year, there is no such data on the average, lowest, or highest package. Top recruiting companies are Google, Amazon, Flipkart, ZS, Cisco, TCS, Oracle, and Reliance India Limited.

My Experience at NIT DURGAPUR.

Placements: You can apply for full-time roles in college (on-campus) from the 7th semester because many companies start hiring from this semester. Top companies like Microsoft, JP Morgan, BNY Mellon, Wells Fargo, etc., take students mostly from the Computer Science branch.

All about National Institute Of Technology Durgapur.

Placements: As compared to other colleges, our college is doing better, and I don't regret coming here. The placement percentage was around between 70 and 75 percent. Apple came this year and took students. Other than that, companies like Microsoft, Texas Instruments, PepsiCo, Reliance, PWC, ZS associate and many more visit. The highest package was 80 LPA. Internship is bagged by almost all students who work hard. In chemical engineering, they get internships in Bharat Petroleum, etc.

Not very satisfactory college.

Placements: I am currently a 3rd-year student pursuing B. Teach in Chemical Engineering. Companies allowing Chemical students are L&T, Reliance, HPCL, BPCL, PwC, etc. Till date (18/1/25), 53% of students from Chemical have been placed. For internships, the opportunities are fewer.
