What Students Say

Likes

The campus is beautiful and the ambience is great. I love the vibe and fest here.
The cultural clubs are great and very active they organise some of the most spectating display in our campus.
The classroom are great and faculties are really caring. They provide all the help we need.

Dislikes

The director of college is very strict and suppress students
Water drainage system is little poor so heavy rain can affect for a short time.
Maintenance is very low and they care very less about the cleanliness

Course Curriculum Overview

I chose this course because my all-India rank in jee main was 28k. So I was alloted to this branch. Also, Durgapur is an industrial area so mechanical engineering has a great placement opportunity. The student ratio in our branch is 1:3 ( female: male). Here faculty is great. The professors are highly qualified and they published an enormous number of books. Our total semester is under 6 months so nearly mid-term exam happens in 2.5 months after that end sem happens nearly after 2.5 months. it's easy to pass an exam if we follow the class. The question was not that hard.

Class Size: 94Course Fees: INR 75000 per year

Internships Opportunities

3.5

We can do internships in IITs and also research internships under our faculty. Also, there are companies like JP Morgan PWC that provide internship also Tata Metals provide great internship here. There are many projects. It can be IT-related or core-related but good academics always help in both.

Placement Experience

From the final year, students are eligible for placement. Microsoft, JP Morgan, Accenture, PWC, and Tata Steel were the biggest companies that recruited from our college. They took 40 people each from campus. The highest placement was off campus at 1.3 cr. And the average is above 10 lpa. More than 80 percent of students were placed. I'll try to get a placement after my degree.

Fees and Financial Aid

There is no fee hike and the fee is just like other NITs. There was a division of fee dues to caste and income differences. The classification is under 1lakh under 5 lakh under lakh yearly income. There was a scholarship for girls and students who are financially weak can opt for the Swami Vivekananda scholarship. They provide 60000 rupees per year.

Campus Life

4.5

Our annual fest is RECSTACY. our tech fest is Arohan which was held in March month. There was an enormous library which was filled with books and there was a study room facility available. The classroom was neat and Air-conditioned. There is an indoor badminton court table tennis court. Also football field as well as volleyball ground. There is a basketball ball ground cricket practice net and a long tennis ground.

Hostel Facilities

3.5

Our hostel is huge and has the facility of lift and fire safety. Each room has 3 beds 3 cupboards and 3 tables and chairs. Hostel food quality is decent sometimes is degraded and sometimes it is very tasteful. Hostel registration process first we had to pay hostel fees before we boarded the hostel and were allotted rooms according to line and we had to submit the pay slip for hostel mess fees. Locality there are plenty of people who will provide rooms for an affordable price just outside of campus.

Hostel Fee: INR 7000 per year

Admission

Eligibility criteria for the general category is to have nearly 12000 India rank in Jee Mains for CSE and less than 30000 rank for mechanical in Jee Mains. The admission process was through the online Chanakya portal. We had to submit our board mark sheet. And jee mains report along with photo signature and front page of passbook. Then we had to pay the hostel fees. There is a reservation quota and also a female quota. The old portal of our college was so slow. Sometimes payment issue was found but the new portal is fast and reliable so it is already an improvement.

Likes

Supportive Faculty - The professors are highly qualified, approachable and always willing to help students
Free wifi support - There are free wifi support for both student and faculty
Fee Structure - It is very affordable and low compared to other colleges in the region

Dislikes

Placement support is below average, and most studnets have to apply for off campus jobs independently, which is really pathetic in the era of ai where getting a job as a fresher is so difficult
There is no dedicated support or placment cell initiative to help studnets land meaningful summer internships or any kind of internships

Placement Experience:

Students become eligible for campus placements starting from the 7th semester. For placement drives, we have to visit the main campus, Techno Main Salt Lake (TMSL). Since students from other Techno India campuses and branches also participate, the competition is extremely high. In the 2025–2026 academic year, fewer companies visited. Only two companies, Dronahost and WishCare, visited our specific campus directly. The remaining drives—mostly service-based companies like TCS and EY, along with a few startups—were conducted at the main campus. The remaining drives mostly service based companies like TCS, EY etc and quite a few startups has visited to main campus. The package they offered mostly in between 3.5lpa - 6 lpa. Furthermore the selection process of those startups is quite rigorous often consisting of upto 5 rounds of interview, two technical rounds with two technical interviews, and HR round My plans after getting the degree is either pursue an MBA or preparing for govt jobs

There are many fun events that happen in the college

Dislikes

From the 3rd year onwards , students become eligible for internships and stepping in 4th yr , students get eligible for campus placement.

LIFE AT NIT DURGAPUR

I applied for multiple NITs During Josaa Counselling but my top 5 suitable choice according to my home location and considering other limiting factors was NIT Rourkela, NIT Silchar, NIT Durgapur, NIT Patna and IIEST Shibpur. Apart from these, I have also Applied for Calcutta University and Jadavpur University. I have got approval from NIT DGP,Calcutta University and Jadavpur University. But I have chosen NIT because of better Placement records and better campus Life. Moreover it's an Institution of of National Importance and Hold a good NIRF rank. So I preferred this choice above others. I wasn't rejected from the above colleges, but simply i didn't get the eligible rank for them. And the 3 which I got, i choosed the best among them. The Admission process of NIT DGP was through Josaa and CSAB counselling. The College and the Branch will be alloted to you according to your rank in the JEE MAINS Examination. The Closing rank of this exam in 2025 of General Category for the lowest Branch in BTech is 63387. The overall admission process for the college, apart from hostel allotment, was completely online. 14-15 documents were to be submitted in pdf format in the specific website provided. The Process was overall smooth and Well Managed....Read More

NIT DURGAPUR - A Detailed Breakdown

I applied for GURU GHASIDAS UNIVERSITY, BILASPUR (a GFTI in chattishgarh) and i got an secured seat in the CSE department too of that college too in my 2nd round of JOSAA councelling but in the CSAB round 1 i got a seat in NIT Durgapur in the Biotechnology department. I was a NEET aspirant but due to scam of NEET 2024 i was unable to get a good rank and secure a good government medical college and i was passionate about biology from my childhood so i chose Biotechnology and obviously an NIT is far more better than any GFTI be it in terms of placement, infrastructure, environment or any other things. I applied for some higher prioritized brances too in my choice filling but due to poor rank i wasn't able to secure a seat there. Students get seats in NIT(s), IIIT(s) and in GFTI (s) through JOSAA (a counselling process of 5 rounds) and CSAB (a counselling process of 2 rounds) and in IIT (s) through JOSAA counselling only. Students secure their desired seats based on their merits with the rank that they obtained in their JEE Mains exams and JEE ADVANCED (for IIT ) although admission is based on ranks but the authority have criterias like you have to score 75% marks in maths ,physics and chemistry in your Boards exams or you should be among top 20 percentile students of your class 12th board exams there is a separate process of admission too for the foreign students and NRI students althogh the fees structure is very high for their courses.The overall counselling process was good and seamless but after allotment of the college, the document verification and fees submission process is a little hectic....Read More
