NIT Durgapur: 2 Answered Questions

How is ECE in IIIT Allahabad? Is it better than NIT Durgapur?

Ankita BoseB.Tech. Metallurgical Engineering, NIT Raipur (2018)

IIIT Allahabad is unquestionably superior to NIT Durgapur. But this isn't to say that NIT Durgapur isn't good. 

  • If you want a career in ECE, don’t go for NIT Durgapur. ECE branch at NIT Durgapur does not have good reviews. 
  • However, if you want to go for an MBA after your BTech, then NIT Durgapur can be a good option. 
  • In the ICT sector, IIIT Allahabad holds a special position for ECE and this institute specializes in the IT sector. I have a few friends at the institute who vouches for the course. 

Here’s a brief comparison of the ECE branch at these two institutes.

Parameters 

IIIT Allahabad

NIT Durgapur

Average CTC

43 LPA

32.54 LPA

Highest CTC

20.83 LPA

9.09 LPA

Fees

5.56 lakhs

Apart from that, just like NITD, IIIT Allahabad is an institute of national importance that is entirely funded by the Ministry of Human Resources Development. 

So, for ECE, IIIT Allahabad is definitely the better option.

Which is better, IIIT, Allahabad for ECE or NIT Durgapur for ECE if I have a general 12k rank in the JEE Mains?

Tuhina BoseB.Tech in IT at Indian Institute of Information Technology, Allahabad (2020)

Before deciding on any institute you should analyze it based on different parameters. Check if the college provides good facilities like hostels equipped with a good and stable internet connection, good food, satisfactory infrastructure, and the most important, a good campus placement drive. Both IIIT Allahabad and NIT Durgapur offer above-average facilities. Here is a brief outline of the institute.

Companies Visited

Infosys, TCE, Amazon, etc.

Highest Package

33 LPA

If we look at the placement scenario closely, we can see that IIIT Allahabad has a better placement record and gets more companies. They also provide a higher package to their students. This does not make NIT Durgapur bad. Even NIT Durgapur provides good placements as well as opportunities for higher studies as well.

Both the colleges have a similar kind of course curriculum and nobody can force you to study.

It is not fair to compare the two universities because both of them are unique in themselves and have their charm. So, choose according to your convenience.
