Campus placements start in the 7th semester. The Tech companies arrive first to the Campus for hiring. The CSE, ECE, EE students start their placement procedure early. Few months later, the core companies arrive. Hence allowing the rest of the departments top sit for the campus placements. Overall Campus placement is good. It's above 70% .

Placement Experience:
Students of the 7th and 8th semester, that is, the final year students are eligible for campus placements.
Every year the top companies such as Google, Microsoft Amazon, JP Morgan, etc. and core companies such as Tata Steel, Tata Motors, Tata metallics, Ashok Leyland, Aditya Birla and PSUs recruit students. Also, mass companies such as TCS and Infosys recruits a huge amount of students. One can always check the website or the Facebook page regarding campus placements for more info.
Every year 70-80% of students get placed, the others being sitting for other entrance exams for higher studies or going for research.
There is no such plan till now I have thought to do after getting my degree

Placement Experience:
7th and 8th Semester Students are eligible to sit for campus placements. Overall campus placements are decent for the college. However, the campus placement for Biotechnology is not quite good. The majority of the companies visiting the campus visit are of IT domain. So students who are interested to pursue careers even in different domains get opportunities to do so.

Remarks:
NIT Durgapur is an Institute of National Importance. Along with that, the NIT tag is very valuable after graduation. I also was getting CSE here, which was something I wanted to pursue since I was a child. The institute is close to home, so travelling to and fro is not much difficult. The hostels are a bit old but new ones are being built. Durgapur as a city has most of the facilities and amenities one can ask for, but it is not a metropolitan city, something that one needs to keep in mind. It is also pretty clean and green.

NIT Durgapur: 1 Answered Question
What is your review of NIT, Durgapur?
Shivani DasB.Tech from National Institute of Technology Durgapur (2019)
Here is a detailed review shared by my brother who completed his graduation from NIT Durgapur
- Infrastructure: Honestly, the infrastructure isn’t all that great but will provide all the basic amenities necessary for a good academic environment.
- Faculty: Most students have to resort to self-study because the professors are not very passionate about teaching. However, if you do good projects under a professor, you may be able to pursue a master's in a foreign university.
- Placements: NIT Durgapur has recorded excellent placements. This year the highest CTC offered was INR 70 LPA while the average salary offered was INR 13.64 LPA. The top recruiters included TCS Ninja, PwC, ICICI Bank, Microsoft, and many others. More than 100 recruiters participated in the placement drive and 633 students were placed.
- Opportunities: The NIT tag will open a number of opportunities for you and the alumni network is also quite extensive. You can also avail opportunities like workshops and clubs.
- Campus life: The campus life is very active with many fun-filled events like the freshers' farewell party and celebration of regional festivals. Additionally, a number of cultural and technical fests are also held.
- Administration : The administration is very slow and is not cooperative. You might face some issues.
- Location : NIT Durgapur faces no major connectivity issues. The railway station is 30 mins or 14 km away while the nearest airport is at Andal, which isn't well connected, so Kolkata Airport will be a better option. You can find the Auto rickshaw stand just at the main gate.
Overall, NIT Durgapur is a great place if you are unable to make it to IITs.
