- The academic building has a very nice architecture of its own and along with that there is a new auditorium which is very good and spacious.
- The hostels have a good infrastructure with a good living arrangement and the hygiene is also maintained properly.
- The classrooms are well maintained with good seating capacity and are very spacious with good lighting and air conditioning facilities.
Dislikes
- The restrictions for the first year students are very irritating and it may seem to you that you are a prisoner trapped in a cell.
- The system of mics and speakers used in the classroom is not configured properly and there should be a digital board in such large classrooms instead of the conventional chalk and blackboard.
- The ground which is at the entrance of the college should be maintained for conducting any sports activities and the gym should be well equipped with new equipment's and its size should also be increased..

- Surrounding areas, the surrounding areas are not much populated and consists of open fields so it feels boring outside the campus.

From the 3rd year, all the students become eligible for campus internships and from 4th year all students become eligible for campus placements.
The companies that visit the campus for placements are BPL, Microsoft, JP Morgan etc and most students get placement from the campus.

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.
