All the classes are smart classrooms, and we have a huge central library with free Wi-Fi. The labs are well-facilitated with good computers and a super-fast network. Our college itself is well known for quality food. However, the hostels are just okay. The value for money in the hostels is poor, but the food and other amenities provided are valuable for the given money.
Although the college infrastructure is good, but I think some more advancements should be done in order to make level with some top NIT's. Their is good facility of wifi is their in NIT durgapur. Also their are sports every year in the college.
The college infrastructure of my college I. E NIT Durgapur is well maintained with all the required facilities. Their is very good wifi facility in the campus,the classrooms have samrt boards , overall the infrastructure is a 4/5...
You cannot submit your OBC NCL certificate is from Bihar in nit Durgapur ,you can still avail the home state quota benefits in NIT Durgapur under the OBC category if your state of eligibility is West Bengal; you just need to ensure your certificate is valid and recognized by the West Bengal government for admission purposes.
Obtain a obc certificate from west bengal government if both states have same eligibility criteria and ensure you must fulfill it.
Hi!
When comparing NIT Durgapur and MANIT Bhopal, several factors come into play:
1. Placement: NIT Durgapur generally has better placement statistics, especially for CSE and mechanical branches, with average packages around 11 LPA. In contrast, MANIT Bhopal has an average package of approximately 7.57 LPA.
2. Reputation: Both institutes are recognized as Institutes of National Importance, established in 1960, and offer quality engineering education. However, NIT Durgapur is often regarded slightly higher in terms of overall performance and placement opportunities.
3. Coding Culture: MANIT Bhopal has been developing a strong coding culture recently, which may benefit students interested in software-related fields
In summary, if placement and average salary are your primary concerns, NIT Durgapur may be the better choice. However, consider your specific program and interests as well.
See there are no boundaries for females, regarding Mining. So if you want to go for the mining then there is no problem being a female candidate. Now CSE in NIT DURGAPUR is quite good but the exposure to the field you will get in IIT KGP will be far more fetched. The teachers as well as the environment you will get will be far better than what you will experience at NIT Durgapur. Although the CSE is one of the most employable fields so you can go for it. But personally the environment IIT's provide the students, actually gives them the rigor to get a personality and stress management.
Now I would recommend you to choose which one you feel like but if you go for IIT's then also you can participate in different placements for CSE as well . So apart from the subject there is not a huge difference in terms of career establishment.
