Placement wise, CSE at NIT Durgapur. Hands down. I would have gone for CSE given the two choices. Try to consult some recent graduates from NIT D and take the final call.

Good luck

Since youre getting ECE at NIT Durgapur, I dont think you should really consider ECE at VIT. Of course incase you get CSE at VIT, that might be the only case when still you may prefer it over NIT. However, apart from NIT Durgaput ECE, I believe at your respective CRL/Category you may get Mechanical/ Electrical/ Instrumentation/Chemical at many Top NITs, and you may prefer them instead, as well as CSE at many of the NITs like Patna as well as many GFTIs and IIITs.

Hi,

NIT Andhra is one of newly established NITs. The average package for 2019 batch in NIT Andhra was 5.87 Lakh while the NIT Durgapur has average package of around 9 Lakh. Also NIT Durgapur has better Rankings than NIT Andhra. I suggest you to go for NIT Durgapur as it is better than NIT Andhra.

Thanks!!!!

Hello,

Congratulations on getting such good college and branch options. I will give you a preference list which will comprise of all these factors:

  • Overall ranking
  • Infrastructure
  • Location/accessibility
  • Branch that you are been offered(Core/interdisciplinary)
  • Placement opportunities
  • Industry Exposure

The preference order you should consider is:

  1. Chemical Engineering at NIT Durgapur
  2. Metallurgy at IIEST Shibpur
  3. Metallurgy at NIT Durgapur

As a branch considering the current scenario and employability status I would suggest going for Chemical than Metallurgy because of the following factors:

  1. Less Competition
  2. More opportunities
  3. More PSU recruitments
  4. Wide options to go interdisciplinary
  5. Huge scope for PhD abroad

I would also like to add here that an engineering course should be very much taken with an interest in the field so I would suggest you to consider that factor and if you are not aware of the branches mentioned look them up on the internet more reliable will be to go through the syllabus on the respective colleges' website. An interest in the field is the key factor in deciding how your $ years of college will be and what opportunities you will land for yourself.

Good luck, hope it helps!!

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.

Amazing Curriculum and very good environment
