NIT Durgapur Campus: Photos, Virtual Tour

The infrastructure is overall average. There are academic blocks dedicated to each department. The quality of academic blocks is good. All the lab facilities related to each department are there in their respective academic blocks. There is one large new auditorium where we have many different students’ related activities is done. Medical facility is also provided in case of emergency. Nescafe is the area, which I like the most. Classrooms are aided with technical equipment like projector and digital board.

Campus life in NIT Durgapur is average. There are around 5k students including from 1st year to 4th year. There are numerous clubs in our institute such as sports club, SAE India, EDC, CCA, and many more. I am in Civil society. There are many fests for tech and cultural.

Campus size is pretty good (187 acres) with almost all the basic things of daily use available in the campus. All the classrooms in the New academic buildings are air conditioned and have a seating capacity of about 250 students. There is central library in the campus itself which has a lot of books and study rooms for students. There are 2 sports field, 1 basketball court and 1 tennis court with many other sports equipment available. The medical unit in the campus is quite satisfactory and functional 24x7.

Overall campus life is good. There are many clubs that organize many events every year. These clubs take audition for selecting students. These auditions usually consist of 4-5 rounds (which may even change depending on the club which is taking audition). There are 2 annual fests which are organized every year. One is the technical fest, Aarohan and other is the cultural fest, Recstacy. Campus life is amazing as one gets to meet people from different parts of India and make friends who are always there to help you.Read Full Review

The infrastructure is old and while there are canteens, sports, activity centre, and a new academic building in addition to department buildings. They all seem to be worse for no apparent reason. Basically in my opinion, everything could be much better with the same resources and a little bit more effort can be put to improvise the scenario.

In general campus life is pleasant with a lot of clubs, although the novelty of those clubs and fests wears off as you're promoted to higher years. Personally, a lot of these organizations and activities lack true purpose, and a lot of the crowd just exists without any clear ambitions. A naïve rush to 'improve' things falls short. The incentive issue comes into play where there is seldom. Any reason to improve: the clubs, the fests or the events. It seems to be a superficial layer of activity without any underlying mission or purpose worth investing your time into, sacrificing your academics.Read Full Review
