Course Curriculum Overview :
Very systematic syllabus is prepared as per b.tech course.At the beginning of the semester after one month there is a mid semester exam and then after two month end semester exam are held.there are lot of assignment for practice and in vacation we can work on projects at Various institutes like iits, iisc etc. In final year we have to do project under professor of our department.
Internships Opportunities :
Yes, at Dsp or Cpwd stipend is not given but our college arranges companies like l &t , Honeywell, Hul, Amazon, microsoft, ntpc, dewshaw etc. who gave stipend for the internship.
Placement Experience :
Since the questioner hasn’t mentioned his/her college name (which to be honest I find quite baffling) I assume the ‘good’ private college is not among BITS,IIITs or any other college of that stature. PLACEMENTS: NIT,Durgapur has a quite a fair record of placement especially in IT Sector so if unless you’re not particularly interested about getting a job you’d probably will have one. As far as TCS is concerned one of professor from IT once jokingly told us that as long as we can tie a tie we’ll be able to secure a job at TCS(No offence). INFRASTRUCTURE: NIT,Durgapur certainly scores low on this field (Still better than most of ‘good’ private colleges. Apart from this changes many are happening INTERNSHIP: There is minuscule chance of getting an internship offer on campus still there is chance (you may get a chance in Microsoft,D. E. Shaw etc) but the NITian tag is certainly going to help in getting internship.( In fact you may get chance from startups just because you’re from IIT or NIT.) FACULTY: Needless to discus. ENVIRONMENT: This is main point that’ll truly distinguishes the institute like IITs,NITs. The mere fact the you’d live with the other students would make a huge difference. You’d learn a lot of things just because of your batch mates. OTHER FACTOR: There are other factors as well that are personal to you. So be careful with them as well.
