How do NSIT and DTU campus compare?
DTU has a better campus than NSIT in terms of infrastructure and facilities. DTU campus is well-maintained and even the unused areas are treated as parks and are great spots for taking a break. NSIT has a lot of unused land that is left untamed and resembles a jungle bringing down the overall appearance of the campus. NSIT also is home to insects and snakes which makes the campus environment unsafe.
DTU has a huge auditorium that can house 400+ people while NSIT auditorium is pretty small. DTU has a massive OAT(Open-air theatre) and also a mini-OAT. The classrooms in DTU are designed in an elevated style and most classrooms are fully air-conditioned. DTU canteen is bigger than NSIT's although both colleges have Amul shops. NSIT has poor sports facilities.DTU is home to a huge batch and thus has huge academic blocks although the accommodation facilities are highly lacking.
Overall DTU campus is more appealing and well-maintained than the NSIT campus and also enjoys better connectivity.

What is it like being a Software Engineering undergrad at DTU?
DTU Software Engineering is just an alternative to CSE, the prospects and curriculum being quite similar. The branch has many good professors under whom students dream to work. The professors are actively involved in research work and have a few publications. But the classroom sessions are poorly held and do no good to the students in uplifting their academics. With the right set of specialized skill sets that align with certain US companies, you can even get the opportunity to work there
The branch will give you enough time to determine your inclinations. The lab facilities of the branch are top notch and the systems are updated frequently. However, the software is obsolete so it's better to carry your own laptops. You can use IDEs and tools that are at par with recent trends to make the most of the lab sessions.
At DTU, it's your own willingness, passion, and determination that drives you to excel. You should try your best to stand out in the crowd especially if you are targeting foreign companies.
Which should should I choose to pursue computer science: DTU, NSIT, IIIT Delhi, IIIT Bangalore, IIIT Allahbad, and NITs except Trichy, Warangal, or Suratkal?
We need to consider a number of factors before choosing one college from DTU, NSUT, IIIT Delhi, IIT Bangalore, IIIT Allahabad, and NITs.
- Quality of education: In terms of academics, IIIT Delhi serves the best. The teachers are genuinely interested in teaching and encouraging students to research work. In DTU and NSUT students are expected to cope with the curriculum on their own.
- Campus life: DTU offers the best resources and campus life to its students followed by NSUT and IIIT Delhi
- Peer group: You will find the best peer group that is passionate about CS at IIIT Delhi and NSUT.
- Placements: This aspect is quite arguable because there is the general scenario as well as the statistics to consider. Generally, DTU fares better than NSUT and IIIT Delhi but if you look at the statistics, IIIT Delhi is the best among these colleges followed by NSUT and DTU.
- Brand Name and Alumni: In this aspect, DTU is the clear winner.

- Higher Studies: IIIT Delhi has a CGPA system while NSUT and DTU have a percentage system. A CGPA of 8.75-9 is considered pretty good while even a percentage of 79% is not. So IIIT Delhi students face a certain advantage during shortlisting. Additionally, their research work and skills add to their overall profile and increase their chances of admission to top universities.
Overall, the best option for you is IIIT Delhi considering the above aspects.
Which has a beautiful campus, DTU NSIT or IIITD?
As a student of DTU, I can tell you about its campus. Once you enter DTU, you will be mesmerized by its beauty. It has a lush green campus with beautiful blossoms. Apart from the natural beauty of this place, the classrooms, labs, canteen area, and shops are in good condition as well. During the rainy season, the surroundings become even more captivating. Students try quite hard to get admission into DTU and NSUT Delhi because of their amazing campus life. My friend tried really hard to get admission into DTU.
Thus, DTU has a beautiful vibrant campus and its students share a common opinion in this respect. NSUT Delhi and IIITD are good colleges as well. You should talk to their alumni to find out more about them.
On what grounds are IIIT Delhi and DTU different?
I am a student of DTU. Regardless, I’ll draw an unbiased comparison between these two colleges-
- Faculty- IIIT Delhi has the best faculty among all the engineering colleges in JAC Delhi.
- Research- IIITD is more research-oriented. If you aim for a career in research, go to this college.
- Curriculum- IIIT Delhi has a better curriculum, but academic pressure is way higher over there.
- Fee- DTU is much more affordable. But if you secure a scholarship at IIITD, things will get much better.
- Fests and college life- DTU is superior in this respect. It has better fests and college life.
Both the colleges are really good. Choose IIIT Delhi if you want to focus solely on academics. But for a more balanced college life, choose DTU.
Both the colleges will offer you ample resources. It is up to you to make the most of those opportunities.
Is it worth it to drop a year for IIT or the BITs if you are in DTU/NSIT?
It is a very personal choice. However, I can tell you about my brother’s case. He got into NSUT Delhi and decided to take a drop for the IITs. When he looks back at his decision, he regrets it a lot. It takes a toll on your physical and mental health when you obsess so much about something. My brother doesn’t regret that his Engineering studies got delayed by a year. What bothers him is how he neglected his physical and mental health, broke his connection with friends, and rarely went out, all because he wanted to get into the IITs.
Even after that, he couldn't get into the IITs and decided to go for ECE at NSUT Delhi. His mental state resulted in poor academic performance during the first two years of his Engineering life. Eventually, he got over it and worked hard during the remaining years of his B.Tech.
DTU/NSIT are pretty good colleges and offer students multiple opportunities and good placements. If you work hard, you can do great even without an IIT/BITS tag. According to my brother, no institution is worth the mental toll that a drop year takes on you.
What is the current actual condition of NIT Delhi? Is it good or not? If I choose NIT Delhi over IIITD and NSIT/DTU, will it be worthwhile for me or not?
No, it’s not wise to choose NIT Delhi over prestigious Delhi colleges like NSIT, DTU, and IIIT Delhi. Your first preference should be NSIT or DTU followed by IIIT Delhi. So, NIT Delhi should be your last preference among these colleges.
NSIT/DTU are well-established institutes while NIT Delhi and IIITD are still in their infancy stage. However, because of their central location, all these 4 colleges have a decent placement scenario. Most IT companies from Gurugram, Noida, and Delhi visit all of these campuses. NT Delhi operates from a temporary campus N.I.L.E.R.D. located in a remote place, Narela. Most faculty lack experience and won’t be of much help in projects.
The hostel and classroom facilities however are pretty good and a 24/7 Internet facility is provided to the students. The college is remotely located so it will be difficult to find eateries serving decent quality food. Being new, the campus has an active club culture and lab facilities.
Overall, I feel NIT Delhi fails to offer the exposure and opportunities that other Delhi engineering colleges offer so should be your last choice.
