Questions Asked On DTU, New Delhi

From what I have heard, VIT Vellore is a money-making machine that accepts donations and admits every kind of student irrespective of their academic profile. The rankings that claim VIT to be better than IITs are baseless and forged. Don’t fall into their trap and talk to the students directly. You will find most of them saying that the professors are underqualified, have no interest in teaching and the academic environment is deteriorating. VIT is just a private university like Amity that is attracting students through fake advertisements and donations.

I would recommend you go for a government institute like DTU instead that has a genuine brand value. 

My friend had to choose between DTU CSE and NSIT CSE and eventually went for DTU CSE after considering the below points

• Brand name: DTU enjoys better recognition both inside and outside Delhi because of its rich legacy while NSIT is hardly known outside Delhi.
• Alumni Network: Being one of the oldest technical institutes it has an extensive alumni network whereas NSIT was established much later and its alumni pool is small.
• Placements: Both NSIT and DTU give an edge to each other in terms of placements and their average package is quite similar. DTU average package stands at INR 15.16 LPA while NSIT median package stands at INR 16 LPA. However, DTU has a larger batch size so maintaining this average package in itself proves that it's better. 
• Location: NSIT enjoys a better location and has easy access to shopping centers and eateries. It also attracts a better crowd than DTU. 
• Campus: DTU has a better maintained and facilitated campus than NSUT. NSIT has a lot of unused land which has become a breeding ground for wild animals.
• Sports Facility: DTU is a clear winner here with its huge sports complex and indoor Badminton courts.
• Research culture: Both colleges have poor research culture so if you are a research enthusiast, choose IIIT Delhi instead.

The ultimate decision depends on personal factors like distance from home and other inclinations.

NIT Delhi is very young, and it can not be compared to NSUT and DTU. Now the better option among these two depends on your branch choice. If you want to opt for CoE/IT/ECE, NSUT has slightly better placements in these branches. But in core branches (Civil, Electrical, Mechanical, Poly), DTU has a really good placement record. Moreover, DTU has a great campus life.

MNNIT Allahabad offers good CSE. In terms of opportunities, MNNIT CSE is at par with top NITs (and even some IITs). As for course curriculum and faculty, these are almost equally good at all top engineering colleges. During 2023 placements, the highest package for CSE at MNNIT was 1.35 CPA, and the average package was 27.57 LPA. SE is comparatively easier than CSE or IT, but it offers similar placement opportunities to its students. SE students are eligible for companies seeking CSE/IT students. 

Both the colleges are highly reputed, and you can choose either of them for your B.Tech studies.

NIT Trichy is probably more known to the general public across India. It has better faculty, research opportunities and infrastructure compared to DTU. On the other hand, DTU has a locational advantage, and it offers better exposure to its students. 

Both the colleges have a great coding culture and good placements. Both are excellent institutes with a lot of prestige. You must choose between them on the basis of branch and other personal preferences.

There are many reasons why some students prefer CSE at NSIT to CSE at DTU. I have listed some strong reasons below:

• NSIT has a smaller batch size which in turn means the level of competition faced by the students is comparatively low. You can get good job profiles way more easily than at an institute with a higher intake like DTU.
• NSIT awards you a degree from DU, one of the most globally recognized and reputed universities. This helps you pursue higher studies in foreign countries easily. 
• Quite a few NSIT students are able to secure high packages in top companies like Facebook while DTU because of its large batch size has only a few that get 1 cr+ packages.
• One of the major reasons why someone would prefer NSIT over DTU is that it’s quite difficult to get a hostel in DTU especially if you are a resident of Delhi.

If you consider these reasons valid, go for NSIT instead of DTU.
