Is the scope of IIT Delhi textile engineering good?

DS
Dipti Sinha Posted On : April 1st, 2023
B.Tech from Indian Institute of Technology, Delhi (2022)

My sister was a student at IIT Delhi in Textile Engineering and shared the disappointing experience that made her regret her decision a lot. The department is in its infancy and is the least demanded branch. Likewise, it offers the least average package at around INR 13 LPA and the lowest at INR 6 LPA.

  • Opportunities for a good job and package are scarce and the highest pay offered is even less than the pay of your friends with the lowest marks in schools
  • You will have to work hard and grasp a lot of concepts to maintain a good CPI only then you can target an MBA
  • The curriculum is rigid and does not challenge your learning and problem-solving capabilities.
  • The worth of the branch is so less that even your IIT tag does not come to your rescue during placements.
  • Most students go for non-core jobs roles like consultancy, data analysis or coding.
  • Few or no core job offers are made to the students of this branch

The branch does not do justice to the institute's brand name and thus I strongly recommend you against joining Textile Engineering at IIT Delhi.

How is textile engineering in NIT Jalandhar?

AA
Anamica Agarwal Posted On : January 4th, 2023
B.Tech in Production and Industrial Engineering, Dr. B. R. Ambedkar National Institute of Technology, Jalandhar ( NITJ ) (Graduated 2018)

When it comes to labs and professors, they are knowledgeable but strict. Backlog is much more likely, and attendance is extremely important. Now if you look at the placement record. In recent years, placement has been ideal. About half of the batch is being placed. 

Textile engineering has a placement rate of 54.17%. Students are mostly placed in core companies such as Trident, Reliance Manufacturing, Reliance Petrochemical, Nahar Textile, and others.

What is it like to study Textile Technology at IIT Delhi?

SM
Subhashree Modak Posted On : April 3rd, 2023
B.Tech. from Indian Institute of Technology Delhi (2020)

IIT Delhi Textile department is still in its infancy and unfortunately, is one of the least demanded branches. The scope and opportunities offered are meager. To put it rightly, it does not do justice to the brand name of IIT Delhi.

  • During the orientation itself, it’s revealed how almost the entire batch wants to get their branch changed eventually
  • The department is located far away from the main campus and other major departments and this segregation is quite demotivating 
  • The course material is not up to the standards of IIT Delhi and the tremendous coursework just adds to the misery 
  • The students mug up the concepts mostly rather than understanding them 
  • The lab work is monotonous and the research opportunities are limited
  • The teachers are extremely retarded investing zero effort in increasing the quality of teaching or making it more lively 
  • Most importantly, the placement scenario of this department is pathetic with no good company ready to recruit students for this branch

Many people think that this branch might somehow open opportunities for them if they involve themselves in extracurricular activities and so but then the entire purpose of the department is negated. Still, for the most desperate, this might be the only option. So, it’s advisable to go to this branch only if it’s the last option you have.

Is it risky to take textile engineering in iit delhi with a motive of department change?

DS
Dipti Sinha Posted On : April 3rd, 2023
B.Tech from Indian Institute of Technology, Delhi (2022)

Department change is a very common debate among IITians so let me state some important points regarding the same to answer your question in a better way.

  • Department change happens after the end of the first year during which students of every branch study similar courses
  • The change is based on your CGPA and category 
  • On an estimated 50 students from the General Category and 15 from the reserved category are allowed to change their departments
  • CGPA should be above 8 to be eligible for branch change

Now if we roughly calculate 6-7 students from a textile branch out of 55 are eligible for branch change. The competition seems to be tough and you are required to maintain a certain CGPA to target a certain branch. The CG required to transfer to the following branches are

  • CS: 9.6
  • Metallurgy: 9.6
  • EE: 9.4
  • Mechanical: 8.8
  • Chemistry: 8.4

If you are confident that you can achieve the required CG with the given competition, you can take them risk. But hear me out, even if you don’t manage to do so, remember branches can be switched in MTech too. Moreover, doing BTech from IIT Delhi will only open more opportunities and won't become a disappointment.

Can a student in textile engineer do a minor degree in Computer Science in IIT Delhi?

SM
Subhashree Modak Posted On : April 5th, 2023
B.Tech. from Indian Institute of Technology Delhi (2020)

Top engineering colleges like IIT Delhi, NSIT, School of Planning and Architecture, Delhi, College of Art, Delhi, and even the famous Faculty of Management Studies have branched out from DCE. Major differences between these Engineering institutes include

  • Being the oldest, DTU has the largest alumni base ever more than NSIT and IIT Delhi.
  • All three have different statuses; DTU in itself is a university, NSIT is under the umbrella of Delhi University while IIT Delhi is an institution affiliated with the central government.
  • The companies visiting these institutes are similar in terms of roles and packages offered with DTU and IIT Delhi students getting offers from companies like McKinsey, Bain, etc. while NSIT students getting offers from Tech giants like Facebook, Google, and Microsoft.
  • IITians enjoy the brand name that comes attached to their degrees. This brand name is superior to that of DCE.

Ultimately students prefer IITs over other engineering colleges mainly because they are government bodies and have earned global recognition.

Should I choose the NIT Jalandhar textile engineering or the JSS Noida IT branch?

RA
Rishav Arora Posted On : December 7th, 2022
B.Tech from Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur (IIT KGP) (Expected 2024)

If you are interested in IT Industry then without a second thought go for JAS Noida IT branch. This is because you cannot opt for upgrading your branch from textile to IT in NIT Jalandhar.

But if are interested in any other branch go for textile in NIT Jalandhar.

Taking textile at NIT Jalandhar will give you an additional benefit of rectifying your choice is you find you want to change the branch.

On of my friends told me of a person who ranked 60000 in JEE Mains. He got IPE in spot round, scored a CGPA of 9 and got into CSE. Such miracles require a lot of hard work. Being an NITian won’t hurt you in the long run.

Is it worth joining the textile branch at NIT Jalandhar, or should I take a drop?

AG
Akshu Gupta Posted On : December 7th, 2022
B.tech in textile technology from Dr. B. R. Ambedkar National Institute of Technology, Jalandhar ( NITJ ) (Graduated 2018)

The general answer would be no, it’s not recommended you join the textile branch at NIT Jalandhar. However, you can join it under certain scenarios like:

  • If you have plans of moving abroad and pursuing it further. Because in India there is little scope for this course.

  • If you are planning to change your branch after a year by internal sliding. But for this, you should get an excellent CGPA (above 9).

  • If you plan to sit for CAT or UPSC then the branch does not really matter.

  • If you don’t want to drop out.

In every other case, I’d recommend you join a lower-ranked NIT but in a better branch than textile. Don’t just go for rankings. The branch is also crucial.

Which is better: DTU CS or IIT Delhi textile?

AB
Akriti Banerjee Posted On : April 6th, 2023
lives in New Delhi

While many might suggest you go for DTU CS, and not run after the IIT tag, my opinion may vary. Had I been in your place, I would have chosen IIT Delhi any day over DTU because the exposure, opportunities, brand value, research opportunities, and top-notch education that come with it are worth a few boring Textile Courses.

Most importantly, IIT Delhi allows you to take electives in the field of your choice and you can always opt for CS electives for better placements. Some common courses undertaken by students who opt for non-core placements are

  • Data Structures
  • Algorithms
  • Operating Systems
  • Computer Architecture

With the right balance of basic textile education and these courses, you can avail of both, CS education as well as IIT tag. However, you will have to study some courses in which you are least interested, thereby wasting your time. This sacrifice is justifiable when you keep in mind the CS faculty of IIT Delhi which is far better than DTU.

Ishank Gupta Posted On : February 27th, 2023
Studied at FORE School of Management

Department of Textile and Fibre Engineering was established on 1st January 2018 for developing and undertaking research on textiles for specific end uses. However, textile engineering is a relatively new and least opted branch.

When compared to other branches, it has the least average placement package. A sum of placement statistics of textile can be inferred from the table below 

Particulars 

Statistics 

Highest CTC

INR 1.5 CPA

Lowest CTC

INR 6 LPA

Average CTC

INR 13 LPA

Most students go for consultancy, analyst or coding profiles as very few core Textile Companies visit the campus for recruitment.

The major companies that hire students from this specialization are

  • Accenture
  • Barclays Bank
  • Capgemini
  • Deloitte
  • Flipkart
  • GAIL(Gas AuthorityOf India Ltd)
  • Hindustan Unilever
  • ICICI Securities
  • JP Morgan Chase

In all truth, Textile technology at IITD does not do justice to the name and fame of the institute. Don’t choose this course just for the IIT tag as you will end up really disappointed.
