Among NIT Delhi, DTU, and NSUT, which one is better in terms of placement?

PG

Lives in New Delhi

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.

Among NIT Delhi, DTU, and NSIT, which one is better in terms of placement?

I assume you are a fresher and that’s why you are evaluating a college's worth through its placements. In reality, the placements released by these colleges are not precise so aren’t a credible criterion. You will be surprised to know that even top institutes like IITs are not able to achieve 100% placements. Even NSIT and DTU which show high packages of cries, are quite misleading. These high packages fail to show the situation of the average students that receive low packages and sometimes even remain unplaced. 

As for NIT Delhi, it’s still in its development phase and also has an average placement scenario. However, it has a good placement percentage and even average students manage to get a job easily. Nevertheless, I have done a comparative analysis of the placement scenario of these institutes.

Particulars

NIT Delhi (2021)

NSIT

DTU

Number of recruiters 

73

403

Highest CTC 

INR 46 LPA

-

INR 1.8 CPA

Average CTC 

INR 10.054 LPA

INR 16 LPA (median)

INR 15.16 LPA

Top Recruiters 

Adobe, Amadeus, Avalara, Code Nation, etc.

Microsoft, Amazon, Texas Instrument, Google, Qualcomm, Cisco, Hero Moto Corp, etc

Samsung, Instabase, Atlassian, Sprinklr, Amazon, Alphonso, Salesforce, Microsoft, Adobe, etc

From the above statistics it can be inferred that DTU has the best placements followed by NSIT and NIT Delhi.

What is the placement scene at DTU civil engineering?

SM
Sreejita Mukharjee Posted On : July 4th, 2023
B.Tech from Delhi Technological University (2021)

DTU Civil Engineering is one of the highly regarded civil departments in India with decent placements and opportunities. Here are a few points that will convince you further to join this branch

  • DTU Civil Engineering has a relatively easier syllabus in comparison to other branches. You can maintain a high CGPA and even make it into IIMs. You will also have better opportunities than students in non-core companies.
  • The light syllabus gives you enough time to prepare for IES/GATE examination and secure excellent government jobs.
  • Civil Engineering at DTU has decent placements and this year the average package offered was INR 8.845 LPA. If you have a decent CGPA and communication skills, you can easily secure a package in the range of 5-7 lakhs.
  • Among other future aspects of this program, you can also pursue MS from Stanford as there is very less competition compared to computer science.
  • Although your package will be inferior to CS students, a government job in civil engineering offers you a comfortable and contented life,

Please note that DTU has no branch change policy so choose Civil Engineering only if you are genuinely interested in it.

What is it like to graduate from DCE/DTU?

TA
Tithi Aggrawal Posted On : July 4th, 2023
Lives in New Delhi

As a graduate of DTU, my sister feels surreal reminiscing about her time at the college. College life is lively and you are always busy with something. There ain’t any compulsion to attend classes and you can get involved in a lot of extracurriculars in addition to enjoying the beauty of the campus. She was amazed by the quality of her peers and loved spending time with intellectual people. 

The college days are a blend of good and bad experiences. Even the bad experiences have goodness behind them and you are well aware of this and that’s what makes you proud of being a part of this institute. You strive hard to survive and leave with great life lessons, real knowledge, and plentiful skills. 

The reality hits you when your last semester exams end and you wait for your job to start. You realize that you won’t ever be able to meet such people and make such memories again. Soon, you get busy with your new life and make new friends. Ghr occasional meet-ups with old friends make you nostalgic but you are able to move on. 

After a few years, you realize that because of your initial struggles and what DTU made you, you can now live a comfortable life. You see the thin line between IITians and Non-IITians fading away into oblivion and feel proud of your college. You keep climbing the ladder higher and achieving great heights. Eventually, you adapt yourself to your new life and the occasional talks about DTU fill your heart with warm memories.

Is DTU better than some IITs?

TA
Tithi Aggrawal Posted On : July 6th, 2023
Lives in New Delhi

It depends on which generation of IITs you are comparing DTU with. If you are comparing it with old IITs like IIT Delhi, Madras, Kanpur, Kharagpur, Guwahati, Roorkee, and Bombay, then the answer is no, DTU stands nowhere near them. 

However, comparing DTU to the new IITs like IIT Hyderabad, Indore, Mandi, Jodhpur etc you will find that DTU fairs better in terms of alumni network, and has better placements than new IITs. You can say that DTU roughly lies somewhere between the old and the new IITs. 

Within India, you will find DTU to have a strong brand name because of its rich legacy of being the mother institution of IIT Delhi and NSIT. But internationally, only IITs enjoy recognition and hardly any foreign companies are aware of the DTU brand name.

Which is better, EE at DTU or ICE at NSIT?

TA
Tithi Aggrawal Posted On : July 4th, 2023
Lives in New Delhi

There is no better branch between EE at DTU and ICE at NSIT. It's all about preferences and inclinations. To help you make an informed decision let's talk about both the branches individually

EE at DTU

  • EE at DTU is core electrical engineering wherein you are taught concepts related to power, grids, electrical machines, etc.
  •  For placements, core companies like BHEL and companies in the energy field visit the campus. 

ICE at NSIT

  • This branch has Control Engineering concepts along with electrical, electronics, and computer engineering.ICE has very light coursework and it's easy to maintain a good CGPA. 
  • You also get enough time for your passions and extracurriculars.
  • IT giants like Facebook, Google, etc. Don't allow ICE students to sit for placements. 
  • Core companies that recruit students of this branch include Qualcomm, Texas Instruments, and others. 
  • Non-tech companies like BCG, Bain, and JPMC allow all students to sit for placements.
  • NSIT has a larger batch size and thus the competition here is less than DTU for placements but it still it cannot match the brand value of DTU.

In all, both DTU and NSIT have similar opportunities and placements so with the right mindset you can do well at both colleges.

How do you score 80% plus marks in NSIT/DTU (formerly DCE) ? WHAT is the secret behind the diligent life long toppers?

TA
Tithi Aggrawal Posted On : August 21st, 2023
Lives in New Delhi

One of my friends faced a lot of issues in the initial years at NSUT. His aggregate for the first 2 years was 50%. He then decided to work hard and made a new strategy. By the end of 4 years, his aggregate increased to 80%. Currently, he is pursuing MS in computer science at the University of Maryland, College Park, USA. Initially, he was distracted by the freedom of college life and the dilemma of choosing MS vs MBA. 

Firstly, you need to focus on your studies and target a high score. Stop paying heed to people who say college life is all about fun. College is about realizing a dream and setting plans to achieve them. So, give up on distractions and start working hard to get good grades. He realized that scoring 80+ in college is possible for everyone but because of the ongoing activities and distractions, it becomes almost impossible.

In simple words, all you need is to find the passion within you that will drive you to perform at your level best. Find a good company that motivates you instead of mocking you.

The number of recruiters varies every year and affects the placement percentage of all the branches of DTU. Approximately the placement percentage of DTU CSE varies from 88 % - 93%. Even colleges better than DTU find it difficult to maintain a 100% record. Students who have poor grades or backlogs usually get rejected while many top graders opt for higher studies generally in foreign universities.

Here are DTU branch-wise placements
