Is it worth doing an M.Tech from DTU?

Whether or not you should consider doing an M.Tech from DTU depends on several factors. These factors are-

• Brand Name- If you wish for the tag of a prestigious institution to be attached to your degree, DTU is the right choice for you. My sister had done her B.Tech from a college that is not well known, so she decided to go for her M.Tech from DTU to get the DTU tag.

• Placements- DTU has a good placement record. This is especially true for the CS and IT branches.

• Poor Research Environment- If you wish to go for research, DTU will disappoint you. The faculty will only be there to ‘support’, you will be on your own. The research facilities are also not up to the mark. The seniors are helpful. Overall, the environment is not very nourishing for research endeavors.

Even the teaching is not up to the mark.

• Other options- An M.Tech degree from DTU is equivalent to an M.Tech degree from a good NIT. If Delhi is the place for you, you should choose DTU or the nearest good NIT. 

• Preparation-  If you wish to go for teaching as a profession, you will get ample time to prepare for your NET/JRF during your M.Tech from DTU.

Even if you wish to go for government jobs after your M.Tech, you will get ample time for your preparation.

For hostel facilities, food, location, library, and study environment, DTU is a good university.

You must consider all these factors before choosing or not choosing DTU for your M.Tech. Overall, DTU is a prestigious and well-known university.
