What are the perks of being from NSIT/DTU in India?
Both NSUT Delhi and DTU are prestigious institutions. I will tell you about the perks of being a student at DTU-
- Amazing student interaction- DTU students share a great bond with each other. Regardless of whether you are an introvert or an extrovert, you won’t be lonely. The crowd is really uplifting and welcoming to all the students.

- Flexible academics- DTU allows you the time and freedom to explore your interests. Whatever you wish to do, this institution gives you all the freedom to do it. As far as the curriculum is concerned, the first year is quite easy. The curriculum is common for all, and half the topics aren’t new to you. The teachers too are a bit merciful.For the remaining 3 years, the difficulty level differs with your branch. CS, IT, Software students are under much more pressure. But they have the best placements among all the branches. ECE has some strict professors but the workload is manageable. MCA, EP, PCT, and ENE are good branches for research.Mechanical is the best branch at DTU. You will get hands-on experience and the workload is very doable. The institution is located near a lot of manufacturing factories so you will get good internship opportunities.
- Campus- The campus is spread over 170 acres and is really mesmerizing. You will always have places to hangout with your friends within the college.
- Societies- DTU has various societies where you can polish your skills and hobbies in entrepreneurship, social work and art.
- College tag -The DTU tag provides internship opportunities and placement opportunities in big brands.
Both DTU and NSUT Delhi are well-renowned institutions. Joining these will be beneficial for you even after you graduate from them.
Which is better for CSE: NIT Hamirpur or NSIT/DTU?
NSIT/DTU is far better than NIT Hamirpur for CSE.
Be it academics, placement, research culture, peer group, exposure, etc. NSIT/DTU will offer better opportunities. These two institutes also have a locational advantage. Due to the favorable location, you can easily get good exposure in the CSE domain. NSIT and DTU both will offer you plenty of opportunities. However, many students prefer NSIT for their small student intake.
Why are good institutes like IIIT-Hyderabad, IIIT-Allahabad, BITS-Pilani, NSIT and DTU missing in MHRD Rankings for best engineering institutes?
The first-ever ranking of higher education institutions in India namely the Engineering, Management, Pharmacy, and Universities was released on the 4th of April 2016, by the MHRD. Many claimed that the report was misleading as they did not conduct thorough research before ranking the institutes.
Firstly, only 233 out of 720 universities participated and it's highly possible that some of the major colleges did not participate in the survey. So to get an exact picture, 100% participation is a must. One of my friends told me that his institute was a tier-3 institute with pathetic teaching faculty and placements and yet was ranked under 70. This alone is enough to point out that fallacy in the rankings. He also told me that most of the duvet conducted was done with false credentials, therefore, discrediting the rankings.
The worst part of these MHRD rankings is that the accuracy and authenticity are in the hands of the institute which can be easily manipulated. Overall I believe that The National Institutional Ranking Framework is a good idea, but poorly executed because the rankings are done on the basis of incomplete data and are often manipulated. Unfortunately, many students fall trapped in these inflated rankings and end up h choosing the wrong institute.
Is NSIT over-hyped?
To determine if NSUT Delhi is over-hyped or not we need to compare someone’s before joining and after joining. One of my friends shared what he heard about NSUT that tempted him to join it
- NSUT Delhi students get placed at tech giants like Google with 2 Crore packages
- NSUT students have a record of cracking Civil Services Exams each year.
- The students are so talented that many get selected for MIT or similar top universities.
- The institute offers many nontech opportunities too through companies like JP Morgan, Bane, Goldman Sachs, etc
- NSIT has an amazing peer group
- The cultural fest Moksha witnesses performances of top artists like Edward Maya and Akcent.
Here is what he observed after joining NSUT Delhi:
- Students get placed in tech giants like Google and Microsoft but only a handful around 4-5 students.
- Students securing good marks in UPSC are very around 10 students each year and they are extremely hardworking
- Only 2-3 extremely hardworking NSITians get selected for institutes like MIT
- The '200% placement' is not true but an exaggeration.
- The crowd quality is great for top branches like COE, IT, and ECE but not for average branches like ICE, MPAE, and BT.
- The cultural fest Moksha was quite unknown until foreign artists like Akcent, and Edward Maya performed here,
So the hype it gets is true but only to a certain extent. People do exaggerate things and some might even feel that it’s over-hyped.
What is the ratio of girls to boys at DTU and NSIT?
Here is the girls-to-boys ratio at DTU for both UG and PG courses
- UG Courses: Male-8227 and Female-1425
- PG Courses: Male-567 and Female-178
Therefore, Male to female percentage is found to be 84%:16% at DTU-Delhi Technological University.
NSUT Delhi
The gender ratio of NSUT Delhi is not so good there are only 20% of girls there and around 80% are boys.
Out of 2285 students, there are 1494 males, 393 females, and 398 students who don't want to specify their genders.
Hope the above information was of help to you.

What should I choose, NSUT Electrical or IIT Kharagpur Food and agriculture Engineering?
For your information, the Agriculture Department of IIT Kharagpur itself is around 300 acres whereas the entire IIT Delhi is sightless less than 400 acres. The huge area of IIT KGP is definitely not a boon and might actually work against you. Moreover, it’s not a brainer that Electrical Engineering seems to be a better option than Agriculture Engineering unless you have an interest in the latter. NSUT itself is a pretty decent institute and is much in demand because of its central location.
In short, I recommend you to join IIT Kharagpur (Agriculture) only under 2 circumstances,
- You are genuinely interested in the field and want it to pursue a career in the same
- You want to pursue higher studies in foreign studies.
For this, the IIT tag will be much more useful than NSUT. The entire answer is based on my opinion only and not on any data.

Which is advisable, ceramic engineering at NIT, Rourkela or mechanical engineering at VSSUT, Burla?
Here is a comparison between Ceramic Engineering at NIT Rourkela and Mechanical at VSSUT-
- Brand Name- NIT Rourkela carries the NIT tag and has a bigger brand name than VSSUT. NIT R ranks higher than VSSUT in various rankings.
- Placements- Placements for Mechanical at VSSUT are good. Core companies like TATA Steel, Hyundai, Vedanta, and Hindalco visit VSSUT for placements and offer good packages. However, due to high competition only around 40% ME students get into core companies. Around 40% of students from Ceramic at NIT Rourkela are placed in core companies. The number of students in Ceramic is small so the competition is less. Non-core companies also offer placements to Ceramic students in various sectors like Analytics, Trading, and Coaching. A few startups also visit for recruitment.
- Research Scope- NIT Rourkela has better research facilities than VSSUT. As Ceramics is related to materials, it has a lot of research scope. You can go for a foreign internship after your 3rd year or opt for an MS after your B.Tech. Getting a foreign research internship or an MS seat is easier for a NITian.
- Campus - The campuses of both are quite big. However, NIT Rourkela has a bigger, better, and more developed campus. The cleanliness and other facilities at NIT R hostels are better than VSSUT hostels.
- Fests and Other Activities- Though VSSUT has good fests, the fests of NIT R are far superior. NIT R has a great club culture. There is a club for everything at NIT R, including Robotics, Entrepreneurship, Media, Dance, Drama, Debate, Art, Music, Social Work, etc. NIT R also has a big swimming pool, two stadiums with floodlights, a Tennis court, a Basketball court, and around six gyms.
Based on these parameters, I would recommend you join Ceramics at NIT Rourkela. However, I would also suggest you talk to the alumni of both colleges before arriving at a decision.
