First of all, congratulations on securing such an impressive rank in JEE Main 2024. I am a second year B.Tech IT student at DTU.
20,000 is a pretty good rank and it will open ample branch options for you, even more if you are a Delhi Candidate. I have mentioned below the previous year JEE MAIN cutoff for B.Tech admissions at DTU-
JEE MAIN 2023 Cutoff for B.Tech admissions at DTU (General Category)
| Branch | Non-Delhi Candidate | Delhi Candidate |
|---|---|---|
| B.Tech Computer Engineering | 6,224 | 13,345 |
| B.Tech Information Technology | 8,047 | 16,364 |
| B.Tech Software Engineering | 10,742 | 19,967 |
| B.Tech Mathematics and Computing | 14,191 | 22,844 |
| B.Tech Electronics & Communication Engineering | 17,427 | 31,328 |
| B.Tech Electrical Engineering | 26,778 | 45,966 |
| B.Tech Mechanical Engineering | 34,761 | 58,304 |
| B.Tech Engineering Physics | 35,157 | 60,976 |
| B.Tech Automotive Engineering | 38,448 | 68,769 |
| B.Tech Chemical Engineering | 1,55,628 | 97,229 |
| B.Tech Industrial & Production Engineering | 1,67,573 | 99,535 |
| B.Tech Civil Engineering | 1,83,336 | 5,84,235 |
| B.Tech Biotechnology | 1,99,849 | 7,06,173 |
| B.Tech Environmental Engineering | 2,03,503 | 8,81,148 |
Unfortunately, a rank of 20,000 in JEE MAIN won’t fetch you a seat in Computer Engineering / IT / Software Engineering at DTU. You won’t get admission into Mathematics & Computing or ECE if you are a non-delhi candidate. But all the other branches will be most certainly open for you. In case you are a Delhi candidate, things will be even more in your favor.
I hope you choose a good branch at DTU, and begin your journey at this esteemed engineering college.
I am myself a non-delhi candidate who got into B.Tech Computer Engineering at DTU in 2023. Since you haven’t mentioned your category, I am assuming that you are a general category candidate. A 92 percentile in JEE Main 2024 will roughly fetch you a rank between 94,001 to 95,000.
I am listing below the 2023 B.Tech cutoff for DTU to give you a general idea of the minimum marks required for admission-
JEE MAIN 2023 Cutoff for B.Tech admissions at DTU (General Category)
| Branch | Non-Delhi Candidate |
|---|---|
| B.Tech Computer Engineering | 6,224 |
| B.Tech Information Technology | 8,047 |
| B.Tech Software Engineering | 10,742 |
| B.Tech Mathematics and Computing | 14,191 |
| B.Tech Electronics & Communication Engineering | 17,427 |
| B.Tech Electrical Engineering | 26,778 |
| B.Tech Mechanical Engineering | 34,761 |
| B.Tech Engineering Physics | 35,157 |
| B.Tech Automotive Engineering | 38,448 |
| B.Tech Chemical Engineering | 1,55,628 |
| B.Tech Industrial & Production Engineering | 1,67,573 |
| B.Tech Civil Engineering | 1,83,336 |
| B.Tech Biotechnology | 1,99,849 |
| B.Tech Environmental Engineering | 2,03,503 |
As a non-Delhi candidate, things will be more difficult for you. However, you can expect admission into B.Tech Chemical Engineering, Industrial & Production Engineering, Civil Engineering, Biotechnology, and Environmental Engineering with 92 percentile in JEE MAIN 2024.
You should take Electrical Engineering at DTU. It is good in terms of placements, and career opportunities offered. Many core and IT companies take part in DTU placements. The average package offered to the students of EE is around INR 7.5 - 8.5 LPA. While the highest CTC offered goes up to around INR 50-55 LPA. Amazon, BCG, Google, Uber, PwC, etc. takes part in the placement drive.
