Studied Bachelor of Engineering in Industrial and Production Engineering at National Institute of Technology, Delhi (2019)

Among the two, Mechanical at PEC Chandigarh would be a better choice. PEC being an old and highly recognized institute whereas NIT Delhi is comparatively a newer establishment.

Placement (Winning Institute- PEC Chandigarh)

  • PEC has a progressive atmosphere for core branches like mechanical. The faculties help in placement training and creative experimental works.
  • The top recruiting companies include Alstom, Volvo, Fiat, L&T, Indian Oil, etc.
  • Although ECE is a stream of greater demand as both core Electronics and IT companies recruit ECE graduates. NIT Delhi, being a recently established institute has a lower average CTC offered to its students than Mechanical at PEC Chandigarh.

The table below states the basic overview of the required departments from the two institutes.

Opportunities

  • After completing Mechanical at PEC, students can opt for a Masters in Design which serves a purpose of Architectural discipline and great demand.

Campus

  • PEC Chandigarh has a better campus and infrastructure than NIT Delhi.
  • Co-curricular activities like fests, sports, events, etc. take place on a larger scale in PEC Chandigarh, being a more popular institute.

The comparison between Electronics and Communication at NIT Delhi and Mechanical at PEC Chandigarh is entirely dependent on what the candidate wants, both being completely different streams. But PEC still stands a step ahead, being a more reputed institution.

Can I get any branch in NIT Goa, Jaipur, or Delhi if my JEE Mains rank is 180k (I am in the general category)?

Ritam Yashu Posted On : August 28th, 2021
B.Tech in ECE from NIT, Patna (2019)

It's nearly impossible to get any branch in any of the colleges mentioned above. The colleges mentioned above are all NITs in particular NIT Goa, NIT Jaipur, and NIT Delhi. 

None of the NITs open admission for the rank of around 180k so it would be better if you should prepare well and appear for the exam in the next year or take admission in any private college. There's no chance that any NIT would offer admission for 180k rank.

Should I go for B.Tech Mathematics and Computing in DTU or B.Tech Mechanical Engineering in NIT Delhi?

L
LunarLimaBean Posted On : April 18th, 2026

Both DTU's B.Tech in Mathematics and Computing and NIT Delhi's B.Tech in Mechanical Engineering have their unique strengths. DTU offers a strong curriculum that emphasizes real-world applications, and the internship opportunities are impressive, with companies like Adobe offering significant stipends. However, NIT Delhi has a more established reputation in engineering, particularly in Mechanical Engineering, and the campus life seems vibrant with active societies and events. In terms of placements, while DTU has high-profile companies visiting, NIT Delhi's overall engineering brand might give you an edge in the job market. Personally, I'd lean towards NIT Delhi for its reputation and broader engineering focus, especially if you're looking for long-term stability in your career. If you’re more inclined towards tech and mathematics, then DTU could be a great fit, but NIT Delhi feels like the safer bet overall.

Should I go for B.Tech Information Technology in DTU or B.Tech Electrical Engineering in NIT Delhi?

P
PhantomPlum Posted On : April 17th, 2026

Both DTU for B.Tech Information Technology and NIT Delhi for B.Tech Electrical Engineering have their strengths, but in terms of placements and internships, DTU seems to have the edge. DTU boasts impressive placement records with companies like Microsoft and Nvidia offering lucrative packages, including the highest package going over 1 crore. The availability of internships from top firms like Amazon also enhances career prospects for IT students. NIT Delhi, while reputable, doesn’t have the same level of reported placement success. If you're inclined towards technology and software roles, DTU is a solid choice, but if you're more interested in core engineering and electrical roles, NIT Delhi could still be a great option. Ultimately, I'd recommend DTU for a stronger job market presence in IT.

Which one should I opt for DTU B.Tech Chemical Engineering or NIT Delhi B.Tech Electrical Engineering

A
AstralAloeVeraJuice Posted On : April 17th, 2026

DTU's B.Tech in Chemical Engineering stands out with impressive placement statistics, boasting a highest package of 1.8 Cr and an average package above 16 lakhs, alongside strong internship opportunities with top firms like Microsoft and Google. In contrast, while NIT Delhi's B.Tech in Electrical Engineering is also reputable, specific placement figures and internship insights are less detailed, making it harder to gauge its competitive edge. Given DTU's excellent track record in placements and supportive internship programs, I'd recommend DTU for better job prospects, especially if you’re aiming for core tech roles. However, if your passion lies in electrical engineering and you prefer NIT's environment, it could still be a solid choice.

How is the faculty at NIT Delhi?

AJ
Ayush Jha Posted On : December 25th, 2025

NIT Delhi has a good faculity to student ratio of around 1:15, which allows decent intresction between students and professors. Most faculty members are approachable during office hours, labs and projects discussions. The overall faculty - student relationship is professional and many many professors are supportive when it comes to acedmics, research guidance and higher studies. I like all faculty. The course includes DSA, OS, CN, DBMS and elective from 5th semester..Each semezter has mid sem , end sem exam, assignments, viva, projects, and continious evaluation. Exams are moderate to difficult and logic based. Some students get backlog in math and core subjects. Overall curriculum is relevant and rigorous, helping in placements and higher studies both.

How are the hostels at NIT Delhi?

RR
Ranveer Rajput Posted On : September 29th, 2025

The hostel facilities at NIT Delhi are average and usable, though the campus is still under construction. Most hostels come with single, double, or triple occupancy types of rooms, and these are minimally furnished, Wi-Fi is available, and there are some common areas for socializing. Mess is served with regular meals, but hygiene standards are usually good, though students sometimes depend on their own arrangements for snacks. Sports grounds, indoor games, and study areas can also be found within the hostel premises. There are also some rental apartments for those students who want to stay off-campus, but hostels are still preferred because of the closeness, safety, and integration into the campus life. Generally, the hostel life is comfortable and keeps alive the spirit of a strong community.
