How did NSIT come to become one of the top tier engineering colleges in India?
A number of factors combined together make NSUT one of the premier engineering colleges in the country.
- Establishment : NSUT was given importance from the very beginning by DU because of its excellent industry relations and good opportunities in terms of jobs and exposure. In fact, in the early 1990s, DCE and NSUT were the only two good govt engineering colleges in Delhi after IIT-D.
- Crowd : NSUT has a low intake and only the best students are given admission here. The crowd quality is never sacrificed for the sake of money, unlike other colleges. Ever since its establishment NSUT has attracted the best companies so DCE and NSUT became the RECs of Delhi.
- Location : NSUT is located in Delhi, the capital which is home to a huge number of companies. Most of the companies recruit from IIT Delhi, DTU, and NSUT. In fact, almost 80% of the companies visiting IIT visit DTU and NSUT too. This abundance of jobs has made NSUT a preferable choice for many. Better placements automatically attracted better students.
- Placements: Engineering aspirants look for decent packages to kick-start their careers. NSUT offers exactly that and thus it’s an ideal choice for many seeking education in Delhi. The institute is visited by top companies like l TCS, Infosys, Accenture, Wipro, Google, and Facebook, or all the major PSUs, they visited NSUT.
However, in recent years both DTU and NSUT have increased their intake exponentially and have lost the charm of being the best Engineering colleges in Delhi. NIT Delhi and IIIT Delhi seem to have taken their place now. So unless the students of NSUT help restore its brand value, the institute will be a total failure in the future.
Which one is better-Electronics and communications in Dtu or nsit?
My sister pursued her B.E. in Electronics and Communication from NSIT (NSUT). She was also confused between the two options when she got her JEE Mains rank. Finally, she chose NSUT. These are the reasons behind her decision-
- NSIT (NSUT) is well-known for Electronics. Before their separation, NSUT was a part of DTU that specialized in Electronics.
- The faculty for electronics is better at NSUT. There are well-known and highly respected faculty members under whom you can do various projects.
- The CEDT Lab at NSUT, funded by Texas Instruments is famous in other colleges as well and people from other colleges also enroll themselves to work in the CEDT Lab.
- NSUT is not as overpopulated as DTU. This leads to comparatively less competition and better placement opportunities.
Overall, NSUT is a better choice to pursue your Electronics and Communication Engineering.
Did I make a mistake by choosing NSIT?
I am a student at NSUT Delhi. I do not regret joining this institution at all. At NSIT, you will get the opportunity to explore your interests and participate in various college societies. Through societies, you can connect with seniors who are very helpful and supportive.
In comparison to other colleges, NSUT Delhi has many advantages-
- Its infrastructure is much better than some newly developed IITs.
- It has good class timings and no imposition of compulsory sports.
- It is located in Delhi, the national capital. Other than that, if you are from Delhi NCR or other parts of North India, you can visit home on weekends/ holidays.
- At NSUT Delhi, you will make good connections because the crowd is friendly. This is unlike the old IITs where there is cut throat competition.
Have faith in your choice and make the most out of this opportunity. Remember that nothing comes out of regret. Also, this institution is a great place to be in.
Which is better for a person getting JEE rank greater than 3500: Get brand name of IIT without top-notch branch or join NITs/DCE/NSIT with CS/EE?
If your rank is more than 1000, you’ll probably not get CS/ EE in any good IIT. But if you still wish for an IIT tag, I would recommend you go for a more relaxed branch. This means, picking the branch with the lowest closing rank. I am saying this because apart from the CS/EE/Mathematics group, all the branches come under the category of “others”. Unfortunately, all these “other” branches are equally placed.
- The coursework, curriculum, and labs are very bland, boring, and outdated. With these branches, a good CGPA and extracurriculars will be the saving grace for your resume.
- A lower branch will allow you to secure good grades more easily and you will get time to pursue extracurriculars.
- By doing courses on Coursera and Udacity and making open-source contributions, you can become skilled and learn in coding/programming. Through various online platforms, you can get in touch with software companies in the valley.
If you are passionate about a field, be it Mechanical or Chemical, definitely go for it. With a passion for your field, you will secure a good core job or can even plan your Phd. in that domain. I would also recommend you check the integrated MSc. courses in Mathematics/Statistics/Physics. They might be a better and more beneficial choice.
As far as NSIT/DCE/NITs are concerned, I would recommend you talk to some seniors from the CSE/EE branch to get a better idea. Otherwise, go for a lower branch in the IITs if you do not get a “top notch” branch at them.
How is college life at NSIT Delhi?
NSUT Delhi offers a dynamic and vibrant college life. The college spreads over a huge campus that is surrounded by lush greenery and peacocks flying around.
The college gives equal importance to academics and extracurricular activities and has various societies that promote fun activities such as dance, music, drama, fashion, debating, etc. A few societies like CSI, IEEE, and BHR promote educational and technical skills. You always have something to do or explore here and won’t get bored even for a moment.
Another source of great fun and enthusiasm is parties. First-year students get 2 freshers, an official and an unofficial one. The intercollege cultural fest Resonanz brings another wave of enjoyment to the campus. This is followed by the intercollege technical fest Innovision and the cultural fest Moksha. These are held on a huge scale and students can be seen involved in fun activities for 4-5 days.
Overall NSUT offers a very happening college life that will give you some of the best memories and friends to cherish for life.

What is the GPA system in NSIT or DTU?
To convert your CGPA from percentage, and vice versa, use this formula-
CGPA= ( Percentage marks+7.5)/10
(or CGPA= Percentage marks/10)+ 0.75
And conversely,
Percentage= (10*CGPA)-7.5
Accordingly, the grades corresponding to the percentage are as given below-
|

Is there Management Quota in NSIT DELHI.?
NSUT Delhi is a government engineering college and unlike other private engineering colleges, it does not have a management quota at least officially.
Although there are many rumors of unethical means adopted in admission, that is something every college is involved into a certain extent, and wasting your time on that is futile.
The college, however, does have a staff quota, and many candidates misuse that, by pretending to be a direct relation of a staff member.
So be aware of such activities!
What did you learn from campus placements experience at NSIT?
Here are some important things I learned from the campus placements at NSUT Delhi-
- It’s a harsh reality but luck plays a huge role in placements. Sometimes it will shock you how people with no potential at all get offered great job opportunities.
- Confidence and patience are really important during placements.
- You need to prepare well to get placed. By sitting for various companies too, you will get a lot of experience and exposure on the do’s and don'ts.
- Placement season is the best and worst time of your college life. This is when you get to know the difference between fake and real friends.
- Learn to be satisfied with the job that you end up in. It is your grades, caliber, and level of preparation that have brought you here. A comparison with others is of no use.
- Sometimes people become rude after getting placed in a top company for a good package. Learn to ignore them and remain calm.
- Only you know your hard work, worth and potential. Don’t let others talk you down with rude words.
- Some of your close friends may not get a good placement. This is the time when you support them.
- Utilize your time after placements. Get productive, don’t be lazy.
