Like any other thing, DTU has its own set of weaknesses and strengths. To name a few Pros You become fully dependent on self-study and stay motivated on your own. It is located in the capital city of India and thus has a plethora of opportunities to offer. Some recruiters still consider it a part of DU and approach it because of its DCE brand. DTU still is the mother institution of IIT Delhi and thus has a great faculty pool and academic environment. We have well-qualified teachers and good exposure. The 150-acre campus is better maintained than the huge forest-like campus of NSIT. DTU is better than IITs in the sense that its brand name hasn't been diluted yet and it stands high amongst its rivals. The best part of DTU is the Engifest, a spectacular event with massive participation. Cons DTU classroom sessions are very lacking so students don't get to experience good classroom learning. Although it is in Delhi, its location is Bawana DTU lacks the brand value and tag which is crucial for engineering students. The increasing batch size every year is another reason to worry about as it's affecting the cutoffs and placement opportunities directly. Overall, DTU is a great choice if you are not after brand value and are ready to commit to hard work.
