NSUT Placement 2025: Highest Package, Average Package, Top Recruiters

BioTech at NSUT Delhi is a unique branch of the institute in the sense that its syllabus is completely different from other branches except for the first year. While other branches have a few overlapping courses, BioTech has none. BioTech students have separate labs, subjects, practicals, etc. Here are some highlights of this branch. 

• Few are interested in core jobs while some are coding enthusiasts who don’t get many opportunities in on-campus placements but perform well in off-campus placements.
•  The students of this branch are actively involved in societies and clubs, ranging from DebSoc to Ashwamedha, Crescendo, and Mirage among others.
• BioTech students usually are passionate about research work. They work under the faculty and publish some really good research papers throughout their college life. 
• Students with good grades have an edge in nontech jobs, society PORs, and even in higher education like MBA/IAS, etc.
• The most common choice of these students is to pursue a Master's or an MBA. Some secure core or nontech jobs as per their skills.

Overall the placements for the BioTech branch of NSUT Delhi are average with a mix of core and nin core opportunities. 

Programming is a field anyone can opt for provided they have the skills and the knowledge. Irrespective of the branch, engineering students are exposed to programming to a certain extent and thus have the skills for an IT job. Non-cs students can get jobs in top companies like Google, Amazon Microsoft, etc. if they are well-versed with algorithms. Even average students get placed in the IT department of companies like Flipkart, Snapdeal, Myntra, Tower Research, Shopclues, Delhivery, Jabong, and many other good startups like Grabhouse and Flatfurnish, etc. 

So whether you can join it or not depends on whether you are interested in it and can pursue it long term as your career. If you don’t have a genuine interest the field may tire you out after a while and even the money you make won’t satisfy you. If you think you won’t be able to join because you lack the skills then rest assured, that is certainly not the case. IT Companies hire IITians for sure based on analytical skills only.

Hope this helps you!

Here are some important things I learned from the campus placements at NSUT Delhi-

1. 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.
2. Confidence and patience are really important during placements.
3. 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.
4. 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.
5. 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.
6. Sometimes people become rude after getting placed in a top company for a good package. Learn to ignore them and remain calm.
7. Only you know your hard work, worth and potential. Don’t let others talk you down with rude words.
8. Some of your close friends may not get a good placement. This is the time when you support them.
9. Utilize your time after placements. Get productive, don’t be lazy. 

These experiences aren’t just limited to the placement season of NSUT Delhi, they are common for all the colleges/ universities.

Here is the 2022 GATE cutoff for DTU (General category):

You will have to get at least rank 2000 for DTU and 3000 for NSUT Delhi.

Both DTU and NSUT Delhi offer plenty of opportunities for their students in this field. 

Qualcomm, SanDisk, Samsung R&D, Mobikwik, Amazon, American Express, Royal Bank of Scotland, Tejas networks, IBM, Amazon, AWS, and Morgan Stanley are some of the MNCs that usually prefer to recruit DTU students. These companies offer a package of around 6-8 LPA. You may also be selected by Google, Microsoft, Apple, Goldman Sachs, Flipkart, Codenation, and Facebook Germany & Ireland.

For placements, DTU is comparable to the top 7 IITs and top 3 NITs. NSUT Delhi is a great college but lags a bit in comparison to DTU in terms of placements. If you are going to study at DTU, choose your specialization according to this preference order- CSE> SWE> ISY. NSUT Delhi offers an M.Tech in CSE, Information Security, and AI.

These are some details about an M.Tech in CSE and related courses at DTU and NSUT Delhi. 

NSUT Delhi placements start at the beginning of August/ towards July end. If you are an expert in coding, you will receive handsome offers from Facebook, Microsoft, Yahoo, etc. Winshuttle, Deloitte, CISCO, DE Shaw, and TI are some other companies that visit the campus for placements. 

I know a college alumni who was shortlisted for DE Shaw and TI. But both these firms hired the top two candidates only. He then got selected for Open Solutions but finally became the only one in his batch to be selected by Walmart. 

The placement cell does a great job of bringing in the best companies on campus. Like any other college, core companies visit in less numbers. Other than software, analytics, finance, and marketing profiles are offered to the students.

Overall, the placements at NSUT Delhi are quite good but core profiles are offered in very less numbers.

Here are some important tips that you can follow to get placed in a good non-tech company during the NSUT Delhi placements-

1. Good companies start visiting the campus in the last week of July. So don’t procrastinate on making your resume. Every company seeks qualities in a resume. Like, Finance companies focus on your academics and any related course, while Consulting companies appreciate case studies/MUNs in your resume. Keep an updated resume. In case you are short on material, mention any prizes, competitions, or olympiads. Do mention some social work you did as that will add ‘stars’ to your resume. 
2. The first round comprises MCQs to test your logical reasoning and quantitative aptitude. Companies like Axtria also test your verbal ability (grammar and critical reasoning specifically), and a bit of coding knowledge. Practice these questions from a CAT preparation book/ modules from a good MBA coaching institute. Choose a book according to your comfort- from basic to advanced. Practice a few sets of verbal and logical reasoning questions daily. You can learn coding basics from ‘Test your C skills’ and ‘Let us C’. Data Analytics companies like Axtria also ask a little about DBMS, SQL, and OOPS concepts. Study them from C++ by Sumita Arora class 12th or online.
3. Consulting companies then focus on how you deal with cases and guess estimates. Read/Practice these from ‘Case in Point’, ‘Ace the Case’

and ‘Wharton guide’. For puzzles and brainteasers, read the book ‘Acing the Brainteaser Interview’. Indiabix is a good source for puzzles, quantitative and logical aptitude.

1. Practice common HR interview questions.
2. Research well about your target company, and listen carefully during the company’s presentation, and ask smart questions during the company’s

presentation or interview.

Try to remain calm and composed. You will get selected by a good company during the NSUT Delhi placements. But if things don’t go as planned, remember that everything gets better eventually.
