Which is better for CSE: NIT Hamirpur or NSIT/DTU?

NSIT/DTU is far better than NIT Hamirpur for CSE. Be it academics, placement, research culture, peer group, exposure, etc. NSIT/DTU will offer better opportunities. These two institutes also have a locational advantage. Due to the favorable location, you can easily get good exposure in the CSE domain. NSIT and DTU both will offer you plenty of opportunities. However, many students prefer NSIT for their small student intake.

Should I prefer JMI CSE or DTU mechanical?

Among the above two institutes, for students interested specifically in computer science, JMI CSE should be a better option. But, students having no specific preference in streams should consider Mechanical at DTU. The table below gives a brief level of comparison among the two departments of the institutes. Particulars CSE at Jamia Millia Islamia (JMI), Delhi Mechanical Engineering at Delhi Technological University (DTU) NIRF ’20 Ranking 28 36 Total Fees (B.Tech) Rs. 64,600 Rs. 7.8 Lakhs Median Salary Offered Rs. 7.2 LPA Rs. 9 LPA Total Number of Seats 70 185 Key Highlights: As discussed above, students interested in Computer Science and IT should take JMI CSE, which generally has some decent opportunities. The top 7% of the batch gets more than 7 LPA package salary in JMI CSE. Students having no specific preference can choose DTU Mechanical, which provides a large amount of exposure inside the campus, along with several good opportunities during and after the course. Students at DTU Mechanical usually get a 7.5+ LPA package offer in some of the best companies working in the core mechanical sector. The course of DTU Mechanical is considered to be one of the best in India. JMI has much lesser fees than DTU, which makes it a lot of a more preferred option. For students successful in getting a decent placement offer at JMI, it provides a much better return on investment than DTU. Considering all the above factors, both the institutes have their own set of advantages and are worth considering.

DTU INSIGHTS

I have taken admission in 2023..so I paid 229000 fees in first year by taking education loan from sbi almost at 10% and gradually fees increases like in 2nd year it's 236000 and so on..as I m in 2nd year currently so can't confirm fees about 3rd year but it would be around 246000 then in fourth year 264000 ... So I have applied for scholarship as well in first year of college and they asked for documents like income certificate and bank statement of last 12 month of each family member so that they can identify who is actually deserving for scholarship then after submitting online documents we have to submit hardcopy in admin block then after few weeks an interview is held ..we have to come with our parents and they ask few questions about our family and backgrounds...then there are 3 types of scholarship they provide ..100% tution fees then 50% tution fees then 25% tution fees...basis on how their family background they are...mostly less than 1 lakh get 100% tution fees easily ...I got 100% tution fees in my first and second year with income 96000 in income certificate and I m general ews student there are more scholarship available for each category like sc st...as well but this scholarship I was talking about is open for all no category oriented

My point of view for DTU

as a government college academic fees is very much high
In academics you have to score good for high cgpa as competition is quite high

fees can vary year to year. for me it was 240k for the first year and they add approximately 10k every year. other than this they gave us many scholarships or financial aid for economically weaker students. they also reward the students with good scores or high rankers. many government based scholarships are also available for the students

My experience on college life

Dtu a good college

Syllabus is too much vast to be covered in one semester only
Exams are very frequent this less time given for in depth knowledge

Year wise the fees is on an average 1.5 lakh and I haven't availed any scholarship and it is increasing per year to be around 9 lakh for full course tution fees is around 75 thousand.... It is not much affordable but worth it
