Should I opt for DTU mechanical or IIIT Delhi CSE?

The choice depends on what matters the most to you. If placements, faculty and research opportunities are your top most priority, choose IIIT Delhi CSE. In this respect, IIITD CSE beats DTU Mechanical by a large margin. But if you want the best of campus, college environment, cultural fests and brand name, DTU Mechanical is a much better choice. I would personally recommend IIIT Delhi, as it offers top notch placements. But if you’re truly passionate about Mechanical, choose that branch. Do not take your interest for granted while choosing your branch/degree.

Which is better at DTU, Electrical Engineering or Mechanical Engineering?

If you are interested in the Mechanical branch, you should definitely go for DTU Mechanical. DTU has one of the best Mechanical departments in the country. There are many tech teams and societies for the branch. Tech teams such as Defianz Racing, AUV DTU, UAS DTU, etc. even participated in competitions of international levels and won. The placement records are also good for the branch. Many PSUs frequently visit the campus placement to recruit students. The highlights of DTU Mechanical Engineering placements show the average package to be INR 7 LPA. ONGC, Mahindra, etc. are among the top recruiting companies.

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.

A NICE LITTLE INFO ON MY FAV. DTU

Fees and Financial Aid:

In DTU for all branches the fees structure is same . I took admission in 2024 and my fee structure is as follows 1st yr - 236700 2nd yr- 246700 3rd yr - 266700 4th yr - 286700 The fees is same for all category students. But later on DTU itself does a fee concession interviews with students and deserving low economical status students receive fees refund from the college. Many scholarship are also available for students (some govt. scholarships are easy to get for category students). Rest assured if you are honestly a deserving student , then you'll get the scholarship easily, so focus on getting in DTU not on fees Some prominent scholarships in DTU -NSP - e-district delhi govt. scholarship -DTU fee concession rounds -Dell scholarship

Student Snaps:

Tution fees:- (general canidate, Indian citizen) First year:-2,47,000 Second year:- 2,53,000 Third year :- 2,62,000 Fourth year:- 2,74,000 (By year it includes both the semesters) Fees of a back exam:- 7500 I havent took any scholarships but DTU itself provides 25/50/75/100% scholarship on basis of a interview taken and bank records submitted by students, otherwise many more scholarships are available, providing full tution fees and hostel fees along with laptops like reliance one, bharti one. Hostel fees:- Generally same for all types of hostels but little difference in ac/ non ac of 8000 rupees Total mess fees of full year 36000 out of which they refund fees of holidays on which food is not being prepared in mess or mess is closed due to some restrictions. While if you are a DASA student or international student fees is almost 4 times but you could heavy scholarships reducing it to normal pricing. Overall ROI is really good and university is affordable

DTU insights

I'm pursuing B.Tech in Mechanical Engineering (2022-2026 batch) from Delhi Technological University. The fee structure is pain yearly and includes tution fees, admission and regustration charges, development fees, lab and examination charges. I give yearly 244700 every year. As I'm general student so, I don't get any scholarship from the college. Yeah some of many friends gets a lot of scolarship like around 150000 INR gets reduced but they have perticular interview and documentation verifivation of that.
