Which is better, EE at DTU or ICE at NSIT?

There is no better branch between EE at DTU and ICE at NSIT. It's all about preferences and inclinations. To help you make an informed decision let's talk about both the branches individually EE at DTU EE at DTU is core electrical engineering wherein you are taught concepts related to power, grids, electrical machines, etc. For placements, core companies like BHEL and companies in the energy field visit the campus. ICE at NSIT This branch has Control Engineering concepts along with electrical, electronics, and computer engineering.ICE has very light coursework and it's easy to maintain a good CGPA. You also get enough time for your passions and extracurriculars. IT giants like Facebook, Google, etc. Don't allow ICE students to sit for placements. Core companies that recruit students of this branch include Qualcomm, Texas Instruments, and others. Non-tech companies like BCG, Bain, and JPMC allow all students to sit for placements. NSIT has a larger batch size and thus the competition here is less than DTU for placements but it still it cannot match the brand value of DTU. In all, both DTU and NSIT have similar opportunities and placements so with the right mindset you can do well at both colleges.

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.

Admission to Delhi Technological University (DTU) is based on JEE Main ranks, with an online application fee of INR 1200 plus taxes. The admission process includes multiple counseling rounds managed by JAC Delhi for DTU and other associated colleges. An initial fee of INR 75,000 plus a bank challan fee is required post-counseling to secure a seat. Faculty at DTU are generally well-qualified, with student-faculty ratios ranging from 1:8 to 1:60.

The fee structure is increasingly expensive, with general category students paying INR 1,05,000 per annum, and SC/ST/OBC students paying INR 24,000. The total course fee ranges from INR 4,20,000 to INR 7,00,000, increasing by 10-15% annually. Hostel fees are around INR 30,000 annually, with a monthly mess charge of approximately INR 2,500. DTU provides scholarships based on family income and academic merit, offering fee waivers for students from low-income families.

The placement record is strong, with over 400 companies visiting in 2022-2023, offering 2,459 placements. The highest international package was INR 1.84 crore, and the highest domestic package was INR 64 lakh per annum. The average package was between INR 15-17 lakh per annum, with a placement rate of 80-97%. Internship opportunities with stipends ranging from INR 20,000 to 2 lakh per month are also available. Scholarships from the Delhi government and private organizations, as well as educational loans from banks like SBI, support students financially.

Despite annual fee increases, DTU's fees remain lower compared to other top government engineering colleges, though still significant for some families.

From JEE TO being DTUite

230000 fees is paid every year but it increases 3k every year, so i have to pay lumpsum around 10 lakh fees and the tuition fee would be around 140k and rest is hidden charges. Yeah there are lot of scholarship ranging from 20k to 230k like st,sc have their sseparate scholarship . Like one of my friend belong from reseerved caste his whole fees is reimbursed. College also provide scholarship to the students who have low annual income. Many state driven scholarship are also there like nsp and mcm etc.

Things you should know before going DTU.

Fee structure for BTech 1st year is 236000, 2nd year is 246700, 3rd year is 266700, and for 4th year it is 286700. So the total amount for BTech 2024-28 batch is 1036100. There are two types of scholarships available by DTU students majorly, which are DTU's own scholarship and NSP, which is given by Delhi government itself. Some scholarships are also available for students such as DELL Aspire, Airtel, etc. I applied for DTU's scholarship and I get the 100% tuition fees scholarship. The fees are increasing because for the previous year 2023-24, 1st year fees were 229000, 2nd year was 236000, 3rd year was 246700, and 4th year was 266700. So you can easily see fees are increasing, and you also can see the pattern.
