I am not much aware of the procedure of NSIT Dwarka. But lateral entry in Civil Engineering is allowed at PTU. However, you will need to have a Polytechnic Diploma in Civil Engineering.

You cannot take lateral admission at NSIT because there is no civil engineering branch at NSIT. In addition to that, no government college that follows the JAC admission process allows lateral admission.

Maharaja Surajmal Institute of Technology has been positioned under the rank band of 151-200 among the top 906 engineering institutions across the country which also includes all IITs/IIITs/NITs. Hence, CSE at MAIT is a good option.

As per Times Engineering Survey and NIRF, Delhi Technological University (DTU) is ranked 2nd and 34th among the Best Technological Universities in India.

Ranked 5 in State Fund University by ARIIA 2020 and 11 in India's Top 150 Engineering Colleges in 2019 by Outlook, NSUT offers a wide range of courses and is accredited by ‘NAAC A’.

Admission:

The admission details for MAIT, DTU and NSIT are as follows.

Placements:

DTU:

Delhi Technological University has an unmatched placement record as one of the top engineering colleges in the country. It is ranked no. 1 by Outlook India in a placement category.

All of the above courses offered by different institutes stand high in one or the other areas, so it’s up to applicant choice to which course and college to take admission in.

• Candidates need to go through the GGSIPU counseling for securing a seat in MAIT, and JAC Delhi counseling for NSUT.

The cut-off ranks for the colleges are given below.

Placements:

MAIT- At MAIT, the IT branch has one of the highest placement records.

• The highest salary package offered is around 28 LPA, and the lowest is around 3.3 LPA, and the average is around 5 LPA.

• More than 40 companies come for placements in the IT branch.

• Some of the companies that come for recruitment are Infosys, TCS, Wipro, HCL Technologies, Nagar, Accenture, and IBM.

NSUT- It has some of the top companies in India visiting for placements, including international companies.

• The placement record of the ECE branch is pretty decent, around 90%.

• The maximum package offered is 22 LPA; the minimum package offered is 3 LPA.

• Companies like D. E Shaw, Amazon, Microsoft, and Sprinklr come to the campus for recruitment.

Infrastructure:

MAIT- The campus of MAIT is relatively small but has all the necessary facilities required by students. Facilities include Wi-Fi, smart classrooms, libraries, and sports facilities.

NSUT-

• It has a massive air-conditioned library of three floors containing books written by national and international authors.

• Classrooms are spacious, and the entire campus is Wi-Fi enabled.

• NSUT also has excellent sports facilities with badminton, basketball, and tennis courts, and also grounds for football, cricket, and running tracks.

In terms of academics, both the colleges have a dedicated group of faculties who support and guide their students. The student to faculty ratio at MAIT is around 70:1, and at NSUT it is almost the same. The faculties at NSUT are highly qualified but extremely strict, and the course curriculum is updated. As for which institute will be better for you, you should be the one to decide that.

The answer to this question depends on the interests. It totally depends on the field of interest of the student.

•  If one is interested in software and development and using devices such as laptops or mobile phones, then one can choose Software engineering at Delhi Technological University (DTU). 
• If one is interested in the hardware part, then he/she should opt for ECE at NSIT. 
•  After all if one is still confused to make a decision for either of the streams, then only the candidate should apply for Software Engineering at DTU.

If there is still a confusion about DTU for software Engineering and ECE at NSIT they can look at the college placements for that particular course.

Placements of Software Engineering at DTU and Communications engineering at NSIT: 

Therefore, according to the placement averages and top companies that visit the college, Software engineering from Delhi technical university seems like a viable option. There is a wide wage gap that we can see in the tables mentioned above. Also, most of my batch mates also feels that software engineering in DTU is a better option as compared to ECE in NSIT.
