Which one should I prefer, NIT Rourkela or DTU?
Both are great institutions and have given many successful students. Both of the institutes have a rich legacy, a strong alumni network and proper reputation.
It is suggested that you go for the institute in which you are getting your desired branch because it matters the most. If you are getting your desired branch in both the institutes, opt for DTU.
This is due to the location advantage which DTU enjoys. Delhi is certainly a better place in terms of opportunities than Rourkela and you will definitely get more industrial exposure. Even if you are inclined towards higher studies and research, Delhi definitely has more options for proper training and guidance.
| Categories | NIT Rourkela | DTU |

However, it all depends on your priorities and what you seek from your college life. Compare all the things before finalizing your choice. Keep in mind that this will shape your career forward.
Is DTU better than NIT Jalandhar, Jamshedpur, Raipur and Silchar?
There is nothing such as a better college. It all depends on where you want to see yourself 10 years from now. But considering the current scenario, DTU is ahead of NIT Jalandhar.
-
Being located in the capital, the environment and culture at DTU are better. You will also get to avail better facilities here.
-
You can prepare for TOFEL, CAT, UPSC for which the college institutes in Delhi are best.
Apart from this, the placement scenarios are equally good at both colleges. The only thing better at NIT Jalandhar is its tag.
How's the hostel life in Delhi's top colleges like IIT Delhi, NSIT and DTU?
The hostel life in Delhi's top colleges such as IIT Delhi, NSIT, and DTU is generally considered to be full of roller coaster experiences. You get to interact with such a mixed crowd for the first time in your life and almost everyone here is a genius.
Your most precious memory when you will leave the college will be munching Maggie at the Maggie Baba around 3 in the morning with your friends or playing cricket at 12 midnight. You will miss the Friday night hangouts in lounges and clubs. Girls however suffer because of the curfew effective right at 9 pm. The hostels add to the overall college life experience and if you aren’t staying at a hostel, you are missing out on a lot of fun.
IIT Delhi vs DTU vs NSUT which of these considered the best engineering college in Delhi (Rankwise)?
The primary step even before deciding on the Institute is to determine which field, or branch appeals to you to the extent that you want to spend the rest of your life in that field. Once you have done that, the next step is to research which Institute specializes in that field.
- For Coding, Computer Science is the best
- For Automobiles, the Mechanical branch is the best
- For interest in electronic devices, the best branches for you are ECE and EEE are the best
- If you are interested in electrical things like motors, and power supply in house EE is the right branch for you.
- If building dams, bridges, and highways interests you, Civil Engineering is perfect for you
Lastly, I will suggest you go for IIT Delhi without much hesitation as it is a complete package, with the much coveted IIT tag, the best faculties, labs, and other amenities.
What should I prefer: NIT Jalandhar mechanical or DTU MAM?
Between NIT Jalandhar Mechanical Engineering and DTU MAM, the latter is the better option. This is because the placements for DTU mechanical are excellent. Some of the most reputed firms that visit the campus are Bajaj, Volvo, Daimler-Benz, Brahmos Aerospace, Technip, Schlumberger, Caterpillar, etc. Most of my friends from the same branch were able to secure amazing packages at top firms.
The learning process at DTU is more extensive. It has a lot of Mechanical Engineering teams which can help you know your branch better.
So choose DTU over NIT.
Which should I choose among DTU CSE, MNIT Jaipur CSE, and IIIT Allahabad IT?
The answer highly depends on your preference. If you are aspiring to be a good programmer, you should think of going to IIIT Allahabad. The curriculum is based on a coding point of view as compared to the other colleges you have mentioned.
- You will have a very programming-centric course right from the first year. Most of the students do very well in coding competitions.
- DTU CSE would also be another good option for you but the seats in this branch are quite limited so there is a lot of competition.
- If you are looking at the personality development aspects, it is also quite good. Many people also choose to ignore this parameter, but it is quite important. There are a number of opportunities available with DTU in many sectors as it is located in Delhi.
- MNIT Jaipur would not be as good as the other two options as IIIT Allahabad provides the best options.

But, it is suggested that you go for DTU CSE as many friends of mine have been able to improve quite well as far as their skill set is concerned in their fields of interest. They also received good jobs in reputed MNCs.
Which is better: IT from NSIT, IT from DTU, or CSE from IIIT Delhi?
IT from NSIT is the best option among these.
- The student crowd is brilliant. It has a small batch size compared to DTU. So, you will face less competition.
- NSIT has an amazing pool of faculties. You will get to learn from excellent faculty members like Sangeeta Sabharwal and MPS Bhatia.
- NSIT IT placements are better than DTU and IIIT D. DTU has a better placement record for core branches. While NSIT offers better placements opportunities to CS and IT students. In the recent placement drive, the average CTC for IT at NSIT was INR 6 LPA.
- Companies like Facebook, Google hire students from NSIT from their US offices.
- Major consulting and non-tech companies like Bain, BCG, ZS Associates, etc. also visit the campus placements.
IIIT Delhi has an excellent research culture and professors from top universities like Carnegie Mellon. So, if you are interested in research, you should choose IIIT D. Overall IT from NSIT is the best option in terms of academics and placements.
I got an AIR rank of 3964 in the JEE Mains. Which one should I prefer, MNNIT Allahabad for computer science or electronics or DTU for software engineering?
Both MNNIT Allahabad and DTU are well-established and much-reputed colleges. If you get admission to any of the colleges, your future will be bright and you will land up really well in companies.
Moreover, choose a branch that excites you as it is equally important as the college you will take admission in. If programming excites you, then MNNIT CSE is the best choice. If not, you can go for hardware options i.e. Electronics. Though, I'm not sure how good the software engineering of DTU is.
In terms of placements and research areas, MNNIT is not extreme but fine. You won’t get excellent faculties but you will learn a lot from their experiences. Try not to be depending on your faculty in your college life. You'll have to develop your interest and learn on your own.
Do not think only about the college but make sure you choose the correct branch as well. Both are equally important as you know that your future will depend on them.
Which one is better for pursuing engineering in India, IIIT Allahabad, IIIT Delhi, NIT Kurukshetra, DTU, or IIT Jammu?

- IIIT Allahabad has a good coding culture where over 110 companies come for campus placement.
- NIT Kurukshetra has a better placement record than IIT Jammu but IIT Jammu has a name tag with it.
