These are some of the factors that you need to take into consideration while choosing between the two options. As for which one should you choose, you should be the one to decide that.

One of my friends studied at DTU. To him, it is at par with old IITs and BITS. Let us see why he preferred DTU over any other IIITs or IITs.

• DTU has a 100% placement record. Almost all the big companies like Adobe, Google, Microsoft visit their campus for placement
• The salary package sometimes reaches as high as 1.25 crores.
• Recently there has been a change in the system of electives as you can study any subject of any branch. You can also choose online courses which are not present in most of the IITs.
• You can do everything there if you wanna write a research paper and have it published. Then, you can opt for writing a research paper instead of studying the subject.

You could also go for the 3 years mini-project instead of Opting any other subjects. You would not get these types of opportunities in the 7 IITs.

ECE and IT are two completely different streams in the field of Engineering and hence, one must go for the stream he/she wants to pursue. However, choosing the right college to build a student’s career is also important. So the following points can be taken into consideration for choosing between IIEST Shibpur and Delhi Technological University(DTU). IIEST Shibpur is ranked 20th in India by NIRF / MHRD in the Year 2019. Whereas, DTU presently ranks 62 by the NIRF.

Cut-off: Both the institute takes admission based on a valid score in JEE Main followed by Joint Admission Counselling.

• At IIEST Shibpur the JEE MAIN cut-off rank for taking admissions in IT was 9524 - 17031 in 2019.

• At DTU the cut-off rank in ECE was 22258, in the same year.

Fees:

• At DTU the average fees per year are 1.95 lakhs.

• For IIEST Shibpur the average fees per year are 1.37 lakhs.

Thus in terms of fees, BTech in IIEST Shibpur costs less than that of DTU.

Placement:

• Headed by a Renowned Ex IIT Director, IIEST Shibpur got the highest placement record of 75% in IT, last year. It witnessed the highest salary package of INR 39.12 LPA.

• Whereas, 170 out of 192 that is 88.5% of students got placed in ECE in DTU. The highest salary for B.Tech ECE during the last placement was INR 39 LPA.

So, DTU is much ahead in terms of placements.

You can apply for any of the two colleges keeping in mind the above-mentioned comparisons. DTU and IIEST Shibpur are the two most renowned colleges in India. However, IIEST is ranked higher and offers better placement than DTU. Nevertheless, the first thing that you have to consider is which stream you want to study and then decide a college depending upon that. Now, if you haven't decided anything and is confused between the above two streams, then studying IT at IIEST Shibpur is a better option.
