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.

What should I choose mechanical engineering at top 3 nits or CSE at NIT Jalandhar?
Students these days focus more on placements than general potential development. They rank branches on the basis of the placement opportunities they render. But this viewpoint is totally unfair.
Recent years have seen a drastic change in interest from Mechanical Engineering to CSE. People prefer sitting in front of the computer for the rest of their lives just to earn better than Mechanical Engineers.
My advice in this regard is that you should go for Mechanical Engineering at the top 3 NITs over CSE at NIT Jalandhar. Else choose CSE only if you are crazy about coding.
Will software companies allow me to sit in placements? I am a 1st year mechanical student at NIT Jalandhar.
Most of the top colleges like IITs and NITs allow all branches to sit for placements. But it’s a fact that Mechanical Engineering has stooped to a new low since 2020. The placements have become miserable now. Some tips you can follow to sit for placements are:
-
Maintain a good CGPA ( 8.5+)
-
Become proficient in coding
-
Maintain a good rank in websites like CodeChef, Hackerrank, Hackerearth, etc
-
A good resume is always the top priority for any candidate
But it mainly depends on the placement cell whether they want to allow you for a CS job or not. In most cases they do but if not you can always go for off-campus placement with your NIT tag.
