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.

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.

• The highest CTC offered by domestic companies and international companies is 39.2 LPA and 52.22 LPA respectively.

• The average CTC received by the students at the institute in 2020 placement was 6.5 LPA.

NSUT:

• Looking at the records of the NSUT placement, the salary package offered is from INR 4 LPA to INR 1.25 Cr. from BE courses including MPAE.

• The students are placed in different multinational companies, government and the private sector, etc.

• A total of 172 recruitment firms visited the college. Deloitte, 91 mobiles, Amazon India, Accenture, Bharti Airtel, KPMG, Reliance Jio, Samsung, Maruti Suzuki, and so on are just a few of the companies providing student placements.

MAIT Delhi:

It offers its students decent placement and internship opportunities by interacting with different reputable companies.

• 42 firms visited the campus in 2019 offering packages from INR 3.5 LPA to INR 28 LPA.

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.

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.

DTU and IIT Dharwad both give head-on competition to each other in all fields. DTU is ranked 36th by NIRF and 2nd by Times Engineering Survey. IIT Dharwad was recently established, and it's making all efforts to be ranked among the best. Placement opportunities are impressive in both colleges. More than 90% of the students are placed every year.
