One of my friends recently completed Biotechnology at NIT Rourkela and shared his experience of the same.
Overall, the branch should be considered unless you are specifically inclined towards it and have no expectations of high packages.
The Electrical Engineering branch of DTU has a wide scope in terms of academics as well as placements. Students are exposed to a wide range of future prospects and the opportunities are plentiful.
You will be highly disappointed with the academic environment here. The curriculum is poorly structured, obsolete, and irrelevant to industrial needs. The faculty is not passionate about teaching and tends to deliver bookish concepts only. The classes conducted are boring, the students do last-minute mugging up for concepts and get low scores.
Placements-wide, DTU will not disappoint you much. Decent companies come and hire those with decent grades. Some core companies also make great offers. Then again, EE placements cannot be compared to CS or IT placements.
As far as internships are concerned, not even a single core company offers internships to EE students. Usually, coding companies like Amazon and Directl offer internships but EE students hardly are able to secure one.
Eventually, if you are an EE student, you will get placed in core/non-tech companies. Some even go for PSUs or pursue MBA or MS. Remember that the growth of students in EE is more than those in the IT sector. You will need patience and dedication to stay in this branch and reap the benefits in the long run.
CCS University is better than other private colleges in the region. The free structure is affordable. The infrastructure of CCS University is not great. The facilities offered are similar to other government universities. If you are from the region, you can keep the university as an option.
But if you are getting admission at DU or other reputed universities, you should choose those options over CCS.

Yes,JNTUH has an option of leaving 2 subjects. But that does not mean you don’t have to appear for the exams in these subjects. It’s just that these two subjects are spared from being included in the final grade calculation.

For this, you will have to fill out the form beforehand. Also, this is subject to certain conditions such as
In such case case, you don’t have a single back, then non-technical subjects having the least value are removed automatically. The final percentage is calculated after removing these subjects only.
