Which one should I prefer DTU - IT or IIIT Allahabad - IT?

IIIT Allahabad was established to foster research in the first place and make a clear-cut focus on IT. DTU was initially Delhi Polytechnic offering a range of courses in Arts, Sciences, Commerce, Engineering, Applied Sciences, and Textiles. The department of computer engineering was added later on.

Placements:

The placements are the prime most attractive factor looked by the individuals especially in the stream of computer science and IT. The placement details of 2020 with respect to IT field in both DTU & IIIT Allahabad are as follows. 

Course Structure:

• DTU’s course is very fundamental in the first year while in the second year it focuses on technical topics like Analog electronics, OOP, Discrete Structures, Engineering Economics, Digital Electronics, DBMS.
• IIIT Allahabad on the other hand starts with a rigorous plan from the very beginning. The topics taught in semesters 1 & 2 are Calculus & differentiation, Discrete Mathematics, OOP Methodologies, and Engineering Physics.

Faculty: 

The faculty at IIT A is more experienced than DTU as a majority of them have Ph.D. while in DTU the maximum is either associate or assistant professors in general.

Campus Outlook:

IIIT A has a good infrastructure & placement criterion but DTU takes a lead when it comes to location and better campus life.

DTU also has a huge student intake, and at the time of placement, most of them will apply for IT companies. So, the bottom line is, if you are interested in coding and want to genuinely learn, IIIT A is a better option. If you want balanced placement you can choose either of these two institutes. IIIT A can be a little better for placement since it does not have a huge student strength. And if you want a better campus and city life go for DTU.
