Questions Asked On NSIT Delhi (NSUT), New Delhi
Which is better, NSIT or DTU?
My friend had to choose between DTU CSE and NSIT CSE and eventually went for DTU CSE after considering the below points
- Brand name: DTU enjoys better recognition both inside and outside Delhi because of its rich legacy while NSIT is hardly known outside Delhi.
- Alumni Network: Being one of the oldest technical institutes it has an extensive alumni network whereas NSIT was established much later and its alumni pool is small.
- Placements: Both NSIT and DTU give an edge to each other in terms of placements and their average package is quite similar. DTU average package stands at INR 15.16 LPA while NSIT median package stands at INR 16 LPA. However, DTU has a larger batch size so maintaining this average package in itself proves that it's better.
- Location: NSIT enjoys a better location and has easy access to shopping centers and eateries. It also attracts a better crowd than DTU.
- Campus: DTU has a better maintained and facilitated campus than NSUT. NSIT has a lot of unused land which has become a breeding ground for wild animals.
- Sports Facility: DTU is a clear winner here with its huge sports complex and indoor Badminton courts.
- Research culture: Both colleges have poor research culture so if you are a research enthusiast, choose IIIT Delhi instead.
The ultimate decision depends on personal factors like distance from home and other inclinations.
Among NIT Delhi, DTU, and NSUT, which one is better in terms of placement?
NIT Delhi is very young, and it can not be compared to NSUT and DTU. Now the better option among these two depends on your branch choice. If you want to opt for CoE/IT/ECE, NSUT has slightly better placements in these branches. But in core branches (Civil, Electrical, Mechanical, Poly), DTU has a really good placement record. Moreover, DTU has a great campus life.
Why isn’t the NSIT famous?
Well, I don’t believe that NSUT is not famous. In fact, it’s well-known globally. One of my friends who is an ex-student of NSUT went to Harvard MUN and most of the students there knew about NSUT. This in itself speaks of the college's reputation and brand value.
You will be surprised to know that NSUT is the only college from India to get an invitation to send a delegation to the prestigious Harvard MUN.
The reason it isn’t as famous as DTU is because it has almost half the intake of DTU. So it has fewer alumni spread across the globe that would promote the institute.
So it’s just a misconception that NSUT is not famous!
How are NSIT placements this year?
The NSIT placements statistics are decent but yet not at or with DTU and IIIT Delhi. Although a large number of companies visit the campus for placements, the average and median CTC is quite low. It is still considered the best option for CS/Circuit branches but the batch size has been increasing alarmingly so the quality might be compromised.
NSUT Placements 2022 witnessed around 1044 placements with the median package standing at INR 6.20 LPA for the 3 years UG batch, INR 16 LPA for the 4 years UG batch, and INR 11.75 LPA for the 2 years PG batch. The NSUT engineering placements have been tabulated below

NSUT's top recruiters included Microsoft, Amazon, Texas Instrument, Google, Qualcomm, Cisco, Hero Moto Corp, etc. Overall, it’s a good choice to be considered after the top 7 NITz.
Why is CSE at NSIT considered better than CSE at DTU?
There are many reasons why some students prefer CSE at NSIT to CSE at DTU. I have listed some strong reasons below:
- NSIT has a smaller batch size which in turn means the level of competition faced by the students is comparatively low. You can get good job profiles way more easily than at an institute with a higher intake like DTU.
- NSIT awards you a degree from DU, one of the most globally recognized and reputed universities. This helps you pursue higher studies in foreign countries easily.
- Quite a few NSIT students are able to secure high packages in top companies like Facebook while DTU because of its large batch size has only a few that get 1 cr+ packages.
- One of the major reasons why someone would prefer NSIT over DTU is that it’s quite difficult to get a hostel in DTU especially if you are a resident of Delhi.
If you consider these reasons valid, go for NSIT instead of DTU.

Is BITS, Goa comparable to DTU and NSIT or other top NITs?
BITS Goa is a highly prestigious engineering college in India with amazing infrastructure and campus. It's the place that has given a number of startups and other opportunities to its students. Here is a general comparison of BITS Goa with DTU, NSUT, and other top NITs based on common parameters
Placements : BITS Goa's average package is around INR 30.37 LPA while DTU and NSIT have an average package of around INR 15 LPA that is half of BITS Goa average package.
Campus : BITS Goa is known to have the most beautiful campus in India spread across 180 acres with amazing infrastructure and facilities. Have a look at the beautiful building
Campus Life: BITS Goa has a vibrant campus life although much better than DTU and NSUT. Its annual cultural fest WAVES is held at a large scale and brings in a wave of fun activities.
Faculties : BITS Goa faculties are highly learned and very supportive of research work. They are a bit strict but that disciplines the students.
So, BITS Goa is the best option here!
Is NSIT a good college?
If I ever had the chance to choose between NSUT and DTU, I would always NSUT Delhi. Here are a few reasons supporting my opinion
- Placements : NSUT has some of the best placements in the country but the institute does not release the official data. From what I have heard, people get placed in top companies like Microsoft, Google, Adobe, Goldman Sachs, Royal Bank of Scotland, Samsung, Flipkart, Amazon, McKinsey & JPMC every year.
- DU degree: The tag of DU cannot be underestimated at all. It certainly gives you a certain edge over other colleges and makes higher studies abroad a lot easier.
- Crowd : NSIT (NSUT) has a very talented and diverse group of peers and you won’t find such a crowd in other engineering colleges. You will see a great bond between the juniors and seniors. The girl-to-boy ratio is much better compared to other engineering colleges too.
- Location : NSIT is located in Dwarka so you have easy access to places via Metro/Car. The closest station is Dwarka Mor.
Overall, NSUT Delhi will offer a unique college life experience and force you to come out of your comfort zone and explore new things. You will be busy organizing fests and exploring your non-academic passions here. The institute will teach you to manage your time and inculcate problem-solving skills. When you will leave college after 4 years, you will be a new leaf!
What is the average package offered at NSIT Delhi?
First of all, NSUT Delhi does not release its average package officially. The median package is rumored to be around INR 16 LPA. But the question is do these figures actually matter?
Your goal while joining NSUT or in fact any institute should be to explore all available opportunities and build a successful career rather than getting placed. NSUTis a highly prestigious institute that offers an abundance of opportunities and resources importing a great quality education. The campus life, crowd, and opportunities are top-notch. One must have a broader perspective to make the most out of the available resources.
It does have its own cons such as pathetic administration because it’s a government college. However, these situations only make you stronger to deal with this thing called life.
The job and package you secure depend on your skills, hard work, and dedication and not the field you choose. So choose wisely!
What is the placement scenario at NSIT for ICE stream? How much CGPA is required for a good placement?
Placements for ICE are both good and bad at NSUT-
- Core jobs are very less in number. Core companies visit the campus in very small numbers, offer very low packages, and you may end up working in some remote location.
- However, the overall placements are quite good and ICE students can get placed in multiple profiles like finance, marketing, analyst, software developer, etc. These profiles offer good packages and a metropolitan work location, mostly the Delhi NCR region. But for these offers, you will face competition from all the branches. You will get placed in a renowned organization if you start preparing from your 2nd year onwards. These profiles aren’t branch specific so there is a high competition.
Apart from talent, your grades will play a huge role during the placement process. Maintain an 8+ CGPA to be able to sit for majority company placements. Also, for candidates of equal caliber, the company uses CGPA as an important deciding factor during the selection process.
Thus, as an ICE student at NSUT , you will get good placement opportunities in various sectors other than your core sector.
