Experience of IIT Delhi 2024.
Placements: The internship opportunities we are given are the best in India. As students, we can opt for internships at any company with respective fields of interest, with a great stipend of 100,000 to 400,000. Students get eligible for internships after the 2nd semester, and for job placements, they are eligible after the 7th semester. The percentage of students getting placed is seventy to eighty percent. My plan is to excel in this degree.

The hostel room we were given is very small in living area, where two or three students live, and they provided us with a desk, chair, cupboard, and B.Ed. The meal quality is good, but the taste and variety are not that great.

On Comparisons
Q:   Which college is better for B.Tech in Mechanical Engineering: IIT Delhi or IIT Bombay?
A: 

The course outline of mechanical in IIT Delhi or IIT Bombay is similar and is quite well aligned with the course structure of top ranked international universities and the mechanical is one of the most desired and demanded branches in the IITs. The universities stand on similar QS ranking level and the facility and quality of infrastructure on average is almost the same in both the campuses, IITB has a lake, a pretty larger campus than that of IITD whereas IITD stands in a very desired location of Delhi ( in Hauz Khas) which stands very close to the international airport and various railway stations and is comparatively very green and clean than the outer Delhi. The trends of placement or students going for further studies differ very less and if you are really relying on placements to be a deciding factor, you'll still be in doubt. If we look at the opening and closing ranks of the department in both the colleges, the mechanical in IITB opens before it starts at IITD and also closes some numbers before, but the range is quite same. Many people choose IITB for its past trend or some local variables and similarly people also choose IITD if they aspire to go for civil services as Delhi is the hub for the preparation for UPSC and other civil services and again the accessibility of the nearby regions. I'd say both of the campus stand on the same level if the department is considered, the selection is totally depend on the individual depending on the local variables that affects him/her.

Q:   Which is better among IIT Delhi and IIT Bombay for MTech?
A: 

Candidates can check out the ROI calculation based on the course fee and average package to decide, which is better among IITD and IITB. A comparison between both the institutes is presented below based on NIRF ranking and fee:

NOTE: The fee mentioned above is taken from an unofficial source. Hence, is indicative.

Q:   Why is IIT Delhi one of the best Engineering institutes in India and abroad?
