Indira Gandhi Delhi Technical University for Women (IGDTUW)

Indira Gandhi Delhi Technical University for Women (IGDTUW) is primarily known for its engineering and technology programs. However, as of my knowledge cutoff in September 2021, IGDTUW does not offer a Post Graduate Diploma in Management (PGDM) program.

IGDTUW offers various undergraduate, postgraduate, and doctoral programs in fields such as engineering, technology, architecture, and applied sciences. While it may not have a specific PGDM program, it's important to note that the suitability of any institution for a particular programme can vary based on several factors, including the faculty, curriculum, industry connections, and overall reputation.

If you are specifically interested in pursuing a PGDM program, I would recommend exploring other reputed business schools or institutions that offer PGDM programs. Conduct thorough research by considering factors such as accreditation, faculty expertise, placement opportunities, curriculum, industry collaborations, and alumni networks to determine which institution aligns best with your career goals and aspirations.

It's always a good idea to review the official websites of the institutions you are considering.

IGDTUW placement has an impressive track record for facilitating recruitment programmes at the University. The IGDTUW the highest package received was INR 82 LPA. IGDTUW average package received by 40% of students is 14.5 LPA. After their internships, some 35 students have already received offers from Microsoft of 51 LPA packages.

Indira Gandhi Delhi Technical University for Women Delhi placement 2023 is ongoing. As per the IGDTUW New Delhi placement data till October 2022, a total of 751 offers were made, 207 pre-placement offers and 156 full-time offers were made. Big companies like Mc Kinsey and Bain and Company have extended their full-time offers to many final-year students. The highest international package received by the students of IGDTUW is INR 1.2 CPA.

What is your review of Indira Gandhi Delhi Technical University For Women?

It’s going to be a bit long because I am what I am because of this college.

I passed out from IGIT (now IGDTUW) in 2011 from Mechanical and Automation Engineering. Let me touch on all of the factors that you mentioned (although every aspect is fairly well explained by Aayushi Khandelwal)

Infrastructure: Well ventilated buildings, large campus, metro station nearby, bus stop just behind the college and a really beautiful and grand Auditorium (memories are made here). The construction is of British Era. The admin block used to be a jail (you can figure this out if you’ve ever gone there looking for store keeper).

Library: Not that great but still has enough resources to get you through the semester. And if you feel the books aren’t enough in numbers, photostat shops come to the rescue and they’re inside the campus.

Laboratories: The labs were well-equipped when I was there (we did break some stuff while performing experiments). A large number of equipments were purchased during our time and the last time I was there it felt like an IIT laboratory. They’ve caught up with this stuff really well now. IGDTUW has now got industry supported projects going on at least in the Mechanical Department (funded by Fluor Daniel), I am not sure about deptts.

Academics: Faculty can be divided into two categories; Excellent and Very good. Professors have in depth knowledge of their subjects and they impart it perfectly to students. Some of them may not be that good at teaching but their knowledge is good. Again this is comparative. I know the same to be true for other branches as well.

Researches: HOD of Mechanical deptt. during our time, Dr. Chitra Sharma, had 20 research papers published in International Journals and many more in national and international conferences. Publishing in Mechanical Engineering is difficult than Computer Science because of the scale of the project and investment, so research in CS is far more widespread than MAE. You want to publish a research paper, you just reach out to the professors and they’ll help you get one published and you may also end up being a publisher in an international journal.

Placements: The world is always in need of women engineers and hence the placement graph never goes too low here. Where would you find female mechanical engineers in the world? ! The packages are good. Some are even better than DTU (specifically CS). Mechanical has seen a placement of 8lacs p.a. and the average comes around 5lacs (this was around 6 years ago and it’s bound to improve every year) which is good as a starting salary in this field. CS is like the brightest shining star, above 10lacs p.a. is normal and it has touched 20lacs p.a. as well.

Timings: On paper 9–5. But not very strict. You’re free from your lab early, leave. Don’t feel like attending the last lecture, leave. But just don’t let your attendance drop too low. That’s not nice.

Events: Something you should always look out for. SAE Mini BAJA, Formula One model are two major events that IGIT has always been a part of and has almost always won a prize for, then there are events involving solar powered cars that IGDTUW has participated in and the list is extending every year. Then you have various robotics event which are vey exciting as you get to build your own robot. The fests are a grand affair and also give you an excuse to bunk a boring lecture ;). In short it’s a happening place.

Comparison with IIT, NIT, DTU: I always say, if you’re a girl and you wanna study engineering in Delhi, prioritise your colleges like this:

IIT Delhi

DTU/IGDTUW (depends if you get your favourite branch)

Other colleges

It is known as IIT for Girls. We’ve been addressed by this name at IITD for the award function for the prestigious Kalpana Chawla award.It makes you that strong independent woman that you’ve always dreamt of being.
