Excellent infrastructure, qualified faculty, and great placements .
Placements: Students usually find themselves in non-tech and tech roles in companies like Google, Microsoft, etc. The package varies a lot, with the highest ones going above 50 LPA, while the median is around 11 LPA. Many students also go for research at IITs, IISc, or a foreign university.
Infrastructure: The whole campus has Wi-Fi. There are multiple labs for each subject. There is also a 3-floor library with a huge collection of books. Hostels are good with above-average mess. There are many eateries on campus, like Domino's, AMUL, and Mother Dairy. A health center is also there, and you can avail medicine from there. The sports ground has options for most of the games, and there is usually a sports event taking place.
Faculty: All the teachers are well qualified, some being in the top 1-2% in the world. Lectures usually accompany labs and tutorials for better understanding. Curriculum is regularly updated, and students can also join clubs/societies for working on real-life projects or gaining experience. Semester exams are moderately difficult. Though some sections may have stricter checking based on the teacher, relatively grading saves the day if you are studying well. The pass percentage may vary a lot with the subject. While some may only have 2-3 students failing, others may have only a 50-60% pass percentage.

No placement, bad teacher, good environment.
Placements: No placement literally, if you are not good at scoring, you will be asked to leave the college, as on average, students don't get placed here. prepare skill which could pay you in the future, otherwise have no hope. DTU placement is like okay and bad for average students.
Infrastructure: Nothing is available, not even cricket bats, for the students. We pay a 2.5 Lacs fee and get almost no facility at all. Everything is used, I don't know why they don't have any facilities, and the sports complex is crooked, like it seems like sometimes it's a 3-tier college.
Faculty: Some teachers are very good, but some are really bad, like they don't have any sense, they don't think about your career or life for a second. Most of them are egoistic and bad, they will only help the toppers, and they will never help you with anything.
Other: Make good friends and have a fun time, you only live once, enjoy.

DTU is one of the best engineering colleges in the nation.
Placements: Almost 60-70% students are placed in my batch, while the overall percentage of the batch is 85-90%, everyone who studies decently gets placed easily here. The highest package may go upto 85 LPA domestic, and the average is around 16-17 LPA. Google and Amazon are major recruiting companies.
Infrastructure: The classrooms are fully air-conditioned, and the labs are first class, it has all the instruments for experiments here. The quality of mess food is decent, and all the hostel buildings are decent, while some are very huge and beautiful. Not all the boys' hostels are actually air-conditioned, but APJ Abdul Kalam one is air-conditioned. The sports complex is huge, 17 acres, and the facilities are awesome.
Faculty: The teachers are highly qualified and supportive, while some of them might be arrogant, especially in the electrical department. The curriculum is somewhat outdated, and many students prepare for placement on their own. The semester exams are decently tough, you would have to study for 2 weeks beforehand in order to get a good CGPA.
Other: There are many events and fests going on in the campus throughout the year, like Engifest, Aahvaan, Invictus, yuvaan and many more small events.

Q:   Can I get DTU with 80 percentile in JEE Main via JAC Delhi?
A: 
Usually, the cutoff for DTU stays around 90, even for the reserved categories. Therefore, getting into B.Tech courses at DTU is difficult with a JEE Main percentile score of 90 or below. The cutoff also goes high and low every year, depending on the following factors: Number of aspirants registered, The difficulty level of the exam, Total number of seats available, total number of applications received for a particular program, and the category under which admission is sought. Therefore, it is very difficult to predict the exact cutoff and give an exact answer to this question.
Q:   Which entrance exam is accepted by DTU?
A: 

No, DTU does not conduct any entrance exam of its own for admission to any of the UG, PG or doctoral-level courses. Admission for the flagship BTech programme is based on JEE Main scores and the entire process of counselling are conducted by JAC Delhi. Further, DTU admission to all the remaining courses is mostly based on national/ university-level entrance exams, such as UCEED,  GATE,  CAT,  MAT and CMAT, among others. However, there are a few MBA specialised courses and BBA, admission to which is offered based on the past qualifying exam  (UG level) followed by an interview round.

Q:   Is DTU better than IITs for BTech?
A: 

There is no comparison of IITs with DTU owing to the brand name IITs have for being India's best government Engineering colleges. However, as per the 2023 NIRF ranking released for Engineering colleges, DTU is closely completing with some IITs. A comparison of the similarly ranked Engineering colleges on the basis of multiple components, such as fee and median package are tabulated below:

IIT Mandi33INR 8 Lacs - INR 10 lakh
INR 18 LPA - INR 21 LPA

NOTE: The placement and fee data mentioned in the above table are sourced from unofficial sources. Hence, it is indicative.

Q:   Which is best DTU or IIT Delhi?
A: 

DTU and IIT Delhi are one of the best engineering Universities/colleges available in India. The BTech college placements given to these college students are also best. DTU has been ranked at the 30th position under the engineering category & 62nd under the Overall category by NIRF 2025. Whereas IIT Delhi has been ranked at the 2nd position by the NIRF for 2025 under the Engineering category. In the end, it depends on students what's best for them. 

Q:   Which is a better option for BBA: IP University or DTU?
A: 

IP University is one of the decent options for BBA provided the student is pursuing it from one of the top colleges under GGSIPU (or IP University). Considering the fact that IPU is older and the reputation it has built for its BBA programme over the years, it can be taken as a better option out of the two. However, BBA from DTU has its own advantages, DTU is a public University and has a brand value of its own. Students must also do a quick comparison of the fee charged by both the universities and the average salary offered to the BBA passouts of IP University and DTU and then take a decision. To conclude, affordability, nearness (or location), commute and future objective behind choosing a college are some of the factors that you must consider before selecting a college.

On Infrastructure
Q:   What is the infrastructure like at Delhi Technological University (DTU) for the different engineering programs?
A: 

Delhi Technological University (DTU) has a good infrastructure and provides various facilities for students and teachers. Delhi Technological University (DTU) has a big library and for engineering students there are various labs and smart classrooms. Delhi Technological University has conference halls and provides state of the art infrastructural facilities to Engineering students.

Q:   How is the mess food at Delhi School of Management, DTU?
A: 

At DTU, they have 9 boys hostel and 3 girls hostel. Although each hostel has separate mess but after COVID period, only 3–4 hostel's mess are running.We are supposed to take monthly subscription of the mess. The mess charges are 2700 p.m. which is very decent. I don't think in this price we can get 4 meals in any other mess.

The quality of the food is pretty average, on some days it's decent (khaane layak rahta) but there are few days on which it's worse especially the lunch part, generally it is the worst meal of the day. The food is too spicy and the taste is also very bad.
