DTU honest opinion as a fresher.
Placements: The Biotechnology programme placements are generally high as per previous year data, but it may vary year to year. The highest package offered in this branch was 31 LPA as per my knowledge and the lowest packages range around 6-8 LPA. Most of the time, the pharmaceuticals companies, research organizations, and healthcare systems comes to DTU for recruitment, for example, Cipla, Biocon, Nestle, Unilever, etc. The roles offered to the students are research scientist, biotechnologist, quality control analyst, process engineer, regulatory affair specialist, and product development manager. Many students opt to go for further studies like M.Teach and MBA for better opportunities because there are very few companies that give better pay but after Masters, the pay out significantly increases.
Infrastructure: The department buildings are pretty average; don't expect anything cool or innovative there, and the overall infrastructure is really good. As I'm a day scholar, I personally don't have any idea of hostels, but freshers get Type 3 and Aryabhatta hostels, and it is said that there will be 3 students per room, but my friend said that there are 5 students in a room, so he also moved from the hostel and is living in a flat nearby. The mess food is below average. The canteen is overpriced according to the quality. And the rest of the sports facility is decent, but you can't borrow equipment from the college on Tuesday and Thursday.
Faculty: My experience at DTU is mixed right now; some teachers are really cooperative, and some don't bother to solve the doubts and care about their salary. As I'm a fresher, I personally don't know about the relevance of the curriculum, but when I researched it and asked seniors about it, they denied it; they said only your skills matter at the end of the day to get placed in a good company.

Infrastructure: The labs of DTU are highly advanced. The campus is fully wified and acified. We have also 3 libraries that open for 24 hrs. We also have 11 hostel for boys and 3 for girls.

Faculty: The teachers of DTU is very helpful and qualified. There is no loads of attendance. We can easily bunk any class. Teachers of DTU prepare us to solve practical problems related to industry. It is easy to pass every semester because we can do cheating. Pass percentage in CSE is 80%. That's why DTU college life is called hill.
Other: I chose this course because in CSE we can easily get internship and job. We have too fest like Aahvan, Yuvaan, Summit, Aarmabh, etc.

DTU gives a lot of opportunities to students .
Placements: In our department, a few students (30–40%) were placed in the core field, and 50–70 percent were placed in the tech or non-tech field. The highest package in the core field is INR 8 lacs, the average package is INR 4-6 lacs, and the lowest package is INR 2-4 lacs, and the role offered is GET.
Infrastructure: The facilities and infrastructure are too good and amazing for our department or course. They did not provide good Wi-Fi/internet connection in labs, library and classrooms. The quality of the food is too good and the taste is better; they also provide good medical facilities.
Faculty: The teachers were highly qualified and knowledgeable and they were also helpful and supportive towards the students and always ready to solve their problems. Their teaching quality is the best. The semester exam at the college is not that tough but the passing mark is 50 percent.

Bad placements, but labs are very good .
Placements: Placement is not good in the biotechnology branch; around 40 percent is placed now, and the current situation is so bad. Many companies are not allowing this branch to sit in placement drives; 20 percent of students get internships; and a lot of students do masters in this field.
Infrastructure: All departments are now building new blocks recently, and they are very large and designed with a nice look. There are also lifts available in the new building and the old building, and the library and hostel food that the mess provides is of decent quality, as is a canteen.
Faculty: The faculty is not good. They were very strict about taking attendance and deducting exam marks, and they forced you to do a project with very hard marking and research. The course curriculum was difficult to study, and the teachers' quality was always good, but they were strict.

    With a CRL rank of 381260, there is little chance of getting CSE in DTU or NSIT. However, you may get ECE, civil, or mechanical with this score. 

    DTU, NSIT, and IIIT-Delhi consider the All India CRL rank for admission, not any category rank. However, candidates with a category rank can get seats base

    DTU ask for an aggregate of 60% or more in PCM and passing them along with English in class 12th. So, given that you percentage in boards is 70%, you are eligible for DTU admission counselling process.
