College life at Delhi Technological University.

Placements: Delhi Technological University (DTU) has a strong placement record, with top companies like Microsoft, Google, Amazon, and Deloitte recruiting students.

Infrastructure: DTU boasts a vast campus with modern labs, smart classrooms, a well-stocked library, sports complexes, and auditoriums. Hostels offer Wi-Fi, mess facilities, common rooms, and 24/7 security. There are separate hostels for boys and girls, with options for single, double, and triple occupancy rooms, ensuring a comfortable stay. Though few students complain about the mess in the food.

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.

The campus is good. The salary packages are lower in core branches.

Placements: The placement options for core branches are average to low, while the campus environment is decent but sometimes overcrowded. There are a lot of faculty members, and the academic workload is relatively easy. However, very few students secure on-campus internships in biotech; those in technical branches have better chances of landing roles as software development engineers (SDEs), analysts, or consultants, with limited opportunities in core roles.

Infrastructure: Wi-Fi connectivity is unreliable, and the labs in my department are either average or below par. The classrooms are generally in poor condition, except for the AB building. The food spots are excellent, sports facilities are adequate, and the hostel accommodations are good, though the mess is not up to the mark. The library is small and often overcrowded, but the available books are satisfactory. Air conditioning works well, but the Wi-Fi issues persist.

Faculty: Most instructors are Ph.D. holders, and the teaching mainly focuses on theory, particularly in core branches. The theoretical approach does not adequately prepare students for the industry, necessitating additional learning outside the curriculum. Semester exams tend to be average in difficulty—not too easy, but not overly challenging either. The passing percentage is around 33% to 35%, and the grading system follows a CGPA format.

Dissatisfied with the curriculum because it lacks practical applications.

Placements: Placement statistics this year, are above average, and branches like software engineering have secured. Placements for the majority of the students enrolled. Biotechnology also had an average turnout. In my course more than 15 students were placed, with the highest package being more than 16 LPA, and internship states were poor with minimum on-campus offers for biotechnology.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure is good. Classrooms are equipped with projectors for a better teaching experience. Labs have modern instruments but are not at par with the name of DTU, and new instruments are required with proper maintenance. Wi-Fi is available but the speed is maximum near the library area. The canteen is good with diverse options, and sports facilities are also good.

Faculty: The curriculum as far as my opinion is concerned is very average for biotechnology, it needs to be more hands-on to teach students more about bioinformatics tools. They are rigid, and not very helpful though we are knowledgeable. The curriculum is more on theoretical knowledge but lacks practical application, certain subjects are very tough but the overall pass average is decent.

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.
