One of my friends was in an exact situation 2 years back and had to choose between NIT Trichy, Warangal, DTU, and NSIT. Let me give you an unbiased answer, with the details I got from him. First of all, we need to keep in mind that every institute has its pros and cons.
Pros and Cons of NIT Trichy
- NIT Trichy has a highly experienced faculty.
- Students graduating from NIT will hold the prestigious NIT tag, which can sometimes be valuable.
- Students here are very enthusiastic. They get involved in projects, interactive clubs. They also have a decent coding culture.
- Placements at NIT Trichy are really great. There are 1 to 2 reputed firms that visit only the top 3 NITs after IITs.
- Due to its location, they lack proper industrial exposure. Seminars and internship opportunities mostly depend on that. However, things are developing and growing there.
- If you are North Indian, you might find it difficult to adjust to the food, culture, weather, etc.
Pros and cons of DTU and NSIT
- They have a great industrial exposure and brand name.
- If you are not a hardcore CSE inclined student and might want to pursue MBA later, this is the right place for you.
- Excellent coding culture and options for research projects in IIT-D or IIIT-D.
- Superb placements and by famous companies like Microsoft, Google, etc.
- Their faculty is average, as mentioned by the students.
- The demand for CSE batch results is more competitive.
My friend chose DTU because of their senior-junior interaction, which had been a legacy since it was DCE, which makes up more than for any negative point. DCE Coders and DCE Programmers are great examples of this.
