DIT: a decent private college for engineering.

Overall the college experience was fine the management always aimed at improving the standards and infra of the college.

I gave AIEEE examination and scored 90 marks my all India rank in the exam was around 72000. I opted for DIT as it was the best option (in this rank) available in my hometown, Dehradun.

Course curriculum was decent being in IT branch I expected that we will be taught the most current technologies, but sadly that was not the case with the University curriculum, as it was an older one.

During my course, for internship you had to look out on your own, or you could do a paid internship wherein companies like HP will teach you on a technology and charge a fee for that course.

I don't remember the exact figures but around 70-80% of students were placed. Companies like Infosys, WIPRO, Adobe, HCL, Headstrong, Orange, Samsung, Libsys etc came to the campus. The packages offered were of the range of 1.8 LPA to 5 LPA.

College celebrates events like Freshers party, farewell, college fest and many more small events like quizzes, painting competitions etc. Most of them are organized by student clubs.

Fee structure at my time was around 70K per year (excluding hostel) which was revised to around 1.2Lacs per year by year 2012. Considering the revise in the Fee it became a little expensive option.

As far as I know there was a concept of scholarship for people who scored above 90% in their 12th exams.

Campus life was cool in college we were expected to wear a uniform 4 days a week and 1 day was kept as casual day (casuals but not funky clothes were allowed). Gender ratio was also good as there were decent number of girls in all branches (25 to 30%). There is no discrimination with regard to race, religion, gender etc.

I did not stay in an Hostel but as far as reviews are concerned, hostel facilities are fine and adequate. If you want to stay outside college you can easily find PG's and rented accommodations ranging from 6K to 8K(including food) per person on twin sharing basis.

I did not have much interaction with seniors as I was not staying at the hostel if you stay inside campus then it is a chance that you will interact more with seniors.

Exams and labs were not very hectic it was a decent experience with the exams at times the University surprised us with off syllabus questions.

Faculty was decent there were few good teachers and others were average not the best teachers but most of them were very helpful student initiates were always encouraged.
