Hello Kavya,

If your main interest is in CSE , then go for CSE in MAIT via IPU .

Even though DTU is a better college overall, getting a branch you are not interested in (like Mechanical) may not keep you motivated. In the long run, branch matters more than college , especially in fields like computer science where there are many job opportunities.

But if you are open to learning coding on your own and want the DTU tag, you can still take Mechanical at DTU and try for branch change later (though it's not easy and depends on first-year performance), or you can learn coding side-by-side.

But to keep it simple:

• If CSE is your priority , go for MAIT CSE .

• If college name matters more to you , then you can think about DTU Mechanical .

Hope this helps !
