It seems that there is a shortage of faculty. I heard that Drdo scientists teach there. Personally I never been to DIAT pune .

I heard that the campus is very beautiful & Full with greenery(496 acres). Hostel is available for accommodation. One room is allotted to two students.

DRDO has marked DIAT as their recruitment  centre. But absorption in DRDO is still difficult because seats are very low. These course has narrow scope since very few private companies are defence manufacturer. Now a Days Mahindra Group, L &T  and TATA are getting orders from Defence so may be in future there is a demand of these kind of Professionals. I know some of the graduates of DIAT & they are leading the nation. One of such Alumni of DIAT is Tessy Thomas, The Missile Woman.
