What should I choose: NIT Jalandhar mechanical or UIET Chandigarh CSE?
Mechanical Engineering and Computer Science are two completely different fields. Rather than a brand name, you should choose a branch based on your interests. A bright future requires you to be happy, which requires you to work on projects that you enjoy.
According to reports, NIT Jalandhar is a good institute. The CSE program at UIET Chandigarh is unquestionably excellent.
How is IIIT Bhubaneswar CSE? Is it better than NIT Patna IT and UIET CSE?
As a student of UIET CSE, I will share some merits and demerits of the same with you-
Merits-
- If you are a good coder, UIET offers decent placement opportunities in the CSE branch.
- There is a 24*7 library facility.
- You’ll get the ‘Panjab University’ tag.
- It is located in Chandigarh which is a serene, beautiful, and well-planned city.
- Your personality and leadership qualities will improve.
Demerits-
- The teaching environment isn’t good. You’ll have to learn by yourself, regardless of branch.
- The tag of ‘IITs’ or ‘NITs’ holds much more significance.
- You might not get the desired placement. In that case, you’ll be sitting for some competitive exam. For a placement in 4.5-5 LPA slab, you’ll have to work hard.
NIT Patna IT is a good option because it offers good placements and an NIT tag. As far as IIIT Bhubaneswar CSE is concerned, you can check all the information related to it and compare it with the other two.
What should I opt for, an ECE at UIET Chandigarh or a CSE at CCET?
If you are eligible for both streams, it is important to keep in mind that both are tier 2 colleges. According to my friends at the institutes, these colleges don’t see many core companies in the campus placement even for the CSE branch. Most of the recruiting companies are IT consultancies or Tech Support.
Hence, if you opt for ECE in UIET you will probably end up working in Deloitte or Infosys, or MU-Sigma. Therefore, it is advisable to stay close to the main campus of PU. This will also help you in enjoying your college life to the fullest.
While on the other hand, if you are passionate about coding and want to become a software engineer, then UIET and CCET, both see various kinds of young startups that recruit Software Developers as well as Designers. If this is the case, you must opt for CSE in CCET as a lot of subjects that are required for software development are not taken up in ECE because of PU’s curriculum, for example, AI, Data Structures, DBMS are considered only in CSE but not in ECE.
Which will be a better choice, CSE at UIET Hoshiarpur or EEE at UIET Chandigarh?
The choice between CSE and EEE is subjective and totally depends on you. Keep aside your confusion about these colleges and give a thought to what you want to pursue by outlining the major factors that drive your interest the most.
You should rather explore the curriculum, campus, placements, packages offered, faculty, etc. of both the colleges in that particular field.
Both UIET Hoshiarpur and UIET Chandigarh provide a degree from Punjab University. I guess the highlighted difference you would find are the cities in which they are located and the campus life. Here’s a brief insight into the courses.

The question here arises whether or not you want to pursue higher studies after going for EEE. EEE in UIET would not provide you with good placements. Go for CSE at Hoshiarpur if you have no other options.
You can consider other options too if you have them.
