Living by Truth

When it comes to engineering placements, PEC ranks far higher than NIT Jalandhar. However, the branch is extremely important. Nowadays, if you major in CSE, you will earn significantly more than if you majored in Mechanical/Civil, for example. However, when comparing the same branches between PEC and NIT, PEC stands out.

According to recent media reports, the highest package offered during Punjab Engineering College placement in 2022 was INR 64.5 LPA to 7 students. In addition, the average package offered in 2022 was INR 13.5 LPA. The participating recruiters placed 509 college students in various sectors such as software, consulting, analytics, and so on. Apple, Microsoft, Arcesium, American Express, and JP Morgan & Co. were among the top recruiters for PEC Chandigarh 2022.

Cons-

  • Technical events resemble cultural events

  • No assistance is provided for training.

  • Marks matter more than general excellence. Everyone is in a war to secure the highest CGPA.

  • The 75% attendance rule works against the favour of many students.

So we can say that the merits overshadow the demerits to a great extent. In fact every NIT has similar cons which are almost uncontrollable. So just be a great learner and focus on your own betterment.

Which is better, NIT Jalandhar or Thapar University?

MA
Madhav Aneja Posted On : August 18th, 2023
Lived in Chandigarh, India

Anyone who has the chance to get admission to Thapar University should definitely prefer it to NIT Jalandhar. It’s one of the best private engineering colleges in India. However, Indians have many false notions regarding it just because of its high fees. In reality, Thapar University fees and BITS Pilani fees are more or less the same. 

There are false rumors circulating regarding the Thapar University admission process and many claim that it’s not transparent and there are a lot of conspiracies involved. However, it’s just like any other private university, only better than others. 

Thapar University's curriculum and faculty are excellent. So I will advise you to choose it unless you get the top 7–8 IITs, top 5 NITs, and BITS Pilani.

Below are the different parameters:

It is situated outside of the city. Nearly 20 km separate the ISBT Jalandhar campus from the city railway station. The closest market for your daily needs shopping is in the city of Bidhipur.
  • Food: The hostel food is standard. but it's still superior to a lot of NITs. On campus, there are some canteen facilities. You are free to eat whatever you want there.
  • Hostels: It is a good idea. This year, they are getting better. Additionally, as a student, you'll find it to be generally comfortable.

What is your advice for a fresher at NIT Jalandhar?

AD
Ayushi Das Posted On : January 2nd, 2023
B. Tech. in Bachelor of Technology in Electronics and Communications Engineering & Computer Programming, Dr. B. R. Ambedkar National Institute of Technology, Jalandhar ( NITJ ) (Graduated 2016)

There are a few things you should attend to: Although academics is not the only aspect of your life there, it is the most significant. Maintain a CGPA of at least 7.39 (or 70%). Try to make it to at least most of the lectures. The consequences of skipping practical exams are severe. One night of study the night before the test won't always be helpful. Although they may make you a hard worker, they cannot discipline you. Even though engineering is a difficult subject to master, it is not insurmountable. You can easily pass it if you consistently study.

There are many things you should enjoy. The college's lifeblood is its LIBRARY. This place has a lot to offer. Read consistently. There are countless books you'll like that aren't academic. The practice of getting the book issued will instill in you the values of punctuality and empathy.

TECH FEST & CULTURAL FEST are not just for entertainment; they are also for participation and creation. You ought to take an active part. Events take place throughout the day, and gaming occurs at night (Tech Fest). You should unquestionably join organizations and societies like LADS, SAE, MADS, Fine Arts, etc. This college places a strong emphasis on athletics. You have a sizable field, lovely basketball and volleyball courts, a running track, The Gymnasium, and The Gym for bodybuilding. Except for Mega Boys Hostel, every hostel has its own badminton court and TT hall.

One of the key things that students look for is placements. Get ready for it right away. Develop your interactive abilities right away. Students often lament their lack of English proficiency despite coming from a Hindi-medium school. Your B. Tech. life's second and third years will lay the groundwork for the placements. You must therefore have clear concepts. After the first year is over, set a clear objective. You make the decision at this time as to whether you want to pursue private employment or government employment. Start your GATE, IES, or IAS preparation in the second semester because this is when the exam syllabus is covered.

When it comes to labs and professors, they are knowledgeable but strict. Backlog is much more likely, and attendance is extremely important. Now if you look at the placement record. In recent years, placement has been ideal. About half of the batch is being placed. 

Textile engineering has a placement rate of 54.17%. Students are mostly placed in core companies such as Trident, Reliance Manufacturing, Reliance Petrochemical, Nahar Textile, and others.

How is NIT Jalandhar for ECE?

VS
Vibhu Sharma Posted On : January 2nd, 2023
Studied at NIT Jalandhar

Avoid choosing NIT Jalandhar if your goal is to study ECE for the sake of studying ECE sincerely and devotedly.

ECE at NIT Jalandhar emphasizes placement, specifically in an IT company. As an ECE student, you'll be expected to perform exceptionally well in coding and other CSE-related courses. Additionally, the compensation packages provided by core businesses fall well short of what an ECE student would expect, further decreasing the appeal of ECE core.

It is recommended that you choose another institute if you're passionate about electronics and want to pursue a successful career in the field rather than NITJ.
