Remarks

Need to attract more talent in terms of research from faculty point of view.

Entrance Preview

I took AIEEE - 2537 (all india rank) and 105 (State rank)PEC has a good outlook to other career options,not just limited to Engineering prospects,may it be MBA/Civil Services/GRE or any other. Had option to go for all the colleges in India,even BITS Pilani (Mechanical, 1st counselling). Admission process dealt with AIEEE all india rank to fill seats.

Course Curriculum Overview

Course curriculum doesn't give too much of flexibility to opt for different courses till 3rd year.

Internships Opportunities

I went for research internships at IIT Madras and IIT Delhi. Companies majorly coming, highest paying were (for circuit branches)Microsoft 20k,Goldman Sach 20k,Texas Instruments 15k.

Placement Experience

Decent number of companies come,almost 100% placements with 2 offers for each for circuit branches. Companies Google,Microsoft,Goldman Sach,Deloitte,Texas Instruments,Samsung,ST Microelectronics and etc.

College Events

TechFest Vyom 3 days,Cult Fest Pecfest 3 days and many events celebrate in this college.

Fees and Financial Aid

Each branch has 5-6 scholarships every semester merit- merit cum means SC/ST scholarships college topper scholarship kalpana chawla scholarship in aeronautical some other scholarships as well.

Campus Life

Campus life,gender ratios,diversity have NRI quota as well etc are superb. Specially many clubs etc like NSS,Robotics,Sports,Lez AmisImages,PhotographyHindi,English Language club. Many more.

Hostel Facilities

4.5

Almost all are single rooms in all the hostels. Breakfast is superb paranthas,still miss them.

External Expense: Rs.2000 - Rs.4000

Alumni/Alumna

Not that cool,as PEC intakes very less number of students each year and most of them chose to move to higher educations.

Faculty

4.5

Though courses are good and staff is also good. Some decent PHDs. Some superb course under Prof. Ajay Mittal (C/Graphics) and Dr. Divya Bansal (Networking) in CS. Students willingness plays most important role,though some great MOUs signed with foreign in

My review of PEC Chandigarh

Course Curriculum Overview:

For improvement in teaching methods, they can go digital, like using smartboards, or use more practical teaching methods, or maybe just improve the way of teaching simply. Teaching methods here really need upgrades, mostly students here have to rely on youtube when exams come near.

Pec is still worth it

Placement Experience:

The placements have been lowered by 10-20% recently, but they are getting better. You will get a job if you manage cgpa above 7 and are decent with your skills, but then don't dream for 20lpa + jobs, you need to work upon yourself in silence to get 25-50 lpa packages and they do happen in our colleges, highest package in electrical 2024-25 was 52 lpa and in ece cse they had 61 lpa. Companies start coming in 3rd year for internships, only 10% manage to get intern in 3rd year, companies like microsoft, atlassian, flipkart, mercedes, jp morgan etc. they do come. Placement perecentage is like 75-80% in electrical and it is very low in civil (around 40-50%), in cse it is like 90% or even higher. My plan is to get an intern asap. (Maybe in 2nd year theough offcampus)

Pec is still worth it

I chose this college because of the fees and legacy of college, it is more than 100 years old and everyone in the industry knows about it, the fees is low compared to others. the campus is decent 150 acres which is comparatively better than other government colleges (though if u want better campus and can pay high, go for thapar). I applied to thapar, IIITs but at the end chose here. I was rejected from NIT delhi due to rank (college tag is more valuable of NIT). Admission process is only through josaa and csab, only online (after jee mains). And cse at pec is very popular, along with ece....Read More
