PEC Chandigarh: Students' Opinion

AI-Generated Summary based on 36 Reviews

Punjab Engineering College (PEC) offers admissions based on the All India Rank (AIR) from the JEE Main exam, requiring a rank under 50,000, with a preference for ranks under 40,000 for popular streams like Computer Science Engineering (CSE). The admission process, managed by JoSAA/CSAB, involves three rounds of counseling and in-person document verification. The faculty is well-qualified, with a focus on both theory and practical applications, though there are concerns about the age of some faculty members.

The faculty-to-student ratio is about 1:60, which may affect learning. The semester fee is Rs. 94,000, with a 10% annual increase expected. Hostel fees are Rs. 77,000 annually, and mess fees are Rs. 3,500 per month. Scholarships are available for students from economically weaker sections, reserved categories, and meritorious students, with full tuition waivers for branch toppers. The college also offers financial aid for students from low-income families and those with disabilities.

Placement opportunities at PEC are strong, with over 150 companies visiting annually, including top recruiters like Apple, Microsoft, and Amazon. The highest package offered recently was 84 LPA, with an average package ranging from 8-16.7 LPA. For CSE, the average package is around 25 LPA, while for Electronics and Communication Engineering (ECE) and Electrical Engineering (EE), it is approximately 18.7 LPA and 15.3 LPA, respectively. The placement rate is between 82-95%, and internships, especially in the 6th semester, are integral to the curriculum, with companies like Goldman Sachs and Microsoft offering stipends up to 1.25 LPA.

Can one take ELE at PEC Chandigarh and then learn coding by himself in his free time and then get placed in an IT company like Microsoft, Google, Amazon etc.?

Supriya Sarkar
Payel DeyB.E. Electrical Engineering, Punjab Engineering College, Chandigarh

I have two friends who are Electrical Engineering graduates from PEC and are currently working in a good IT company. One of them was also among the only two people who cracked directly written. 

Being from an electrical background, it can be tough to learn coding in your free time and also cope up with your syllabus and keep your grades high. But if you are persistent you can definitely do it. You might also need to study some CS/IT subjects like DBMS while learning to code. As many students of the institute suggest to secure a job in an IT company you have to take off-campus routes, as most of the top companies are not open for interviews for the Electrical branch at PEC Chandigarh. 

But yes, it is possible to land a job at an IT company even after completing ELE if you can learn to code properly and work hard enough to make yourself prepare for the job.

How is electrical engineering and mechanical engineering at the PEC, Chandigarh? Is it worth it?

Anuraag MishraB.Tech Mechanical Engineering, Punjab Engineering College, Chandigarh

Both Electrical Engineering and Mechanical Engineering at PEC Chandigarh are great options. You should choose one of these courses based on your preference. The placement opportunities offered are similar, except Mechanical students are allowed for less number of coding job profiles. So, if you are interested in coding, choosing Electrical will be better. According to PEC Chandigarh placement highlights of recent years, the average CTC for these branches stays in the range of INR 5-12 LPA.

Is the electrical course better than the mechanical course at PEC in Chandigarh?

Rohan Basustudied at Punjab Engineering College, Chandigarh (2019)

Two years ago, one of my friends was in the same situation. He could have taken electrical and sit for every company’s placements. If he chooses mechanical, then only core opportunities are open. Given the circumstances, he chose electrical in the first round of counseling. It was so because he would at least get a chance to sit in almost every business. 

Sitting in a good company does not guarantee a good job, and mechanical engineering at PEC is far superior to that of many NITs and even IITs. Trusting his seniors and teachers, he switched to mechanical on the spot round to which he doesn't regret till now. 

If you're interested in electrical, go for it. Since my friend had no particular interest in any of these subjects, he preferred mechanical over electrical.

What should be the spot round cut off for Electrical branch in PEC Chandigarh?

Imran MalhotraB.Tech Computer Science and Engineering, Punjab Engineering College, Chandigarh

The cutoffs are released after the spot round. So, it’s difficult to say what is the required cutoff for Electrical branch in the spot round at PEC Chandigarh. 

But assuming that you are from the open/general category, these are the starting cut-off ranks for recent years.

Since the number of seats in PEC is the same as last year (no increase or decrease) you can expect fairly the same ranks this year too. So, work hard and make sure you get in the rank range.

What should be preferred, CS at Thapar Patiala or Electrical Engineering at PEC Chandigarh?

Sakshi ChaudharyStudied at PEC Chandigarh (2019)

As these are two distinct branches of engineering, you should pursue a topic that piques your interest.

  • CS is primarily concerned with software, whereas EE is more concerned with hardware.
  • Fees may be high, but consider it an investment because if you learn and perform well, your first year's salary will pay for four years of education and beyond.
  • However, listen to your heart and natural instincts.
  • A CS graduate has more demand than an Electrical graduate. This is due to the rapid and constant growth of the corporate world.
  • Electrical Engineering students can also sit for placements of both core and IT firms.
Categories CS at Thapar Patiala Electrical at PEC Chandigarh
Course Fee 13.23 lakh 6.39 lakh
Highest CTC 20 LPA 8-10 LPA
Average CTC 11 LPA 6 LPA
Recruiting Companies Wipro, Infosys, TCS, IBM, etc. Phillips, L&T, JP Morgan, TCS, etc.

It all depends on what you're interested in. If you are interested in CS, then choose Thapar (if fees are not an issue) or electrical in PEC Chandigarh.
