How is the EEE branch at the UIET Chandigarh?

PK
Pranav Kumar Posted On : May 24th, 2021
BE CSE, UIET Chandigarh (2018)

A good friend of mine has pursued EEE in UIET from Chandigarh. I reached out to him to catch up with some details and the latest facts. 

If you are wanting to go for IT/CSE- UIET, Chandigarh is a great choice. But if you want to pursue EEE at UIET, then it is not a good choice. If we talk about the placement scenario over there, barely one or two core companies show up for that. A bunch of candidates ends up getting placed in the IT sector- which isn't worth it.

Here are the recent placement statistics for the EEE branch at UIET.

Average CTC

6.5 LPA

Highest CTC

28 LPA

Opting for any other engineering college would be a better choice if you want to go for EEE. But then, if you have decided to strictly adhere to UIET, perhaps check out other branches like Chemical Engineering, CSE as they come along with a fine set of faculty and better placement stats.

How are the hostel and mess at UIET Chandigarh?

SR

BE Computer Science Engineering, University Institute of Engineering and Technology, UIET Chandigarh

Panjab University has a total of 8 boy's hostels and 10 girl's hostels (including 1 NRI hostel). Hostels are assigned to the students based on their AIR or by category. These rooms are two-tiered and Rooms on a guest basis are also available.

Now, let's take a look at the current state of boy's hostels, starting with the best.

  • Hostel 8, in all respects, is the best in terms of distance from the college (roughly a 50-meter walk) and the majority of the hostilities are from UIET itself, with some students from the BDS and MBA departments. 
  • The food served in the mess is average, but it is better than that served in some other hostels. The only disadvantage of living here is that the main university (AC Joshi Library, StuC Food Point) is nearly 1.6 kilometers away. 
  • Hostel Nos. 1, 2, and 3 will be a pleasant journey for you here at PU. It has all the advantages that a hostel should have, such as being close to the market, the StuC, the AC Joshi Library, and the mess here is quite pleasant (one the finest in PU). The food is about as good as it gets at home. The only issue with these hostels is the huge distance from college, i.e. 2.2 km. 
  • The other hostels are all the same. As far as known, they are the average ones.

Bus and e-rickshaw services are also available there for transportation.

Can a branch be upgraded in Thapar University Patiala and UIET Chandigarh on the basis of your first year CGPA?

MA
Madhav Aneja Posted On : August 3rd, 2023
Lived in Chandigarh, India

At Thapar University, the branch change does not depend on your CGPA. There is a separate process for the same.

  • The 1st year students have to give a December Test by the end of their 1st semester. The syllabus for this test is general class 12 PCM and the subjects covered in the 1st semester.
  • A list ranking all the students appearing for this test is made. Based on this list, a counseling session is held to fill in the vacant seats in all the branches.
  • In case of a tie, JEE Rank is given preference. 

So, if you are desperate to get your branch changed at Thapar University, all you need to do is prepare well for this particular test.

Food technology from UICET Chandigarh will be a better option for you. It has better scope in the future as compared to other streams.

The reason for choosing UICET is as follows:

  1. Placements: Around 70% of students got placed in Food Technology. The highest CTC offered was INR 10 LPA, the average CTC was INR 5.5 LPA and the lowest CTC was INR 3.5 LPA. Top recruiting companies like HPCL, Reliance, and Pepsi came for the campus placements. More than 50 companies visited the campus.
  2. Brand name: This college has got a great brand name because UICET is a part of Punjab University and is the oldest department while the UIET is a newly founded department. You will find a lot of alumni in this college for better guidance who are from the food technology field.
  3. Research work: This college also provides research work to undergraduate students. You can take the research work from the assistant professors. Many students do their research from outside organizations as well.
  4. Fees: The annual fees at UICET are INR 18000 per annum as this is a government-funded course. If you study biotechnology from UIET then the fees would be INR 80,000 per annum.

How are the hostels allotted in UIET Chandigarh?

SS
Shekhar Suman Posted On : May 28th, 2021
Bachelor in Engineering Electronics and Communication Engineering, UIET (2018)

Applications for hostels are submitted at the time of physical reporting. Filling up the forms is done during the counseling. It hardly takes 2-3 days till the final list of hostel allotments is verified and notified.

Following are the criteria needed to be met:

  • You will get a sit on the basis of your rank and category (SC, ST, EWS, Others). Last rankers do not get hostel even in the final year.
  • Every stream is provided with equal seats. The lower your rank, the higher your preference you receive.
  • Quota (SC, ST, OBC) plays an important role in your preference over non- quotas.
  • Political help can also work. You can put your issues out to some party and they would willingly help you in getting into the hostel.
  • You can stay on a guest basis but you will have to pay more than the actual residents.

You’ll get to know if you have your hostel allocated or not by UIET’s official site. The allocation list is uploaded after every round.

What should I opt for, an ECE at UIET Chandigarh or a CSE at CCET?

HK
Harpreet Kaur Posted On : May 28th, 2021
B.E Bachelor of Engineering in Computer Science and Engineering, Chandigarh College of Engineering a

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.
