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.

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.

BML Munjal University is better for CSE. The university offers five specializations with B.Tech CSE - Data Science & Artificial Intelligence, Internet of Things, Automobile Engineering, Cyber Security, and Robotics & Automation. To keep up with the ever-evolving trends in the industry, BMU recently incorporated Microsoft Intelligent Cloud Hub (ICH) programs in the curriculum.
The university has partnerships with leading universities like Carleton University, Ashton University, North South University, and many others. CSE department of BMU also collaborates with industries working in the areas of Machine Learning, Artificial Intelligence, and Data Science.
BML Munjal University placements of recent years show the highest CTC offered for CSE is around INR 40 LPA. Wipro, TCS, Deloitte, Google, etc. are among the major recruiters that take part in the placement drive.
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.
