HPTU has its own popularity from some of the colleges under its name. All the colleges are not up to the mark when certain things like Faculty, placement, infrastructure, or alumni are considered.

On the other hand, Chandigarh University (CU) holds a great reputation. It has great placement records in North India. So it is recommended that among the two opt for CU as it will prove to be beneficial to your career.

B.Tech Production and Industrial Engineering, Punjab Engineering College, Chandigarh (2019)

The University of Chandigarh and Punjab Engineering College are equally good. It finally depends on you and what you are passionate about, as chemical engineering has a broader curriculum than IE. 

Students opting for Chemical Engineering can specialize in the fields of Heat Transfer, Fluid Mechanics, Polymer Science & Technology, Energy Management, Biochemical Engineering, Separation Processes, Reaction Engineering, Pulp and paper, and Environmental Engineering. 

Industrial Engineering is somewhat similar to Mechanical Engineering but not quite. Students will get to learn about manufacturing processes, manufacturing systems, systems engineering, IT, Networks, basic shop floor communications, and much more.

In the following table, you will get basic information about the colleges - 

Category

Chandigarh University (CE)

PEC (PIE)

Fees

INR 4.80 LPA

INR 3.46 LPA

Recruiters 

SABIC, Sinopec, ExxonMobil, Formosa Plastics, LyondellBasell Industries, DuPont, Bayer, Evonik Industries, Toray Industries

Trident, Maruti, JP Morgan, Loreal, Mu Sigma, Amazon, Exxon Mobil, Maruti Suzuki, Airbus, Hero Motocorp, Tata, L&T, Goldman Sachs, Maruti, McKenzie, Aakash IIT-JEE, ABB, ACC, Fiat, Sandisk, Eicher, Volvo, Minda, Reliance, Microsoft, Google, Yahoo, IBM, SAP, MISYS, Chase

Highest CTC

INR 15 LPA

INR 9 LPA

Average CTC

INR 8.75 LPA 

INR 5 LPA 

Lowest CTC 

INR 3.6 LPA

INR 3.5 LPA

But the Production and Industrial Engineering Branch of Punjab Engineering College is better. It also gives lots of opportunities to students both in education and placement. Also, even if you go for chemical engineering, you will for IE.

Therefore, choosing Production and Industrial Engineering from Punjab Engineering College, Chandigarh is a better option than Chemical Engineering of Chandigarh University, as it has more opportunities.

Studied Chandigarh University (2018)

Himachal Pradesh University (HPU) is a well-renowned government university that offers quality education to students. However, when it comes to placements, there have been instances where the university has not performed as well as expected. It's important to note that placement outcomes are not solely dependent on the university, but also on other factors such as location, curriculum, alumni network, and industry relations.

On the other hand, if you choose to enroll in Chandigarh University, you can expect to be offered more industry-oriented and up-to-date courses that can increase your chances of getting a good placement. You will also have access to a dedicated placement cell that will assist you in finding job opportunities. It's important to note that there may be competition from Computer Science Engineering (CSE) students during placements, but if you have the required skills and knowledge, you can certainly succeed.

There are many successful MCA graduates from Chandigarh University who have secured good placements in reputed companies. If you are looking to secure a bright future, opting for CU may be a good choice for you. It's important to thoroughly research and consider all the factors before making a decision.

Which is better, DAV University, Jalandhar or Chandigarh University (CU)?

NP
Nasim Prasaf Posted On : July 16th, 2021
Studied at Lovely Professional University (2019)

Both Avantika University or G.D.Goenka Universityare not mainstream design colleges. It is suggested not to opt for any of the colleges as they are primarily engineering-based and design is the third priority.

The present status of the design department is on the verge of collapsing in both of the institutions. They almost got shut down last year. The number of students was very less and the existing students shifted elsewhere.

Rather than going to Avantika University or G.D.Goenka, you can go to other colleges such as the World University of Design and MIT Pune. These are the institutes you should be joining if you are looking forward to pursuing Designing. Both are mainstream design universities and way better than what you are thinking of.

How is it possible that Chandigarh University students are getting higher or equal packages to PEC or UIET despite having such a low cut-off when compared to PEC?

AS
Abhay Sukla Posted On : May 5th, 2021
PEC Chandigarh

The package acquisition is not a college deed in the case of Chandigarh University. There are many factors that you need to consider whenever you want to compare placements in colleges.

UIET/PEC:

  • Both these are government colleges. UIET, being a new one is still rising and working. It has strict admission rules and academic procedures that follow AICTE’s rules. 
  • It has an average of 100-120 students in every branch. The number of students is a bit lower in branches like Meta or BioT. So, you will see around 600 students in a batch of 20xx. 
  • There’s no way anyone can get admission without clearing the counseling. There are no management seats and hence no pay to study. We should also note that UIET has no Home Quota. 
  • This makes the admission more open to deserving candidates. Almost 80% of the present batch doesn’t belong to Chandigarh or places around.

CU or any other similar private college:

  • It might sound lucrative but the reality is that they don’t have any seat matrix. You can even check on a verified website, ask students and do your own research. 
  • You will find that CU gives admission to N number of students where N is the number of students who can afford it. 
  • The year 2018-19 saw 2000 Engineering students getting admission but the batch of 2020 had 2600 students in CSE with just 60 students in Electrical.

Placements:

  • UIET/ PEC: There are almost 70-90% placements in different branches. These numbers are now going down very drastically not because of the companies which offer placements, but because many students don’t want placements. UIET has funded more than 8 startups out of the college in the past 4 years. PEC also has a significantly greater number of placements. 20+ elite companies and other 50+ local startups visit both these colleges, along with few mass recruiters.
  • CU: Tough they claim huge campus placements, which is true, they have never displayed or claimed the people placed or even their exact placement statistics. CU holds 3-4 pool placements where anyone, even the ones outside the campus, can come for placements and if they get placed, they are said to be placed from CU. Moreover, the genuine placements are divided among engineering and MBA students. UIET doesn’t have MBA. CU hasn’t shared the average placement records either. They would probably be very low, seeing their records, maybe around 2-3L, but definitely not more than that.

Now that you know all the facts, you must also know that a college hardly matters. What matters the most is what you wish to make of yourself. You can get a 20-40L package from CU/UIET/PEC if you want to work for it. You can even become an entrepreneur.
