How is PEC Chandigarh at present? Should I go for it over NIT Jalandhar?

MV

Studied at Dr. B.R. Ambedkar Institute of Technology, Jalandhar (NITJ) (Graduated 2022)

Situation at PEC Chandigarh is pretty good currently. The new director has brought about a prominent change in the earlier stagnant situation at PEC. He has broadened the approach with an exhaustive curriculum and better infrastructure.

The next best change he has brought about is amazing placement opportunities. If you are from a branch like CS Or Mechanical, you will definitely land a core job. Highest package this year was INR 42 LPA.

Lots of sports facilities are improving. Other facilities include new centres like Siemens Centre of excellence(only 3 more in India) and solar tech park

Voyagers scheme where students get funded by college to explore rural India is surely another game changing feature of the college.

Extracurricular activities are also valued here and there are a lot of clubs to pursue your hobby.

The quality of faculty is also increasing gradually.

All these changes prove that you should definitely go for PEC over NIT Jalandhar.

Which is better NIT Jamsedhpur, NIT Raipur, NIT K,NIT Hamirpur, NIT Durgapur, NIT Jalandhar, DTU, NSIT or IIEST Shibpur?

There is nothing called a better college. One college can be good for you but bad for others. Similarly a college can be bad for someone else but perfect for you. Every college has its own flaws. So it depends on how much you are willing to overlook and get the best results.

Still if I have to make a choice among the above colleges, I will go for NIT Hamirpur. The peaceful ambiance and beautiful infrastructure is worth it.

Which is better for CSE, NIT Jalandhar or NIT Delhi?

YM
Yash Mehra Posted On : April 15th, 2021
Studied at National Institute of Technology, Delhi

Definitely, you should go for NIT Jalandhar. There are various reasons and differences due to which NIT Jalandhar is the better option for CSE. 

  • The first and foremost reason is the establishment. NIT Jalandhar is a well-established institute whereas NITD is still juggling to fit in the stream. 
  • With the better ranking and almost all the courses available NIT Jalandhar has a huge campus which will give you a better campus life. Whereas, NITD is a small campus with a few numbers of available courses. 
  • When it comes to CSE, there has been a decent placement from the past few years. Few top companies that one could count on recruitment are Amazon, Sapient, IBM, Infosys, etc. 
  • Although NITD, being in the central position gives you good internship choices to CSE students in the Delhi NCR region. So, if you want to opt for a particular CSE branch then you can take a chance but for any other stream, NITD is a big no. 
  • NITJ has a good CSE alumni base who are working in top companies. Therefore, placement is never a big problem here. 

The table below shows a brief insight on both NITs:

How is the civil branch at NIT Jalandhar?

MT
Manvendra Thakur Posted On : December 3rd, 2022
B.E. in Mechanical Engineering, Punjab Engineering College, Chandigarh (Graduated 2020)

To know how the Civil branch at NIT Jalandhar is, we need to consider 3 factors: 

  1. Academic: The theoretical subjects are well taught by top notch faculty. The labs are however not in very good condition here.

  2. Internships: There are not great internship opportunities here. Students themselves are not interested in spending their summers at the site.

  3. Placements: L&T is the major recruiter in private companies for civil engineers .For public jobs you need to appear for GATE for PSUs. If you have completed any internship, then placements will be very easy for you.

All in all NIT Jalandhar is a great choice to pursue Civil Engineering.

Is upgradation possible at NIT Jalandhar?

DN

Working hard pays off. You will undoubtedly get upgraded if refrain from relaxing or participating in pointless activities. Develop some appealing skills as well, as this is more common in campus selection.

Your grade point average should be higher than 8.5. However, it is difficult. To advance in your branch, you must work hard during your first year. If you're thinking about attending CSE, your chances are slim. Because very few students are capable of doing so. However, you can choose ECE because it is also very good for placement at NIT Jalandhar.

What is average package for an EE at NIT Jalandhar, and what is the highest?

SG
Sukrit Gupta Posted On : December 3rd, 2022
Studied at B.Tech. in Computer Science and Engineering, Dr. B.R. Ambedkar Institute of Technology, Jalandhar (NITJ) (Graduated 2022)

The placement percentage of Electrical Engineers at NIT Jalandhar this year (2022) was 69.23%.

The average Package of EE (2018-2022) Batch (till date) is 11.95 LPA. This package was for the FTE offer for GET(Graduate Engineer Trainee) Role.

The highest Package secured by one of my classmates was INR 9.2 LPA in FuturesFirst (Trading). Some were selected by Deloitte USI offering 6.2 LPA (Consulting) followed by Saint Gobain offering 6 (Shift Engineer+marketing) and many more.

Basically, almost everyone from EE was able to get placed at good firms with good packages. In Fact, some big companies like Samsung, HSBC, Texas Instruments, and Oracle visited for students with software profiles but one of us had actually developed proficiency in it.

If you are really interested in the subject go for it. Don’t worry about placements. For the best placements join the circuital branch ( CSE, ECE, IT, EE, ICE)

Which is better: CSE IN NIT JALANDHAR OR CSE IN THAPAR UNIVERSITY?

AT
Arun Singh Tanwar Posted On : December 5th, 2022
Studied Computer Science Engineering at Dr. B. R. Ambedkar National Institute of Technology, Jalandhar ( NITJ ) (Graduated 2020)

Unlike the general opinion that NIT Jalandhar is better than Thapar University just because of its NIT title, I have a different opinion. I think Thapar University should get the recognition it deserves. Some points in favor of my opinion are:

  • The CSE was renewed by Trinity College, Dublin. The curriculum is way more advanced than that of NIT Jalandhar. The latter has an outdated syllabus which is not relevant to the industry.

  • Many technical societies help inculcate special skills.

  • Placements for CSE are excellent at Thapar University.

  • Coding culture is witnessing a spike over the few years. 1st year students are getting selected for GSOC

  • The research culture at Thapar University is better than that of NIT Jalandhar where no one is interested in writing research papers at all.

  • The infrastructure is also better at NIT Jalandhar.

  • The location of Thapar University makes it easily accessible to restaurants, cinemas and other facilities.

  • There are various coaching institutes in and around Thapar University for GRE/CAT/IAS/GMAT.

All these points clearly prove that Thapar University is better than NIT Jalandhar.

GP
Gaurav Prakash Posted On : December 5th, 2022
Studied at National Institute of Technology, Tiruchirappalli

Ranking-wise BIT Mesra is better than NIT Jalandhar. It has some other additional features also:

  • BIT Mesra has Alumni in all the Top Universities around the globe

  • BIT Mesra also has International campuses in Ras al khaimah and Bahrain

  • It has the first rocketry department in India and has helped IITs to set up their rocketry department

  • It also has a Super-Computer called PARAM 10000.

  • BIT Mesra offers placements that are at par with the IITs

  • Top recruiters include Facebook, Google, and Microsoft

  • The grading system at BIT Mesra is absolute and the evaluation process is also very strict. So you will have to focus a lot on your CGPA.

This comparison is general. I think you should make a choice based on your own preferences. Consider factors like closeness to your home, Coaching/guidance for GRE, and alumni network.

The word better is a competitive form. Since you haven’t mentioned better than which college I have done a general comparison. Well yes, NIT Jalandhar is better than:

  • Other private colleges are just money-making machines 

  • New NITs 

  • Some new IITs as well

Established in 1987, this college has a strong alumni base so it’s better than many new colleges.
