Both institutes are considered to be reputed engineering colleges. Though studying at PEC Chandigarh I realized it will be a better option. Following are the facts which make it better than the other institutes -

Placements (Winning Institute- PEC Chandigarh)

PEC has a progressive atmosphere for core branches like mechanical. The faculties are cooperative and help in placement training and creative experimental works.
Most of the tech giants including Google, Amazon, Adobe, Alstom, Volvo, Fiat, L&T, Indian Oil, etc. visit PEC for campus recruitment.
Highest CTC up to 60 LPA is offered to CS, IT, and ECE students.

The following table shows a brief overview of the two institutes.

The city of Chandigarh has a lot to offer. There might be a few problems regarding food and accomodation in Vellore for non local students. Other than that, PEC provides necessary facilities including an excellent library, workshops, sports grounds and much more.

PEC has moderate fees, compared to VIT, as being an institute of national importance. PEC has a better student culture, with no management quota. Also, has a far better employee reputation throughout the years.

Which is better, CSE at Thapar, CSE at IIITM Gwalior, or CSE at VIT?

Studied at IIITM Gwalior

If you are studying Computer Science Engineering at IIITM Gwalior, you can expect your batch mates who scored less than 10K in JEE Main to have a better quality than those at VIT and Thapar. By studying at IIITM, you can enjoy better recognition since it is an institute of national importance. IIITM Gwalior has been established since 1997, which means that professionals in the industry are more likely to recognize it compared to newer IIITs or state government colleges. During the 2022 placement season, the average package offered to students at IIITM was INR 24.85 LPA. This indicates that the institute has a strong reputation in the industry and is highly sought after by recruiters. As a result, your chances of securing a good job with a high salary are increased.
