What are the chances of getting into coding after joining ICE in NIT Jalandhar? Do companies visiting NITJ allow ICE students to sit in on-campus placement?

The first thing you need to understand is that your chances of getting into coding do not depend on your branch.

NIT Jalandhar has an extensive coding environment and almost every student irrespective of their branch wants to learn to code. It also has some amazing clubs like DSC-NIT to help you recognize your interests in coding and other fields like Cloud Computing, Web Development, Android Development & Machine learning.

At NITJ, you will learn coding in your first year only as a part of your 1st-year course curriculum as CP (Computer Programming).

As far as the ICE branch is concerned, it’s the most coveted branch. So if you have joined it you are very lucky. The best part about this branch is its Data Structures & Algorithms course. It is a completely technical course that teaches the most important aspects of coding.

Placements

You don’t need to worry about the on-campus placements. Everyone with 

• a good CGPA (7.5+)

• good skills like coding,

will easily secure a good package. Placements are not restricted to just a few branches. Students from every branch can sit for placements. So don’t worry about that and just study hard.
