Metallurgy at PEC Chandigarh or Environmental at DTU or drop year? I came to know there is option of branch sliding in PEC . So should I go for it?

Yes, there is an option of branch sliding in PEC. You can change your branch after the second semester (i.e., first year). I know someone who upgraded from Metallurgy to IT. The upgrade is not a difficult task. Following are a few things that you should keep in mind. You can apply for branch change by filling up the Performa available in the Academic section on the mentioned date. You need to have an average commitment towards your preparation with no special preparation. Only consistent performance in mid-terms will be enough. There has been a change in the rule. Now, instead of two mid-term, there will be only one. So, it will be easy for you to score. You can definitely go for changing branches in PEC by choosing a branch-like CSE, ECE, or any other of your interest. As for the choice of the branch you should choose the one that interests you.

Which is better: CSE at PEC, Chandigarh or IT at IIIT, Allahabad?

Aditya SinhaB.Tech from Indian Institute of Engineering Science and Technology, Shibpur

IT at IIIT Allahabad is a better option, compared to CSE at PEC. In terms of academics, facilities, and placements, it has an edge over PEC. IIIT Allahabad placement 2022 concluded with an average CTC of INR 19.52 LPA. The highest CTC offered this year was INR 32.5 LPA. The placement rate was around 100%. The campus has a good student crowd, peer learning opportunities are ample.

But PEC has a locational advantage. Compared to Allahabad, Chandigarh offers better exposure and career opportunities.

The admission process in PEC, Deemed to be University is totally based on JOSAA(JEE). Electrical engineering here I got with AIR 23000 in general quota another state. So everything here is based on JoSAA. We have to apply to josaa and fill in our preferences accordingly, like the preference of branch and college. But make sure to check previous year cut-offs of this college for this branch (Electrical) on College dunia itself. Here are many quotas like SC/ST/Ews/defence/Kashmiri migrant/sports. The admission process is well and good here!
