I have friends studying production engineering at PEC Chandigarh and they have come across that it is somewhat similar to mechanical engineering. You can expect a lot of mechanics and physics, however, some subjects differ as you get into the core.
Coming to the question, it totally depends on your pool of interest whether you are into mechanics and production or metallurgy. Here are two major factors you might consider before choosing any of them
At the end of the day, follow your passion and know where you can invest these 4 years of your life. Nevertheless, if getting a job is your goal then go for production engineering. On the other hand, metallurgy engineering can open doors for good research work if you are interested in doing so.
Surely, Metallurgy at PEC over Mechanical in UIET. There are various important reasons behind this: Placements in PEC are better, companies like Google, Amazon, Microsoft, etc. visit campus for placements.
Though metallurgy has fewer placements than other branches in PEC, once you are in PEC and if you are focused enough, you can go for an upgrade after 1st semester on the basis of CGPA. To aim for it, keep the following things in mind -

PEC is far superior to UIET in terms of cultural and other extracurricular activities. If you don't have any branch priorities, I'd recommend metallurgy in PEC.
My brother had the option of VIT for CSE on merit still he chose PEC metallurgy. There are various reasons as to why he took that decision:

Recruiting Companies |

ZS Associates, Amazon, JP Morgan, JSW Steels, etc. |
I personally believe VIT is overrated because a friend who did not even pass mains received 2000 AIR in VITEEE. In the CBSE 2016 boards, he scored 78 percent, which was below average.
It depends upon your expectations, your goals, your abilities, etc. The worth of doing Material Sciences and Metallurgy Engineering at PEC Chandigarh will depend on the following factor:

Course Fee |

PEC Chandigarh is not a bad college and has a legacy of close to 100 years now. It is also ranked 68 in the NIRF 2020 engineering college rankings. Take a decision based on what you want rather than superficial stats and other things.
Always pursue what you are interested in because if you love to do something in a field particularly, you will definitely achieve heights. Since I have a few friends at PEC, I can give you some idea about the Metallurgy course offered there.
PEC-Metallurgy:
Here’s a brief comparison of the institutes.
Parameters |
PEC Chandigarh |
Pantnagar University |
Average CTC |
10.2 LPA |
7 LPA |
Highest CTC |
42 LPA |
11 LPA |
Course Fee |
3.45 lakhs |
2.31 lakhs |
Now, if you want to do research or want good placements, don’t even think about Pantnagar.
If you are interested in CSE and have the confidence that you will be able to get IITs/NITs/BITS, you can take a drop year. But this option has its risks. PEC Chandigarh offers branch sliding options. Although the cutoff requirement is high for CSE, it's certainly doable with hard work. This way you won’t have to worry about a drop year.
