College Coaches you everything

Likes

The first hand experience in extra curricular and management of big events is huge, along with your academic you have a scope of going above and beyond in clubs and activities.
Major and minor project in 3rd and 4th year helps us also focus on the practical engineering team experience and help us cultivate unity and innovation.
Chandigarh, its a place in itself which speaks for itself in terms of the culture, resources and environment.

Dislikes

Traditional way of teaching would be one, as the curriculum of subject is quite old.
Culture of technology is abit less people are more inclined towards management consulting
Research work or scope is very limited though we have some laboratories but its not that great.

Placement Experience:

Campus placement for circuit branch is quite good Almost 80% gets placement and even internship also in 3rd year. People also opt for masters , cat , gmat etc as per their career aspirations , stuent opt for different things

Placements are good provided you do hard work.Good course like communication which improves your communication skill and remove stage fear. Internships and PPOs are good . Most reputed college in North India is Punjab engineering college, Chandigarh.

Dislikes

Infrastructure is very poor as this college is not funded by central government. 1st year teachers are boring. You just have to do everything by yourself. Bad crowd in non circuital branches
Drugs and beer vines are common. No AC in non circuital branches. Lack of funding. Like others college they just follow old curriculum.
Hostels condition are not good. Hostel fees are also high. Wifi just disconnects always . Boys to girls ratio are poor like In cse its 1:10 and little good from this in other branches

Placement Experience:

For campus placement students can involve in 7th semester also many students got their PPOs in 6th semester as well. There are many reputed companies visited in PEC like Apple, Microsoft,Adobe,JP Morgan,Goldman Sachs,Amazon etc.Highest package this year was around 58LPA on-campus while average of all branch turns into around 14.33LPA.Overall more than 50 percent students got placed in all batch while around 80 percent placed in CSE due to recession. My plan is to get a decent package after the degree or during my 4th year.
