    College Infrastructure

    The college infrastructure is improving, the Aravali hostels are in a bad state, and the admin building is not painted. The buildings which are new are very good. There is no CCTV in the old academic block. CCtvs are there in the new academic block.

    Academics

    I am studying mechanical engineering. The relative grading system is killing the college. But the curriculum is always updated in accordance with industry standards. The faculty is good. But there is a shortage of staff in labs. Labs are not good, many of the boilers don't work. A lot of improvement is needed in labs.

    Placements

    The college stands out in placement. I am personally assured that the college placement gives excellent job opportunities for the core as well as circuital branches. The placements are equivalent to mediocre IITs and the top NITs. The average package for the mechanical branch for the year 2023 is 12-13 lacs per annum.

    Value for Money

    It is a government college so the fee is reasonable Rs 86000 / semester. I will graduate in 2025. I feel it is value for money as placements are excellent.

    Campus Life

    Campus life is only good during fests and events. Rest of the time it feels more like school.

    Others

    If you want to have good placements, this is one of the best colleges. If you want to have campus life, I will not recommend this college. If you want to clear GATE, this college is good as teachers cover the syllabus.

    Pec Chandigarh is really a underrated college .

    Verified Review
    College Infrastructure

    Talking about the infrastructure it's little bit in the older side but have to keep in mind the college is 100 years old . The New Academic Section is amazingly built beside Nescafe . Being a student of Mechanical engineering, the respective block is very old but PG block is newly built with advance labs installed in it. Talking about the labs , they are descent but not upto the mark if compared to modern generation. Wifi network is okayish and smart boards are installed in every classroom.

    Academics

    The quality of teaching with respect to mechanical I would say it's very good . Mechanical is also the one of the first two branches of the college. But the curriculum is little bit outdated focusing more on theoretical knowledge rather than practical work.Some of the teachers are not adopting the modern style of teaching making the subject boring at times.

    Placements

    Placement has been one of the shining features of the college. Companies like apple, microsoft,Paytm,uber visit the college. Talking specifically about core , the placement is descent with students placed in companies like Mahindra, maruti suzuki,Mercedes.Avg package with respect to mechanical is around 10lpa but the package is increasing everyyear.Highest salary offered till date is 85 lakhs .

    Value for Money

    The fee structure is ridiculous out here both academics and hostel. Specially the hostel fee , with the amount we are paying the facilities are not at that level . Food is also average.I would recommend PG if anyone can afford.

    Campus Life

    One of the negative point I would like to share is the 50 percent state quota which creates a barrier between homestate and outside state students. Plus most of the students are from Northern part of India decreasing the diversity.Apart from that the campus life is descent ,the most amazing thing is that College is located in Chandigarh hence students can enjoy the life of chandigarh pretty well.Students are always engaging themselves in different activities.

    Others

    If someone joins the college solely on the basis of placement then it won't be a regretful decision but yes if one joins expecting diverse culture then it won't be a wise decision. The alumini network is very great out here because of which students are also placed out of their recommendations.

    Aerospace Engineering. Quality of teaching is good with high attention from faculty. Curriculum recently updated to keep the students in par with the advancements in tech. Aerospace is a research related study and with the updated syllabus and amazing labs, it prepares students for the industry.

    Placements

    Haven't been placed yet so can't say. But companies like JP Morgan, Apple, and Microsoft have been at campus for placements and every year the count increases. The college prepares the students with a programme called pre-placement training.

    Value for Money

    Approximately 1.5 lacs per year. The fees is worth the money.

    Campus Life

    Campus Life is amazing. Fests and events make it even more fun and hostels and pec markets are the go to spots for everyone.

    College Infrastructure

    Most facilities are there for computer science branch. We have library where we can find all the books related to the subjects. The infrastructure is a little old and some more facilities could be there. The hostels and mess are not used by me so can't give a review on that.

    Academics

    The benefit of coming to a college like PEC or any college is the opportunities that it gives you and nothing else. The teachers are not particularly good at teaching but they do have excellent knowledge of their field. In the end we all have to learn everything ourselves.

    Placements

    I have not been placed yet but I have heard very nice reviews from my seniors about the placements in this college. This college has 100 percent placement and the offers are also good. Our placement team works very hard to get good offers for us.

    Facilities and opportunities are sufficiently good

    College Infrastructure

    The institute building is about 100 years old. It has many facilities like gymnasium hall, swimming pool, etc..Classroom’s seating capacity is sufficient enough to adjust all the students comfortably. Hostels are provided with WiFi.

    Academics

    Quality of the teaching is good. Teachers are really experienced and are helpful as they provide notes required for the preparation of the exams by which student only studies what is requires instead of wasting time learning other things not relevant for the exam.

    Placements

    Placements are good specially for the circuital students as compared to the non circuital students. Reputed companies like Soben, Goldsmith hire from campus. Placement opportunities for civil students are limited

    Value for Money

    The annual fees is approximately 160K for BCom

    Campus Life

    The campus life is really fun reason being a lot of events are held at the campus like the PECFEST. There are many sports facilities like cricket, basketball, badminton court, lawn tennis, etc..

    The college has all the facilities a student imagines during the preparation time of JEE , seniors show a great support and arr always ready to help and the best part is the clubs and societies where you get all the fun and knowledge which helps in the overall development, overall a pretty good college

    Academics

    I am in the computer science branch and PEC is a reputed college when it comes to this branch, overall thr teaching is pretty decent same as you can expect from any college ? but yeah the atmosphere around helps in remaining motivated towards the goal

    Placements

    Most the students of the IT stream gets placed in companies and get decent packages, placements generally depends on the person itself like even a civil engineering student can bag an offer from top notch company all it requires the hardwork

    Value for Money

    The annual fee is around 1.5lakh and PEC being a GFTI I feel like the fee is bit high but I think it is worth the money afterall. The campus buildings and infra is little old but still looks good and the college itself is located in the city beautiful ?what else one wants.
