College is average; everything is good and will be provided to you.

Placements: The students who were placed are more than 70%, as it also depends on the students themselves. The average package of PCU is 6 LPA and the high package is 32 LPA, but one of the highest packages is 62 LPA at PCET, as it is part of PCU. Top recruiters are Uber, Capgemini, TCS, Infosys, etc.

Infrastructure: Infrastructure is good, Wi-Fi and labs are also good, hostel facilities are very good for girls, as far as I know. Food and room service are good and there is a very good environment here. There are mess, canteen, and sports and games also. Overall, it is good for students to study.

Faculty: Teaching style is good, exams and practicals are also better as we have to prepare for them seriously. The courses offered are also relevant to the industry, and they give students access to many paid courses for free, as well as the premium platform like LinkedIn, etc.

Other: Fests and all other events are good as well.

College is very best, and beneficial for us.

Placements: Our college offers the best placement. The average salary package offered is 61 LPA, and a student was placed in Flipkart. The college campus is very big. Top companies like TCS, Capgemini, Flipkart, and Wipro visit for placements. Our college guarantees placements and internships.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure is great and there is a lot of space on campus. Hostels and canteen are very big. There is a playground and big lawns. Classrooms and labs are very big. Digital library and library is also available. Library is equipped with many books. College is located at mountain side. There are no distractions while studying.

Faculty: Faculty members are very good and friendly with students. They have sufficient knowledge about their subject. They share their experiences about real-time industries, companies, interviews, and studies. Also, they clear our doubts and help us in every trouble. They help us with our projects and many other things. They are the best faculty.

Other: Our batch took admission in 2023. There are more than 1,500 students in first year now, and around 700 students in the second year. Management is very effective.

Uncertain about placements, not a good college life, and college is isolated from the main city.

Placements: The university was established in 2023, so there haven't been any placements conducted yet. Pimpri Chinchwad University is a branch of PCET/PCCOE, and the average placement package is 8 LPA, the highest placement package is 60 LPA, and the lowest placement package is 3 LPA.

Infrastructure: Students have access to Wi-Fi, and laboratories for different subjects such as computer science, physics, chemistry, electrical engineering, fabrication, etc. are there. Students also have access to the library. There are different hostels: Tulip, Collina, Buona Vital (Off-Campus Boys Hostel) PCU Girls Hostel (In-Campus Girls Hostel) I am from Buona Vital, and the hostel quality is very poor. Food-wise, it is decent. It doesn't have fully functioning gym (equipments are broken, not cleaned, etc.). Nothing is maintained. Frequent power cuts are there. The management team is barely listening to us.

Faculty: Teachers are helpful and knowledgeable; they are all friendly and supportive, and they answer everything you ask. The course curriculum is relevant, but the first year seems irrelevant; it has some topics that are not really needed for computer science. But it does make the students industry-ready since it has some topics that are needed in the current corporate market.

Other: I chose this course because it has been my interest since I was a kid. The best thing about my course is that it is very rewarding and fun. Adding more practical implementation in the course would improve it. There's festivals, events, and activities happening in the university, which are hosted by the management.

PCU - Coming Up Big

Placements: The placement is centralized for all PCET group colleges. The highest package till now is 61 lacs by Uber. Almost everyone gets an internship, whether paid or unpaid. The top recruiters are Uber, TCS, and many more. Overall, the placement is too good.

Infrastructure: We get 24 hours of free Wi-Fi. The labs are also equipped with modern equipment. The hostel facility is good, with amenities like washing machines, a swimming pool, a clubhouse with a gym, and table tennis. There’s also a basketball court and a badminton court. The food is not up to the mark.

Faculty: The teachers are excellent, holding very good degrees and PhDs, with a minimum of five years of experience. The course is very updated. The semester exams are moderate, and the pass percentage is above 75%. Scoring is not too tough. If you study, you will do well.

Other: Choosing a course at Pimpri Chinchwad University (PCU) blends personal interest and career goals. With an industry-focused curriculum, experienced faculty, and top-notch infrastructure, it’s a solid choice. Vibrant campus life, events like Technovanza, a diverse crowd, and ample scholarships enhance the experience. Improvements in research and support services are needed.

Review of PCET's Pimpri Chinchwad University.

Placements: PCU has a placements cell along with many well known companies visiting the campus. Though it’s the cell’s first working year, but the placements cell has varied experience of bringing companies for recruitments. Top companies like Wipro, Tech Mahindra, TCS, and other local companies vidit for hiring.

Infrastructure: The University is surrounded by greenery. The classrooms are very big with each classroom having projectors. The computer lab is very big with high tech and latest devices available. The institute has a Wi-Fi support across the campus but with some restriction.

Faculty: The faculty is well educated and most of them are Ph.D. holders and have published various research papers. The course is designed considering the future needs of the industry, like DBMS, Cloud Computing, Web Development, C&Adv. etc. The course also has a compulsory subject of open electives where the students have to opt for subjects of other departments along with the course including foreign language learning like German and Japanese.

Other: The annual fest, Anantam, is where the students perform different arts like singing, dance, etc. The fest is grand and this year, a marathi star, Swapnil Joshi, was invited.
