My college is a very good college.
Placements: My percentile of JEE Main exam is 87. My college's highest package is 1.2 Cr. And my branch's highest package is 40 LPA, and the average package is 15 to 20 LPA, and the lowest package is 12 LPA. All companies are coming to my college. And higher the good placement.
Infrastructure: My college's infrastructure is very high, and the hostel fee is 80 thousand for the 1st year. And the college fee is 1 Lakh 13 thousand rupees for the 1st year. But lab, Wi-Fi, classrooms, and facilities in your hostel, the quality of food available in the mess and canteen, medical facilities, sports, and games are very beautiful.
Faculty: My college's teachers are very helpful, qualified, and have higher knowledge. The teaching quality is the best of any other college. This is my experience. The curriculum follows the new pattern, and this is the most important. Yes, most of the time, the semester exam is difficult.

The college is great if you lie in this rank range.
Placements: The placements in circuit branches are on par with many of the IITs and NITs; however, the non-circuit branches are another story altogether, with the exception of aeronautical engineering; the rest all are good but not great (but still much better than the rest of the competition at this rank range).
Infrastructure: Hostels are pretty shitty, rest all facilities are great and work smoothly, the library however is not 24x7, but it does stay open till late during exams of any sort. We have a wide variety of books, a market inside the college for easy access consisting of restaurants, banks, a post office, and stationary shops.
Faculty: The profs are mostly PhDs from acclaimed universities, mostly IITs and NITs. The course curriculum is very relevant. We even have robotics as a subject in our 1st year (mechatronics). The midsems are not that difficult, but endsems are surely difficult.

Old infrastructure, decent study, and good placements.
Placements: For civil engineering, nearly 50% of students are placed through the college. The highest package is somewhere between 24 LPA, and the minimum package is 3-6 LPA. The top company is L & T, and there are many others too, which are good ones. The maximum internship package is 50k, and it's decent too.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure is old and has not been renovated. For the first year, there is a new building; otherwise, it's an old building. Wi-Fi is good and available everywhere in the college. The library is decent, too. Food is not good in the mess, like at every other college. The game facilities are also good.
Faculty: For studies, it's also a good college. Teachers are helpful, and the course is very relevant. The study is neither too tough nor too easy. It's decent and can be easily passed even if listened to in class. Teaching quality is good, and labs are available for practical experience. Industrial tours are also part of the curriculum.

College is quite good, but as the course is new, we don’t know much about the placement.
Placements: As this course is new, we can’t say much about placements, but the placement of other branches is pretty good. A lot of companies visit our college, like Microsoft, Amazon, etc.
Infrastructure: We have Wi-Fi in our college, but sometimes it doesn’t work. Our college is 100 years old, so the infrastructure is old, and there is not much improvement in that. However, the clubs in our college are too good; we get to know a lot from them, and they help master several skills.
Faculty: The faculty is helpful and well-qualified in their particular field. The curriculum is similar to DTU, which is good, but it lacks in some places, like electives being introduced in the 3rd year. However, they are working on improving it. Exams are not that tough, but assignments are.
Other: PEC Fest is one of the best parts of our college.

I am satisfied with our seniors.
Placements: Placements are decent. Some top geeks got a salary package of 1.5 CPA off-campus. Top companies like Atlassian, Microsoft, Google, etc., visited our campus and offered a salary package of 80 LPA. It is a domestic offer. Our college provides decent placements. We have a very large and strong alumni network.
Infrastructure: Hostels are not about infrastructure. It's all about with whom you are spending the time. There are only 2-3 triple sharing rooms. All the hostel rooms are double-sharing, so it's not an issue. The hostel allotment is like a lucky draw if you get a C block in the 1st year. The hostel has a D block.
Faculty: Some faculty members are top-notch in our course. They are London, Lunds University Sweden. She got an award from the president. For core, they have top-class qualified professors who have completed their research in ISRO, Bhabha Atomic Research Center and IPER.
Other: I chose this course because the teacher, Uma Batra, is the one who keeps metallurgy and materials strong in PEC.

Pec Chandigarh: Deemed to be University.
Placements: 70% of students were placed last year. This year, placements are low due to the recession. Top recruiting companies include JP Morgan and American Express. Top roles offered are SDE, data analyst, CADP, and finance roles. Almost 50% of students received internship offers, and some even got PPOs.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure is average, with Wi-Fi facilities all over the campus. Classrooms are air-conditioned with smart boards. Hostels are average, as expected from government colleges, but the mess food is decent, with a variety of dishes available.
Faculty: Most faculty members are serious about their core subjects, though first-year subject teachers are a bit relaxed. Most faculty have PhDs from IITs and foreign universities. The course curriculum is relevant to modern needs and flexible, with the college making timely updates. Semester exams are not too tough, and most students pass them.
