How is NIT Jalandhar CSE in all aspects: placement, package, accommodation, environment, etc.?

When it comes to engineering placements, PEC ranks far higher than NIT Jalandhar. However, the branch is extremely important. Nowadays, if you major in CSE, you will earn significantly more than if you majored in Mechanical/Civil, for example. However, when comparing the same branches between PEC and NIT, PEC stands out.

According to recent media reports, the highest package offered during Punjab Engineering College placement in 2022 was INR 64.5 LPA to 7 students. In addition, the average package offered in 2022 was INR 13.5 LPA. The participating recruiters placed 509 college students in various sectors such as software, consulting, analytics, and so on. Apple, Microsoft, Arcesium, American Express, and JP Morgan & Co. were among the top recruiters for PEC Chandigarh 2022.
