SLIET: Admission 2026, Fees, Courses, Cutoff, Ranking, Placement

Along with your diploma course, you should pursue your degree course in engineering. In this competitive world having only one diploma will not serve the purpose. For this, you need a degree.

As for the diploma, Sant Longowal Institue of Engineering and Technology is a good option. I have heard good things about their CSE diploma program from my friends who attend the institute. You can also go for other options if you have any.

But I will suggest that don’t rely solely on your diploma, for job offers. Doing a degree after the completion of your diploma will certainly make you more eligible for future job offers. After the completion of your degree program, you will notice that you will get an ample amount of opportunities as compared to your diploma program.

Overall Sant Longowal Institue of Engineering and Technology is good you will get ample amount of opportunity for growth and development.

The annual technical festival of Sant Longowal Institute of Engineering and Technology, Sangrur, Punjab (SLIET) is one of the oldest technical fests. Some of my close friends studied there, so I might be able to give you some basic information.

• It consists of many technical competitions and tournaments based on various engineering disciplines with attractive prizes.
• Different editions of Techfest were sponsored by different MNCs like Oppo, Makemytrip, Airtel, Coca-cola, zebronics, Toretto, etc.
• The Campus Ambassador is the primary contact person between the Techfest and the college.
• The selection process is based on the Internshala application. A telephonic interview will be conducted.
• After completion, you will receive a certificate and a letter of recommendation.

You can also visit the campus of SLIET (Techfest) and enquire about it on your own. Look for an application form that is specifically for the position of Campus Ambassador. Do not be surprised if there isn't any such program offered there. Just check their website or give them a call or just drop a mail to them asking about SLIET.

To be honest, it's negligible; yes, this is the word that no one wants to hear when deciding on a career path. But why should I brag if it's not true? So here's why:

First, unlike EE or mechanical, food technology is not a core branch. India is still a developing country, and we consume less processed food than people in Western countries. The vast majority of the population is vegetarian and animal products require most of the processing.

Even though we have access to processed foods in the market, we prefer to purchase local items at the local market than from a supermarket.

The same thing occurs with fruits and vegetables. Because there is no room for negotiation in the sealed product, and it is quite expensive, it has gone through a series of processing units

Food technology is not a bad field but its scope is much wider in foreign countries than in India. You can go for a PG course from some of the best colleges like CFTRIS, and develop other necessary skills. You will barely be able to get a decent job in S.L.I.E.T with only a graduate degree, but before you take food tech, think properly that you really want to do it or not.

My brother was a student of the Electrical Engineering 2019 batch, so I can tell you about it.

In terms of academics, it is really a good Institute with world-class faculty members in their fields. They will assist you greatly even if your problem is not academic in nature, despite the fact that some teachers' teaching methods are deplorable.

You don't have to be concerned about maintaining a decent CGPA. You'll be able to easily crack competitive exams like GATE, IES, or even get a good placement (many Gold medalists are unable to clear the GATE cut-off). Focus on skills and knowledge rather than CGPA (but at least you should have 8).

One more important point to consider that if you are planning to enroll in any core branch, I strongly advise you to begin preparing for GATE, IES, UPSC, CAT, or any competitive exam in your first year or as soon as possible, rather than coding or programming. You will have plenty of time to study for all of these. It will really help you in the future.

My brother graduated in B.Tech (CS) from Sant Longowal Institute of Engineering and Technology. I have heard about the advantages and disadvantages of enrolling in SLIET.

Campus:-
 

• The campus is moderately large with 448 acres.
• Fully furnished labs, well-maintained furniture, and a huge library with a good collection of books and journals, and research papers. 
• It has 13 clean hostels with a very good connection of high-speed LAN. It has sports facilities, medical services, a temple, a Gurudwara, ATM, banks, a shopping complex, and student activity centers.
• One huge stadium to play multiple sports such as cricket, football, etc, a swimming pool, one beautiful lake, and two ponds, a hygienic canteen, and a restaurant with multiple eating joints.

Placements:-

If you spend your four years in this university, it wouldn’t be a waste of your money. Earlier, the placement of this college wasn’t good enough but last year a total of 41 companies visited the university and 195 students got placed in the best companies. Due to COVID, the placement is still in progress.

The top recruiters who came to the university in 2020 were Cognizant, Hindustan Unilever Limited, Nestle India, Capgemini, Softstar, Nature Bio Food, TCS, Ralson, Godrej, and many more. 

Thus, the University keeps academics on priority and fun at the same time.

The Sant Longowal Institute Of Engineering & Technology is an autonomous institution situated in Longowal, a small town in the district of Sangrur in Punjab. I have a known relative who is an alumnus of the institute. The following points are based on his experiences:

Pros

• The infrastructure of the institute is spread over 450 acres.
• The semester fee for a bachelor of engineering is 26,000 INR.
• The campus has a playground as well as a stadium.
• The ME and CSE department are renowned and the faculty is alumni of foreign universities and institutes like IITs.
• It has scientifically oriented clubs like Endeavour for Robotics and Aeromodelling which take part in SAEINDIA Aero design Challenge, Junkyard warriors. They participate in SAEINDIA Baja competition and Juggernauts participate in F7 racing. The teams have achieved commendable results.
• You will have a lot of time to prepare for GATE, IES, CDS, Civil Services, etc.
• Placement for mechanical and computer science is ever-improving in this institute.

There are cons as well. The institute is situated in a remote area and it would be difficult for you to get coaching classes for GATE and other competitive exams. 

The facilities provided by the institute leave a lot to be desired and so does the management which you will see in every technical institute funded by the government.
