Placement depends on your knowledge and skill in that particular field. There are many reputed companies visiting the PEC Chandigarh campus for placements. And securing a placement offer in any of them depends on your academics and your performance in the interview. 

Besides, you must remain among the top 20% of students, be consistent and develop your verbal skills to ensure that you get selected. 

The table below shows the overall placement scenario of PEC Chandigarh.

Among the given branches the hot pick is probably Civil Engineering. As the infrastructural growth is almost at an all-time high currently in India. There are many opportunities to start a career or become an employer in the field. 

Below are the procedures to get admission in undergraduate courses at PEC Chandigarh. 

1. You will have to score at least 75% in your board exam, it is the basic criteria to appear in JEE Main.
2. Appear and secure a good score in JEE Main. You will get three consecutive attempts for JEE Main. Admission at PEC is purely based on JEE Main score. You can check the recent cutoff for PEC on the official website to get an idea of what to expect.
3. All the qualified candidates have to participate in the counseling process and they are allotted seats as per the rank secured in JEE Main and choices elected by them.
4. If you are applying for admission one year after your 10+2, you will need to produce a gap year certificate during counseling.

So, these are some eligibility criteria for you to keep a note of.

Students who get admission at PEC through spot round usually get branches like Production or Civil Engineering. It is true that classes at PEC Chandigarh begin before the spot-round selection. You will also miss the orientation program and which according to the students of the institutes are quite boring sometimes. So you may miss some of the lectures, but it is of the least concern because you will be easily able to cover up the portion that you missed out on. Your fellow classmates can help you out with the same, besides mostly introductions are done over that 1st week. 

After the manual counseling i.e. the spot round is over visit PEC for registration, after that you can start attending the classes.

Almost every branch of PEC Chandigarh has good faculty and well-equipped laboratory facilities. The instruments in the labs are also upgraded from time to time. 

In recent years the bachelor’s degree offered by PEC Chandigarh has changed from BE to B.Tech which is a minor change but still significant. As for the best branch, it will probably be Civil Engineering. I heard good things about this branch from my friends at the institute. 

It is also evident from the placement statistics for Civil Engineering at PEC in recent years.

PEC Chandigarh is indeed declining these days and you can consider the following reasons for this thought.

• It is deemed to be University and you should not worry about the syllabus and what is taught in the classes as most of the questions are coming from what is never taught.
• Teachers are very relaxed here, as the institute had separated from PU. Thereby, institutional politics in recent days are increased. 
• No one from the college administration is worried about the syllabus and what will be taught in the classes. Thus, your technical curiosity starts to fade as you proceed forward to the next semesters.
• Most students and the teachers also acquired a 100% placement record for granted.
• It is a technical institute and if you do not have any technical questions and curiosity, it becomes quite hard to endure the study in the core engineering field.

My friend told me that many big corporate companies had overlooked this institute for this decline.

Thus, when an institute is nearby to the NITs, which are growing constantly, it is also important for PEC to improve its student’s quality and the college administration.
