NIT Jalandhar placements are good for M.Tech. According to the recent placement highlights, the average CTC offered for M.Tech branches is around INR 6 LPA. The highest CTC offered goes up to INR 10 LPA. Comparably CSE has a better placement record. Adobe, Oracle, OYO, Intel, L&T, etc. are among the major recruiters that take part in the placement drive.
PEC's previous director wasn’t a very good educationist. The infrastructure, curriculum and the extracurriculars suffered under his leadership.
But things have changed in PEC now. The new director has the opposite ideals. There has been a gradual increase in the quality of education at PEC. Some changes are:
Infrastructure is being improved
The curriculum has been made more challenging
PEC Fest stole the show for the year
So the long standing reputation combined with the strong alumni network will not disappoint you. PEC is not losing its good ranking and NIT Jalandhar is nowhere near it.
NIT Jalandhar has three girls' hostels.
GH1 - First year students are given accommodation in GH1. It has double sharing and four-sharing rooms. GH1 has a mess inside the hostel and it provides breakfast, lunch, snacks, and dinner. GH1 has LAN facilities. It has a tv room and a reading room.
GH2 - Second-year students are accommodated in GH2. It has two seater and four seater rooms. The mess facilities are similar to that of GH1. Most BTech students are allotted four-seater rooms. The hostel y=timing is 10 pm. GH2 has both LAN and WiFi facilities.
MGH - Final year, third year and PhD students get accommodations in MGH. It only has double-sharing rooms. PhD students stay in one-seater rooms. MGH has WiFi facilities. The mess is combined with GH2.
Overall, the hostel accommodation at NIT Jalandhar is good.

Based on the given factors, students can make an informed choice between the given institutions for ECE or CSE depending on their preferences and requirements.
There are two options available to you. Choose between IIIT Jabalpur and NIT Raipur for CSE.
Why choose NIT Raipur?
NIT Raipur, why not?
Why choose IIIT Jabalpur?
Why not IIIT Jamshedpur?
The choice of the branch is more important than choosing the institute because it determines and shapes your career. If you are interested in working in a PSU or have an interest in Electronics, choose ECE but if you have no such inclinations choose CS, the most diverse field. There are two main differences between IIITs and NITs
Based on the placement scenario and the academics, here is the preference order I would suggest you follow while making your choice
NIT Jalandhar CSE>IIIT Jabalpur CSE>NIT Raipur CSE>NIT Kurukshetra ECE>NIT Hamirpur ECE> NIT Jamshedpur ECE
It's important to note that this preference order is not based on any official data and is based on my own opinion only.

These are a few of the things that you opt to know about NIT Jalandhar. Hope this was helpful.
NIT Jalandhar is a reputable university. Not particularly extraordinary or so. It's just a quiet campus with standard instruction where CSE graduates have a good placement rate. It gradually lost its allure. It used to be one of the best NITs, but lately, it has declined.
However, it is still a very good college, with CSE, in particular, being a particularly lovely and developed branch.
Keeping in mind the academic environment and placement statistics, the following should be the preferences:
CSE at NIT Hamirpur, IIIT Jabalpur, NIT Jalandhar, and IIIT Kancheepuram.
ECE at NIT Hamirpur, ECE at NIT Jalandhar, IIIT Kancheepuram, and then IIIT Jabalpur.
Choose a college with a broadband internet connection in the hostels for CSE. In general, the faculty at all of these colleges will be mediocre, and you will be forced to rely on the internet for your education. Once the CSE and hostel broadband requirements have been met, consider which college is closer to home, near a city, and not in a country where you do not speak the native language.
