PTU and GNDU both are well-reputed colleges that have unique strengths and weaknesses. While PTU is a bit flexible in terms of exam pattern, GNDU follows the rule of a year back. The choice of the college also depends on the course you will be studying. Usually, PTU fares better in most cases.

Ultimately, it all depends on the college or university campus you are taking admission. Most colleges in Punjab have a pathetic academic ambiance. So go for the main campus of any university else look for a decent college in your area.

In all, GNDU offers better placement opportunities provided that you are on the main campus.

Both PTU and GNDU are very reputed and popular colleges for engineering and both of these colleges have their own advantages.

If you want to choose a college based on placements, then go for GNDU as the placement opportunities available here are very good.
If you are getting a seat in the main campus of GNDU, then go for it without any doubts.
But there are some colleges too under PTU, which have decent placements.
The course you choose is as important as selecting a college.
There are some courses where PTU is better but there are some courses too where GNDU takes the lead.
If you want to choose branches such as mechanical, civil, electrical then you should probably go for PTU.
But if you want to opt for courses like CSE or Electronics choosing GNDU will be better.

Categories	Engineering at GNDU	Engineering at PTU
Course Fee	4.78 lakh	3.62 lakh
Placement Percentage	70-80%	80%
Highest CTC	12 LPA	13 LPA
Average CTC	5.5 - 6 LPA	4-5 LPA
Recruiting Companies	Wipro, Capgemini, Infosys, Oracle, etc.	IBM, HP, Accenture, Tech Mahindra, etc.

Hence, it now all depends on you on which courses you are more interested in and want to pursue it. So first choose a course and then decide your college based on the course, your interests and requirements.
