While PEC has a strong academic reputation some critics argue that PEC is not uptodate with thier syllabus

Students are able to sit for their placements from the third year. Internships are available from the second year. All companies almost come here for placements. The placement percentage here is sixty per cent.

4.6Helpful

Likes

The college Location is really wonderful. I really liked it.
The College FEST is really awesome, and completely conducted by the students on their own.

Dislikes

I don't like the infrastructure of the college and it really needed an upgrade.
The library timings are needed to be modified. It if just 8 pm in the evening. Though during examinations it get extended till 12 in night.

Placement Experience:

Placement were really nice in 2023. The median packages were near to 18lpa in CSE and ECE. This year they have fallen down significantly may be due to recession. This issue is faced across all college and even IIT's. The average package was near to 10lpa for all branches. Median packages for ECE and CSE was about 14lpa this year. Highest package for year 2023 was 83lpa and this year it was near to 53-58lpa. the student in case are unable to get on campus placement , then look for off campus. In 2023, placement percentage was good across all branches.

Likes

The student like is easy and fun with a lot of activities to do.
Placements are fairly high which is a good thing.

Dislikes

faculty can be annoying to deal with given the government nature of the college.
infrastructure is lacking in some places as there is no proper place to sit.

Placement Experience:

Students become eligible for placements after the 7th semester and the packages go up to 80 LPA in ECE and companies such as JP Morgan, and Goldman Sachs visit the college. In my course, around 90% of students get placed. The highest package is 84 LPA and the average is 15 LPA. My plans after the degree include getting an MBA degree.

I liked the placements here as compared to many government colleges
The number of clubs we get here is awesome and we can improve or develop ourselves in any field we want

Dislikes

Faculty was not up to the mark if we see the teaching ability, they all are highly educated but somehow they just try to complete the course only
Course is interesting but we should be taught relative to our syllabus from 1st year but in first year every branch has almost same syllabus which is a waste of time in my opinion

Placement Experience:

Placements in our college is good, they provide on-campus placements with a good average package In 6th semester the student has a chance to grab an internship which ranges upto 1 lakh also if we see this year's record And after that in 4th year they can get placed with decent packages The major companies visited were APPLE, GOOGLE, MICROSOFT, PHONE PE, J.P. MORGAN, GOLDMAN SACHS and many more No. Of PPOs, students got 149, and the highest stipend was 1.6 lakh offered by uber for an internship Above 40% of people preferred software followed by analytics(24%), core(17%), consulting(9%), and Finance(2%). Around 700 offers were there and the highest package grabbed by 5 students was of 83.5 lpa (4 CSE and 1 ECE) and the overall average was around 14 lakhs and above 70% of students were placed having 91% highest in CSE Major high packages were offered in software roles followed by other profiles After the degree, I wish to gain some experience from a job so I could start something new after that.

Green lush campus of PEC is the main thing I liked the most.
Most renowned alumni of pec are Kalpna Chawla,Badshah etc.

Dislikes

I am personally not satisfied with the hostel facilities of pec.This is the only thing which is to be improved.

Course Curriculum Overview:

In CSE and ECE branches college placements are quite good. The student-faculty ratio is about 1:15. Most of the faculty members are Ph.D. holders from renowned institutions in the country. They are always ready to solve problems faced by the students. College exams were of mediocre level i.e if you study well whole semester you will not face any problem and can pass exams with good cgpa. The curriculum of the syllabus is also not quite difficult.

Placement Experience:

The eligibility for college placements is after the 5th semester. The students can apply for their interest in companies for recruitment. There are several hundred companies that visit the college every session. They make a handsome number of offers to students. The highest offer is 75lakhs and a minimum of 4lakhs. The average is around 15lakhs. 80 percent of students get placed in the ECE department. The aim after the degree is software development in the field of my interest.

Everything Sorts Out

3.3Helpful

Placement Experience:

3rd year students are eligible for internships. 3rd year onwards, Companies begin to come for campus placements. Honestly speaking these days, No of companies coming for Non - circuital Branches like mechanical, civil, chemical are very less. Circuital students get placed decently according to how much they sweat.
