Recruitments are just fine but they don't let you sit in another campus, if you get placed once, therefore no backup plans, But some of the companies are great.

A value-for-money college for interested students in Ludhiana.
Placements: Around 60–80% of students are placed in my course. The highest package is about 9 LPA, the lowest package is around 2–2.5 LPA, and the average package is around 4–6 LPA. The top roles offered in my college are Software Developer, Web Developer, Full-Stack Developer, etc.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure is decent, neither very good nor very bad. We have student Wi-Fi, a central library, and labs. I am not a hosteller, so I do not know much about the hostel or mess. However, we have a very big sports complex, including a basketball court, swimming pool, and gym. The classrooms are average. Some have broken benches, but overall, the infrastructure is pretty decent.
Faculty: Faculty members here are polite. They are helpful, quite knowledgeable, and qualified. Most of them are Ph.D. holders. Their teaching quality is decent. The course curriculum is based on PTU and is very relevant to students. They provide hands-on practical training after each year, which is useful. The semester exams are quite challenging after the first year. The passing criteria are 24 out of 60 in ESE and 16 out of 40 in practicals.

It is an old and trusted college with a friendly environment and knowledgeable faculty.
Placements: 34 percent of students got placed in my course in multinational companies. In the last year, the highest package offered was 7 LPA, and the lowest package offered was 2.5 LPA. The average package offered ranges from 4-5 LPA. Some students go into entrepreneurship like they are doing an MBA. The top recruiting companies for our course are Microsoft and Amazon. 50-60 percent of students got internships from our course. Roles like design engineer, production engineer, and product engineer are offered here.
Infrastructure: Classrooms are good, but fans are too old in the mechanical department. Wi-Fi speed is excellent and better in the library. Labs are old but nice for very interesting experiments. The canteen food is average. The hostel is good. Medical facilities are excellent, but only 3 days a week.
Faculty: Teaching quality is mind-blowing. Teachers are strict, but very helpful and kind. The course curriculum is relevant, and it makes students industry-ready, so students do not face any problem in the industry by studying in a disciplined way. College exams are difficult but possible to pass. The pass percentage is 40 percent in external and 60 percent in internal exams.
Other: I chose this course because of my interest in robotics, chipsets, and AI. It should make the syllabus by seeing trends in industries and innovations in the new year. It conducts many activities. Scholarships are also very good. Extracurricular activities are very interesting.

Guru Nanak Dev Engineering College is the best college.
Placements: According to me, there were almost 2500 students in the passing batch. I am currently pursuing a degree in IT. The highest package offered to the passed-out student was Rs. 5,20,000. Demand to expert in my field is very high in cities like Chandigarh, Chennai, Bangalore, and Pune.
Infrastructure: There are a lot of facilities that our college has offered to us. They have provided us with Wi-Fi passwords and IDs, using which I can get knowledge related to my field online. In the hostel, there is a facility for hot water for bathing and drinking. The structure of the mess is also good.
Faculty: In my current semester, I am studying subjects like data structure, computer architecture, operating systems, database management system and object-oriented programming. Faculty, HOD Dr. Ks Maan, DR. Jaswinder Singh, DR. Randeep Kaur. In my semester, I have to give exams three times.
Other: Our college provides various types of scholarships based on the categories of a person.

Our college is best, but some minor adjustments need to be done to make it more efficient.
Placements: 70 percent of students are placed in our computer course. The lowest package is 3 LPA, and the highest package is 23 LPA. Companies recruiting in our course include Infosys, Deloitte, Capgemini, Wipro, and Amazon. Around 83 percent of students are confirmed with internships in our college at Genboot Private Limited, Nebero Private Limited, and Infosys. Top roles include HR, executive, software handling, and tester.
Infrastructure: All the facilities provided by our college are fine. They have provided us with various buildings, classrooms, benches, computers, labs, canteen, sports complex, dispensary, Wi-Fi, hostels, mess, tuck shop, and all games. In hostels, they have good facilities like proper mess food, good hostel rooms with furniture, fans, beds, almirahs, and all necessary medical and sports/game facilities.
Faculty: Teachers are helpful, well-qualified, and have much more knowledge about the course. They teach us with their best effort. The course curriculum is relevant and makes us industry-ready. Semester exams are quite tough, but we pass them with our knowledge.
Other: I chose this course as I already did a diploma in the same field and wanted to pursue this as my full-time career to become an aspiring software engineer. They should add digital assignments rather than handwritten ones. They organize various events on campus, some technical and some non-technical, like Tech Fest, Digital Fair, Utsav, blood donation camps, etc.

Guru Nanak Dev Engineering College review.
Placements: Most of the students are placed in my course. The highest package is 5 LPA and the lowest package is 1 LPA. Most students go for off-campus placements instead of on-campus because the college offers much lower packages. Regarding internships, students do paid internships because the college provides only theoretical knowledge.
Infrastructure: Wi-Fi quality is not good. The infrastructure is very old. The library of our department is good, but it is often closed. The hostel building is also very old. Nowadays, there are more students, and the hostel space is small. Instead of building a new hostel, they are shifting 4 students into a single room.
Faculty: Teachers in our college are alumni. Students need to get 40 percent marks to pass. The difficulty level of exams is easy to medium. In the first year, all exams are based on assignments and questions given in class, but in the second year, papers do not come from assignments.
Other: Someone recommended me to go into this field. Practical sessions should be increased instead of focusing only on theory.
