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.

Good college with supportive faculty and fair exams.

Placements: I am studying B.Tech CSE at Guru Nanak Dev Engineering College, Ludhiana, and this is my honest review of placements. The college provides decent placement opportunities, especially for CSE students. Companies like TCS, Infosys, Wipro, Capgemini, and some startups visit every year. The training and placement cell conducts aptitude classes, mock interviews, and coding sessions, which help during the placement drive. Students who focus on skills like DSA, programming, and communication usually secure good offers. The average package is reasonable for freshers, and a few students get higher packages based on their performance. Overall, placements are good if students stay consistent and prepare well.

Infrastructure: I am studying B.Tech CSE at Guru Nanak Dev Engineering College, Ludhiana, and this is my honest review. The college provides a good learning environment with experienced and supportive faculty. Classrooms are clean, labs are well-equipped, and the library is peaceful with a good collection of books. Campus Wi-Fi works fine, and the atmosphere is safe. Hostel facilities are decent. Rooms are comfortable, and security is strict. Mess food is average but manageable, and cleanliness is maintained regularly. Overall, GNDEC offers a supportive academic environment and a satisfactory hostel experience for students who stay focused on their studies.

Faculty: The faculty at Guru Nanak Dev Engineering College, Ludhiana is knowledgeable and supportive, especially in core engineering subjects. Most teachers explain concepts clearly and are approachable for doubts. The curriculum is well-structured, covering important technical subjects along with practical labs, though some parts still feel theory-heavy and could include more industry-oriented topics. The exam pattern is fair, with internal assessment, assignments, and end-semester exams. If students attend classes and prepare regularly, scoring well is manageable. Overall, the faculty, curriculum, and exam system provide a solid foundation for engineering students at GNDEC.

Very good and in our college chances of placement is very high.

Placements: Nearly 70% of students choose this course. The lowest average package is 20,000 to 2 LPA after this course. We can apply for government jobs. Companies are more than one and at least very good, and roles given by the college are more than one and also interesting.

Infrastructure: Yes, in our college, Wi-Fi facilities and the library are very good, with AC labs and classrooms. The quality of the mess is also good, but the canteen is not very good. Sports and games are at the state level, and there is also a dispensary for medical problems. Medicine is also free.

Faculty: The teachers are helpful, qualified, and knowledgeable. The teaching quality is very good, but semester exams are tough, and the pass percentage is 33%. The course is very good and makes you ready for the industry. This is more interesting if we can have interns in this.

I am quite satisfied because of facility campus and environment of college etc.

Placements: Placement opportunities depend on the potential of the students. In the past, there was only one student in 2018 or 2019 who secured a package above 50 LPA. The average package for the current year, 2024, is 6 LPA, offered by Argusoft company in the CSE branch. Teachers assist students by conducting career counseling sessions.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure is quite decent. The hostel is well-furnished and clean. The mess food is tasty, healthy, and offers a nice menu. Hostel Wi-Fi has a good range, but campus Wi-Fi is comparatively slower. Overall, campus buildings are well-maintained, seating areas are good, and classrooms are suitable for learning.

Faculty: Teachers are very helpful, well-educated, and possess immense knowledge. Many faculty members are listed among the world's top 2% of scientists, which is a great opportunity for students to learn from them. They treat students politely and in a well-mannered way. Overall, the faculty and staff are amazing, but there are some shortcomings, so I would rate the faculty 4 out of 5 stars.

Other: GNDEC offers many cultural fests and extracurricular activities to help students relax. The campus crowd is vibrant, and the environment is lively. They also offer PMS scholarships to minority and backward-class students, which helps reduce their financial burden.
