Having done my graduation and post-graduation from PCTE, I can honestly tell that PCTE Group of Institutes, Ludhiana is an amazing college as it left no stone unturned to help me develop my overall personality. PCTE offered me a practical learning environment and I was able to acquire the skills necessary to bridge the gap from a student to a professional The college was established in the year 1999 and is affiliated to Punjab Technical University. Since then, it has continued to excel in the field of education. It has been awarded 30 national & international awards of repute and has been making it to the list of top-ranked colleges by various national magazines and journals, including Outlook, Business India, AIMA, etc. We were involved in multiple activities like games, exercises, workshops like RAWAR, Consumer Hub to name a few. Not only that, but we also had multiple co-curricular activities to participate in, be it stage events, literary events, or creative, which made me more confident. PCTE also provides great placement opportunities as well where the maximum package offered was 15 LPA and the average is 6.5 LPA. PCTE also has an Entrepreneurial Cell, a recognised Incubator by Start-up Cell Punjab for students who want to start a business or learn specific skills to expand their existing business. Even the fees of the college are very reasonable as PCTE has been awarded 2nd & 9th Best College on an ROI basis by Outlook Magazine and is recognised by the state government University. So, this was my honest review of the college.
