The one thing that I never complained is the Faculty at this university.
Yes, not all are good enough to teach even but some of them are real gems they not only provide you with professional learning but also they will give you real-life learning so that you can succeed in your real life also.

They are very supportive and polite in nature otherwise 50% of our students get detained every semester. Also, they are Masters in their own fields so they have plenty of knowledge that we can acquire.

Yes, our campus provides the best in the best mechanical degree with good internship and placement offers.
Many students from mechanical branches got a 10/10 GPA in their 8th sem and also they got good placement in Mncs and startups. Mechanical Engineering has the best faculty so that students not just pass but they can get the actual skill that needs in the real world.
Mechanical department also mechanical department offers practical skills.

No, not actually, it offers, but in mechanical engineering, they have subjects related to Robotics. 
for AI, it has specific Branches from the last two years.

Because of fewer faculty members and less number of students in this branch at this university especially the main campus, they don't provide the Specification on this branch but PTU is capable enough to do it.

For PTU main and affiliated campuses the fee for the first sem is 50480, and after then you need to submit 48250 for every semester, it may can vary for this session because it's not announced officially.

If it varies then it'll vary for a maximum 5k.

For Boys hostel it has a very nominal fee that is 15k per year and even for  the girls hostel it's 15k per year,  
In the girls' hostel every room has Wi-Fi services.

For admission to the Civil Engineering programme at Punjab Technical University the candidates must have passed 10+2 inSciencestream from anyrecognisedboard with at least 50% marks Or Three-year of Diploma with Mathematics as equivalent to 10+2 level with minimum 50% marks Or IB Diploma after ten-year of schooling
