Why choose SVIET over other private Colleges in Jalandhar?
Placements: SVIET has a 70-80% placement rate every year. 30-40% of students got internships in companies like TCS and NIT from the CSE field. In recent placements, the lowest package offered is 3.6 LPA. The highest package offered is 54 LPA. The average package offered ranges from 8-9 LPA. IT recruiters like Accenture, Deloitte, TCS, Capgemini, IBM, Tech Mahindra, Cognizant, Wipro, Microsoft, and other startups hire students. CSE students achieved top roles like system engineer, senior developer, data architect, SOC analyst, cloud computing expert, and a consultant in the above-mentioned companies. To get an internship might be difficult, but college guarantees placements with the maximum package that ranges from 60-70 LPA if students are well-skilled.
Infrastructure: A lot of facilities are provided on campus, like Wi-Fi, transportation, advanced and sufficient computer systems in labs, seminar halls with a projector, a large lecture hall with 80 students' capacity, and a separate e-library for the CSE department with well-stocked journals, books, and research papers. Academic buildings and hostel buildings are fully furnished. The maintenance will be taken care of every year. The hostel room provides a shared room with a single bed, table, chair, and a cupboard with CCTV surveillance. There is one canteen and a small cafe with proper hygiene. In the hostel, the mess food is quite decent in taste, and hygiene might be compromised.
Faculty: We might experience compromises in faculty members and academics, since internal marks are in their hands. We need to behave well with all faculty members. They are very strict, old and experienced in teaching. Academic curriculum like organizational behaviour, economics, and business management are not useful, but core subjects are included, which are must-needed for our placements like DBMS, CAN, OS, Computer architecture, DSA, OOPs, etc.
Other: To get admission in this private college, students must have 50% in PCM in 12th, and other reservations are applicable on income and caste basis, and also through JEE. There is no such space for a playground or organisation of any event or fests. The campus life is not enjoyable. The institute has its own scholarship programme on the CGPA basis for each branch. Students can also get government scholarships. The CSE branch has a capacity of 60 students. For TFW, the fee is very low, like 40% of the original fees. Tech and cultural fests are organised every year. From my personal experience, I advise students to join this college and do DSA, LeetCode, and crack into Microsoft with the highest package.

The beauty of Chandigarh Engineering College.
Placements: The facilities and infrastructure of the mechanical department are better than I expected and better than those of the other private colleges. The Wi-FI speed has increased recently. The classrooms are A/C connected. The CAD Labs are very neat, as are the other labs. The library has many good books and research papers. The quality of hostel food is not so bad. I do not know much about it, but my hostel friends are satisfied with it. Medical facilities are provided, and the grounds are big.

Infrastructure: The department has well-equipped labs with an updated system, high-speed Wi-Fi, and smart classrooms. Hostel facilities are decent with basic amenities, a mess, and canteen food. Wardens are humble with students.

It is an average college with good placements. The syllabus is very outdated.
Placements: Our college does not guarantee 100 percent placements, as it depends upon students who have worked hard to get their placements by maintaining a good CGPA, AMCAT score, and other academic achievements. The lowest package offered is 2.5 LPA in sales. It invites companies, but offers low packages. The highest package offered is 54 LPA on campus. Companies like TCS, HCL, Infosys, and Amazon visit the college and hire students based on their mindset and achievements. Students get internships either by paying or for free from the college.
Infrastructure: The campus has good infrastructure. There are 6 floors, and each floor consists of different departments. My course is on the 5th floor in Wilson Block 3. Internet is provided after 1 year by making a student's internet ID. Classrooms are classic and not as good as in IITs. The library has different blocks.
Faculty: Teachers are well-qualified. They have years of knowledge, but their teaching style is not like what the current generation wants. The course curriculum is outdated, and it's not engaging with the new syllabus. According to today, AI is booming, but the syllabus is outdated. Semester exams are easy to crack, but the syllabus is heavily loaded, so the pressure of all subjects leads to low scores.
Other: I chose this course for leading in AI technology and a B.Tech degree. I think the college has to improve its academics. There are many clubs that organises many events inside the college.

It is an average college with an average facility.
Placements: As far as I know, our last pass-out batch did not have any company at that time. For on-campus placement, students are trying themselves, and 30% of the students are placed in the company. The average annual package is 3-4 LPA.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure here is nothing special. The college campus is very small and looks like a school campus. The labs and library are clean and well-maintained, but the computer systems are of very old models, which are of very low quality as per current technology.
Faculty: Final exams are in the hands of KKGPATU University. Every semester, there is a mass backlog in some subject or the other, and there is a lot of chaos in semester copy checking as well. There is a difference of 10-20 marks in evaluation. Teachers are supportive.

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.

In the hostel, there is a facility for hot water for bathing and drinking. The structure of the mess is also good.
