My college is the best.

Faculty: Teachers are qualified from various top colleges like NITs, IITs, and many foreign universities. The curriculum is relevant apart from some old courses such as ed. There is no difficulty in passing the exam. The students can pass the exam by studying one week before the exams.

This is a really good college. Its Mechanical Engineering department is better than some NITs.

Faculty: Professors are really good, and discipline is well maintained. Semester exams are manageable. The pass percentage is around 20–30% per subject, which is easy to maintain. The course curriculum is relevant and helps a lot with future projects. Students can also pursue studies beyond the course curriculum on their own.

PEC Chandigarh is a college with a history and optimism.

Faculty: Some teachers are great, while some are average. Most electronics and CSE professors are decent. For VLSI, the syllabus is relevant and industry-oriented. Mid-semester and end-semester exams are quite difficult, but one can still achieve a good CGPA without extreme stress. The academic workload is well managed.

Genuine review of Punjab Engineering College.

Faculty: The teachers at Punjab Engineering College are qualified and knowledgeable with strong academic expertise in various domains. They are supportive and open to solving doubts and even guiding the future. The courses at college cover all the core subjects but students must put in effort to self-study and self-exploration. Semester exams are moderately difficult and are conducted twice a semester with grading being relatively lenient which gives a relaxation to students.

Review of Punjab Engineering College, Chandigarh.

Faculty: Core subjects professors are not helpful at all. They are highly knowledgeable and qualified. They are very arrogant. The teaching quality is below average, and we focus only on attendance. The course curriculum is somewhat relevant for making ourselves industry-ready, and we should gain skills from time to time. Our college exams are average and not difficult at all. We have to score a total of 30 marks from 100 to avoid backlogs.

Faculty: Teachers are very qualified and knowledgeable. Most teachers are very good at teaching. The course curriculum are somehow relevant to courses, as in the first year total focus is to explore students with different engineering background and then from the 2nd year onwards, the curriculum for specific course get started. It makes students industry-ready. The exam conducted in our college is average and set by the professor that have teach whole semester, so it is a good test for students.

Satisfied with the college because it gives us all the facilities.

Faculty: Teaching quality is overall good or average, not excellent. Teachers are well qualified. The course is relevant. The difficulty of exams is moderate, with a pass percentage of 90 to 95%. This pass percentage varies subject-wise. Physics is very tough here, and exams and quizzes in Physics are tough. Exams of all other subjects are normal.

Peaceful life at Punjab Engineering College, Chandigarh.

Faculty: Everyone is helpful, but faculty lacks professors from a design background. I hope staff recruitment gets better. But still, a couple of teachers are amazing and definitely very helpful. The curriculum is exactly like IIT B's design course, so the whole course is inclined to industrial design and is technical.

The college beats many top-tier colleges in terms of placement, and the overall experience is great.

Faculty: Teachers are very helpful and knowledgeable. These are teachers qualified from prestigious colleges of India like IITs, NITs, and other top government colleges. It is really easy to communicate with them and get your doubts cleared. The courses are quite relevant, but not so relevant, which I believe should be updated. But it's the problem faced by almost every college, I guess, these days. For the most part, this makes you industry-ready too. Semester exams are not so difficult, but the grading...

Truth about the infrastructure of PEC, Chandigarh.

Faculty: Teachers are helpful. However, some professors are strict. They are knowledgeable and teach well. The course curriculum is relevant and industry-ready. The exams are doable and not too difficult. The pass percentage is good in number. There are some issues with the marking rules. Some teachers are strict, and some do lenient checking.

Faculty: In the first year, I don’t have much idea about professors of my core subjects, but first-year teachers are good and qualified. The curriculum is good, and all important subjects and practical's are included. It makes us industry-ready. Semester exams are moderate. Around 30 marks are required to avoid a back in each subject.

Review of Punjab Engineering College, Chandigarh.

Faculty: Mostly, teachers are not interested in teaching properly, but if we go up to them and ask doubts, they will help us. They won't be very helpful otherwise. It's very hard to understand what they are teaching in classes (the same is in most colleges), so ChatGPT will help us a lot.

It has strong academics, supportive faculty, good placements and comfortable campus life.

Faculty: Faculty members in our course are very supportive and focused on practical learning. Most teachers have a good academic background and industry experience, which helps in understanding real examples during classes. The course curriculum is designed to build strong fundamentals in computer science. Semester exams are moderately difficult. Questions in exams mostly come from the syllabus taught in class, along with practical applications.
