Studied at I. K. Gujral Punjab Technical University

Yes, you can leave PTU college after the first year of B.Tech and not only leave, you can even migrate from the PTU college to the other.

For migration, there are certain rules and regulations. If those conditions are satisfied, you can proceed with the process. You must have passed all exams of the 1st year. Before taking any decision, it is suggested that you contact the staff or faculty.

Think about the decision of leaving or migrating to PTU college twice and then come to any conclusion. Also, after making the decision, get details of all the rules and see whether you can attain them.

Do colleges under PTU have no value in these years?

PTU Jalandhar is a good college and has a good reputation too. Though, there might be some glitches of course, which do increase or decrease with time. It’s definitely a challenge to maintain the right curriculum and culture, but I can assure you that PTU Jalandhar is quite a good college.

PTU is affiliated with a lot of colleges, a majority of them are just doing business in the name of education and making money and some are just selling the study for the sake.

  • PTU Jalandhar is much reputed like any other popular college. 
  • It is known for the help it provides in getting the jobs and conducting placement drives successfully.
  • From an industry perspective, PTU has a wide reach. Many notable companies tend to participate in their placement program.
  • PTU, unlike other colleges, does not discriminate among its students. If you are skilled enough, you have a solid chance to secure a placement.

Thus, people claiming that PTU has lost its value are not right. They provided a vague statement and as its name does not have the same brand value as the IITs or NITs, PYU is often undermined.

How do I get a transcript from PTU Jalandhar directly to IQAS Canada?

HS

PTU supports the processing of transcripts online by its graduates. Here are some things I got to know after doing some research online.

  • Just visit the PTU official website alumni/student center or contact the following number (1800 266 2501) to find out how the transcripts are to be submitted online.
  • Upon application of the transcripts and payment of about INR 500–600, the transcripts are mailed to your address.
  • Either WES or IQAS or someone else can be.
  • Transcripts take 1–2 weeks for addresses in India, and 4-5 weeks for transcripts outside India.

This is the information I got after researching online. Hope this helps you answer your question, you can also connect with the alumni to get proper detailed information.

Why is the checking of PTU Jalandhar not appropriate?

MB
Manilla Brar Posted On : September 10th, 2021
B.Tech Technology & Politics, I. K. Gujral Punjab Technical University (2013)

There is hardly any university that has the best evaluation process. It's not just PTU but most of the Indian universities fail to evaluate the students properly, especially when the course being taught is more practical than academic.

  • A study was recently conducted and it was concluded that more than 80% of graduate engineers in the country are unskilled or you can say lack viable requirements as per a need of the company.
  • In regards to PTU, most of the answers are mugged up from guides and that lacks actual knowledge.
  • I believe a major portion of students is not able to pass it. But as they do pass from this you can conclude that checking is not proper.
  • Also, the evaluation is based more on the mass of the content rather than quality; you might get surprising results after the examination.

Also, I would suggest you do your side of the research for a much better depth rather than believing superficially. But, you can get an overview that our universities do not have good teachers who also eventually end up evaluating your exam papers.

How is PTU Jalandhar for a B.Tech?

TK
Tanya Khurana Posted On : September 7th, 2021
B.Tech CSE from I.K. Gujral Punjab Technical University (2021)

Your first options should be IITs or NITs for B.Tech as they offer the best placement offers. As a college plays an important role in determining the exposure and your success. The colleges that are affiliated with PTU are average and have the lowest placement record as compared to IITs.

With the introduction of a new syllabus, there has been the inclusion of many exciting subjects in the B.Tech course. However, the education quality at PTU Jalandhar is below average. Students have received backlogs almost every semester. The evaluation process is not done sincerely.

If you are comfortable with dropping a year and score a good rank in JEE Main, then go for it. However, if you are only looking for a degree and already have a reference in some company, then you can join PTU.

What is better, IGNOU or PTU?

B.Tech in Computer Science & Computer Programming, I. K. Gujral Punjab Technical University

IGNOU is better than PTU. IGNOU courses are better recognized in the industry. It is a trusted distance education institution in India. IGNOU has all the required accreditation. If you are planning on pursuing distance education, choosing IGNOU will be wiser.  

PTU degrees are valid. The university offers decent academics. But in industry, IGNOU degrees are more reputed.

I want to transfer from PTU to Chandigarh university. will that be possible though I'm studying in 1 year and I want to join from 2 year?

SK
Sudeshna Kumari Posted On : September 4th, 2021
B.Tech Civil Engineering from Chandigarh University (2021)

It’s quite difficult to get a transfer from PTU to Chandigarh University. If you want to take admission to Chandigarh University then, you might have to cancel your admission first and then apply there.

Both PTU and Chandigarh University are independent universities and there is no link between them. Also, Chandigarh University is not even affiliated with PTU, so joining in the 2nd year is not possible.

But in case you're a diploma student then you can join in the 2nd year of Engineering. However, if you wish, you can sit for the first year again.

PTU exams are very difficult and a student has to do a lot of hard work and study sincerely to successfully clear this exam. As some of my friends studied at PTU, I can provide some strategies you can use to study effectively for the exams. 

  • Make a study routine for your exam preparations and try to follow it regularly.
  • Go through the syllabus sequences and clear all the concepts properly. 
  • If you are having any kind of doubts or queries then do not hesitate to ask your teachers to solve them and make sure you understand the concepts well.
  • Practice numerical questions as solving these questions will make your overall score better.
  • Focus on long answer type questions specially which have been asked more than 2 times, as most of these questions tend to repeat.
  • Attend all your classes regularly and try to clear out all your doubts and queries with your teachers as avoiding this can be a very big mistake.
  • Solve sample papers, this will give you an idea about the important topics. Solve question banks of competitive exams such as GATE AE, etc. as well.

Hence, these are some strategies which you should follow to study effectively for PTU exams to clear it successfully.
