If you are an academically interested person, both NIT Kurukshetra and PEC Chandigarh will cherish you, and you will get very good opportunities in both colleges. Here are some key points to consider when deciding between the two:

Commonalities between the two colleges:

  • Both are constituent colleges of Anna University, so they share certain components, including course offerings, examination schedules, and university calendar events.
  • Faculty transfers between the colleges occasionally, and collaboration in research is not uncommon.
  • Both colleges have bright and interesting peers and professors to inspire you.

Where PEC Chandigarh is better:

  • Scale: PEC is a bigger college with more people.
  • Exposure: PEC is in the center of the city and is a well-known institution in the area.
  • Faculty: PEC's faculty in the CS department has more doctorates, and the department has been around for a few decades.
  • Seniors: PEC has been teaching computer science for longer than NIT Kurukshetra, so there are more alumni out there creating and contributing to organizations.
  • Sponsors: Due to the above reasons, PEC has very good sponsorship for college events.
  • Campus: PEC's campus is beautiful, with easy access to AU events like counseling, placements, and festivals that happen in AU grounds.

Where NIT Kurukshetra is better:

  • Seniors Link: The link with seniors is much stronger at NIT Kurukshetra, with a strong emotional dimension to the senior-junior relationship.
  • Entrepreneurship: NIT Kurukshetra has an incubation center on campus, which is great for students interested in starting up early on.
  • Programming: NIT Kurukshetra has a good competitive programming culture, with consistently high rankings in the Regional ACM-ICPC competitions.
  • Campus: NIT Kurukshetra's campus is conveniently located near Chromepet Railway station and the bus stop, making it easy to get around the area. The campus also has a rich history, serving as a hanger for wartime planes, and the aeronautics department hosts a couple of legacy planes for people to admire.

Ultimately, the decision between NIT Kurukshetra and PEC Chandigarh depends on your personal preferences and priorities. Consider factors such as location, campus facilities, faculty, and alumni network when making your choice.

Is studying ECE at NIT Trichy better than studying ECE at CEG?

AS
Anuraag Sharma Posted On : September 9th, 2021
Studied at National Institute of Technology, Tiruchirappalli, Tamil Nadu, India

I have a few friends from both NIT Trichy and CEG and here is what I gathered from my conversations with them. 

  • In terms of ranking, NIT Trichy is placed higher than CEG. This is because NIT admits students based on JEE Mains ranking and CEG admits students based on board marks.
  • In terms of placements, NIT Trichy would be way ahead of CEG. The college enjoys a better reputation and big firms come for placements.
  • For ECE, then recruiting companies visiting the on-campus placements at NIT Trichy are Qualcomm, Texas Instruments, SanDisk, Nvidia, etc. The average CTC offered is 6 LPA. 
  • You can also go for higher education if you have a good GPA and great projects.
  • The faculty team is overall good. A few of them are extremely knowledgeable and conduct high-quality research. In terms of facilities, NIT Trichy has an edge over CEG. 
  • Since CEG is in Chennai, there are other sources of enjoyment but NIT Trichy is 20 km away from Trichy.

Overall, NIT Trichy will be a better choice than CEG.

Deeksha Seth Posted On : April 30th, 2021
B.Tech from Punjab Engineering College, Chandigarh (2020)

Among the above institutes, PEC Chandigarh is the best choice, considering the factors of availability in streams, fee structure, etc. If you have a specific branch in mind to pursue, then you can definitely choose PEC Chandigarh. But if you are considering a non-IIIT or non-NIT tag then you can opt for DTU. 

The table below gives a brief level of comparison among the institutes.

  • There are some subjects in PEC Chandigarh which are not available in other institutes like Thapar University or CEG, for example, Aeronautical Engineering.

Therefore, PEC Chandigarh is a better choice considering the factors stated above. Other than these, all the three institutes are incomparable to each other as they offer similar quality placement.

Which is better: the Anna University College of Engineering or NIT Trichy?

K
Kishore Posted On : December 9th, 2022
BTech from Anna University, Tamil Nadu, India (Graduated 2019)

I don’t think comparing both the colleges i.eAnna University College of Engineering and NIT Trichy is justified. This is because both are equally good in almost all the parameters. Both ranked among the top Engineering colleges in India. I have made a slight comparison based on the following factors to make a better choice:

Placements: NIT Trichy has an upper hand in placements. More core companies visit NITs in general than CEGs. This is because NIT is an established brand name.

Higher studies: CEG is slightly privileged in this aspect as it considers the TN state boards marks whereas NIT considers JEE performance. So the former is easier than the latter.

College life: College life at CEG is better because of its location. You can eat outside the hostel as many restaurants are available near the college. But NIT Trichy is far from the city so options for exploring are fewer.

Lastly, keep in mind that if you are choosing NIT then go for Trichy or Kurukshetra only. Don’t go for any other NIT leaving CEG.

Which should I choose, College of Engineering (Guindy) or NIT Puducherry?

BR
Bhoomika Ranjan, Posted On : October 25th, 2021
M.Tech Mechanical Engineering, Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore (2019)

NIT Puducherry is very new compared to College of Engineering Guindy (CEG). Let me share some points which might help you decide.

  • CEG is very old and experienced as an educational institution. It has well-established CSE and ECE departments with exceptional and updated lab facilities.
  • The syllabus is more or less similar in both colleges.
  • CEG has a more competitive student crowd which eventually helps students to boost their morale. 
  • Due to its years of educational experience, CEG definitely has a better placement record than NIT Puducherry.
Categories CEG NIT Puducherry
Course Fee 2 lakh 5.49 lakh
Placement Percentage 80% 65%
Highest CTC 22 LPA 15 LPA
Average CTC 7.5 LPA 4 LPA
Recruiting Companies TCS, HP, Cognizant, Dell, etc. L&T, EY, JP Morgan, TCS, etc.

It is recommended that you go for CEG if you have to choose between these two. But if your choice only is NIT Puducherry then you can opt for it. It is a good college but as it started functioning recently, it is better to go for an experienced one.
