Hello student,

When comparing NIT Jalandhar and PEC (Punjab Engineering College) for placements, both colleges offer good opportunities, but there are some differences to consider:

1. Placement Rate : Both have strong placement rates, but PEC, being an older and more established institute, often attracts more high-profile companies, especially for core branches like CSE, ECE, and Mechanical.
   
   

2. Average Package : PEC generally offers slightly higher average packages, particularly in branches like CSE and ECE, as it is located in Chandigarh, a corporate hub. NIT Jalandhar, however, also has competitive placements with good packages, especially for CSE.
   
   

3. Location Advantage : PEC’s location in Chandigarh provides better internship and job opportunities due to proximity to corporate offices and industries compared to Jalandhar.
   
   

4. Alumni Network : PEC has a longer-established alumni network, which can be beneficial for placements and networking.

Overall, PEC might have a slight edge in placements if both colleges offer the same stream. However, both institutions are reputable, so you can expect good placement support at either one.
