NIT Jalandhar Salary Package 2024: Branch-Wise Highest, Average & Lowest Packages

Both NIT Jalandhar and IIIT Gwalior are great institutions, but their programs and approach differ. Here's a comparison:

• NIT Jalandhar CSE offers a 4-year B.Tech in Computer Science it's known for strong coding culture and placement records with flexibility to pursue M.Tech or job after B.Tech and high average package for CSE .

• On the other hand IIIT Gwalior Integrated B.Tech + M.Tech in IT a  5-year integrated course , saves 1 year if you were planning for M.Tech anyway ,has a strong research and technical base with excellent for students looking into R&D or higher studies.

Choose IIIT Gwalior if you're sure about a long academic path and want deep technical knowledge. Go for NIT Jalandhar if you prefer a more flexible 4-year course with early job opportunities.

Hope this helps you decide!

Hi Vedansh!

Thank you for reaching out!

Here’s a clear comparison to help you choose:

• NIT Jalandhar CSE is well-established national institute with NIT tag, excellent placements in software and core CS, has strong peer group, coding culture, and hackathons.

• PEC Chandigarh (CSE + Data Science) has a great reputation, especially in North India with Data Science specialization is highly in-demand, and good industry collaborations in Chandigarh tech sector.

If you're interested in Data Analytics, AI/ML, and want that early exposure, PEC's specialized program is better. But if you prefer core CS with flexibility, NIT Jalandhar has a stronger national brand. Both are excellent choose based on your career interests.

All the best!

Hello!

So based on your rank 5000 in JEE Mains and you are from Punjab you have some chances of getting NITJ  branches like mechanical civil, chemical or biotechnology but in the later rounds as SC category seats also closed early.

As  your SC rank is around 5000 your CRL can be anywhere between 1,20,000 to 1,60,000, depending on your marks.

Given your JEE Main rank (922 All India Rank) and CRL of 1.16 lakh, and considering financial constraints that make colleges like Chandigarh University (CU) or Lovely Professional University (LPU) less affordable, choosing between IPE at NIT Jalandhar, CSE at UIET Hoshiarpur, and ECE at CCET Chandigarh involves weighing the value of the institute, branch, and future career prospects. NIT Jalandhar, being a National Institute of Technology, has a strong reputation nationally, excellent infrastructure, and better placement opportunities across all branches compared to state colleges. Even if you choose Instrumentation and Process Engineering (IPE), which is a niche branch, the prestige of NIT and its connections with industry can offer good internships and jobs. UIET Hoshiarpur is affiliated with Punjab University and has a decent reputation, especially for CSE, which is a high-demand branch with better placement potential compared to ECE in CCET Chandigarh. CCET Chandigarh is well-regarded regionally, but ECE placements may not be as strong or lucrative as CSE placements. If finances are tight and you want the best return on investment, NIT Jalandhar’s IPE is a strong choice due to the brand value and quality of education. If you prefer a core branch like CSE and UIET’s fees are manageable, that is a good alternative. ECE at CCET can be considered if you have a specific interest in electronics and communications but expect relatively moderate placements. Ultimately, prioritize institute reputation and affordability, and try to align with your long-term career interests.

With a CRL rank of two hundred twenty-seven thousand and an SC category rank of fifteen thousand, your chances of getting Computer Science Engineering (CSE) at NIT Jalandhar may be challenging. NIT Jalandhar is a popular institute, and CSE typically has higher cutoffs.

However, having home state quota can improve your chances slightly. Here are some considerations:

1. Check Previous Year Cutoffs : Look at the previous year's opening and closing ranks for SC category students in CSE at NIT Jalandhar.

2. Counseling Process : Participate in the JoSAA counseling process, as it can provide better clarity on your chances.

3. Alternative Branches : If CSE is not available, consider other branches of engineering that may have lower cutoffs.
