Question

Saurav Mallik · Accepted Answer

Choosing between Computer Science (CS) at Thapar Patiala and Electrical Engineering (EE) at PEC Chandigarh really depends on what you're passionate about. CS is more about software, while EE focuses on hardware.

Course Fees: CS at Thapar is around ₹13.23 lakh, whereas EE at PEC Chandigarh is about ₹6.39 lakh.
Salary Expectations: The highest CTC for CS at Thapar can go up to 20 LPA, with an average of 11 LPA. For EE at PEC, the highest is around 8-10 LPA, and the average is 6 LPA.
Recruiting Companies: CS grads from Thapar get recruited by companies like Wipro, Infosys, TCS, and IBM. EE grads from PEC get opportunities with Phillips, L&T, JP Morgan, and TCS.

CS jobs are in high demand because the tech industry is always growing. But, EE students can also apply for jobs in both core engineering and IT companies. So, if you love coding and software, Thapar might be a good fit (if you're okay with the fees). If you're more into electronics and hardware, PEC Chandigarh could be a better choice.
