Most colleges in India, even the top ones, usually fail to provide good placement opportunities for core branches like Electronics Engineering. The majority of the ECE students find their own way to get into consultancies, IT MNCs, or startups, some also choose to prepare for examinations like GATE and CAT.

UIET provides a good environment for the preparation of competitive examinations. Also, at least 50% of students of core branches in UIET prepare for GATE, CAT, or GRE. If you are expecting placement in one of the core branches, then don't join ECE in UIET rather take branches like CSE and IT.

If you are hardworking and want to prepare for GATE/CAT/GRE/ESE/UPSC then you can join UIET. Chandigarh has many good coaching centers for the preparation of these examinations.
