Top Companies |
Placements at PDPU are really good, as a lot of reputed companies take part in their placement program. They offer proper industrial exposure through internships and industry visits.
Petroleum Engineering and Technology students usually receive the highest salary package compared to other branches.
Once, ONGC had recruited around 15–20 Petroleum Engineers with a package of around 14–15 LPA. If you compare the average salary package, Petroleum engineers get a package of around 5–6 LPA.
Categories | Petroleum Engineering at PDPU |
Course Fee | INR 9.73 lakh |
Placement Percentage | 80% |
Highest CTC | 16 LPA |
Average CTC | 8 LPA |
Recruiting Companies | ONGC, Schlumberger, Shell, Reliance, etc. |
If you have good knowledge and fluent communication skills, combined with a perfect academic performance then you will definitely get placed in one of the reputed companies with appropriate salary packages.
One of my friends studied at Pandit Deendayal Energy University (PDPU), Gandhinagar. According to him, it is the right institution to study Petroleum Engineering.
Categories | PDPU |
Course Fee | INR 9.73 lakh |
Placement Percentage | 80% |
Highest CTC | 12-16 LPA |
Average CTC | 6-8 LPA |

PDPU Gandhinagar offers a great campus life. The campus life is also vibrant. They host lots of activities in various areas like coding, gaming, debating, etc. Also, lots of workshops are there for different streams. PDPU Gandhinagar has yearly cultural and technical fests known as ‘Flare’ & ‘Tesseract’ respectively. Overall PDPU is good and also has a strong alumni network.
Among the given choices IIIT Vadodara will be a good choice for you. This is a much old institution. The college provides better opportunities to learn and better placements to their students. Whereas, CE was introduced only a few years back at PDPU.
Here are some of the reasons why you should choose IIIT Vadodara.
Coding Culture:
IIIT Vadodara has got better coding culture. In past, students of this college have perticia[ated in GSOC, ACM ICPC and brought good results.
Placements:
The placement statistics of IIIT Vadodara for the CSE branch are also quite impressive. Here is a brief highlight of the same.

As IIIT Vadodara does not have a permanent campus yet, the campus life at PDPU will be comparably better. However, if we consider all other options then IIIT Vadodara is definitely ahead of PDPU.
According to the reviews online, here is a comparison between the two colleges Nirma University and PDPU.
Categories | Nirma University | PDPU |
Course Fee | INR 7.24 lakh | INR 9.73 lakh |
Placement Percentage | 70% | 70% |
Highest CTC | 12 LPA | 10-12 LPA |
Average CTC | 5 LPA | 6 LPA |
Recruiting Companies | L&T, Bosch, etc. | Hindustan Unilever, Nayara Energy, etc. |
Lastly, it can be stated that Nirma is slowly deteriorating, on the other hand PDPU is gaining popularity and recognition. So, if you want to pursue Petroleum Engineering go for PDPU, otherwise Nirma will be a better option.
According to the reviews online, both colleges have their own pros and cons, and here are some comparison points which might help you make an informed decision.
Lastly, it can be seen that PDPU, even being a newer institution has grown a lot compared to other colleges. They are visited by core companies which hire students offering them a salary package of 14-15 LPA. So, it will be better if you go for PDPU as it will give you proper industrial exposure and opportunities.
One of my friends studied at PDPU Gandhinagar. According to him, it, like any other college, has its fair share of pros and cons.
Categories | PDPU |
Course Fee | INR 9.73 lakh |
Placement Percentage | 80% |
Highest CTC | 12-16 LPA |
Average CTC | 6-8 LPA |
Recruiting Companies | ONGC, Schlumberger, Shell, Reliance, etc. |
Overall they offer the best sports facilities, international and national exposure, workshops, job opportunities, etc. Thus studying in PDPU will definitely be fulfilling and worthwhile.
One of my friends studied at PDPU with Liberal Studies. His major was International Relations and Environmental Studies. So according to him, the School of Liberal Studies (SLS) is based on 3 pillars which are quintessential to any liberal arts school; Creativity, Critical Thinking and Articulation.
Over the course of the first 4 semesters, you have an opportunity to explore a wide range of 30 subjects spanning across the fields of Economics, International Relations, Psychology, Governance and Public Administration, Mathematics, Geography, English Literature, Food Geography, Environmental Law/Studies, Communication, Foreign Languages, Sciences, Theatre, Music, Art, Marketing and History. For the final two years, you have to pick a field to major in and a complementary minor.
He has been a recipient of 4 Research Travel Grants, his research include Agriculture, Food Politics, International Relations and Environmental Policy.
The management has supported him in his endeavors and the professors were very cooperative.
Therefore, the SLS provided him a stable platform with the right set of tools, Research Support, Experienced Faculties, Unique and Socratic Pedagogy, Adequate Infrastructure and perspective.
The School of Liberal Studies allows one to fully express themselves whether it is in academics, fine arts or sports. You can study everything from Political Philosophy of Ancient Greece to Food Policy in Rural India. It will prepare you for real life challenges and formulate a view based on International and Local Experiences combined with classroom discussions and debates.
The fees that PDPU charges are not only for the education but the overall development of an individual. The campus, classrooms, ambience and its rich and vivid culture will definitely have a huge impact on the students. You will not get such all-round development in sports and other extra curriculars in any other college in Gujarat.
When placements are considered it always stood out among others. The ICT and CS at PDPU was started keeping in mind the need of engineers that will rise for The Jio project of Mr. Mukesh Ambani who is the president of PDPU. So Jio will be hiring many students.
According to the reviews online, here are some of the facts about both these colleges, and which one will be the better choice for pursuing chemical engineering.
Categories | Nirma University | PDPU |
Course Fee | INR 7.24 lakh | INR 9.73 lakh |
Placement Percentage | 70% | 80% |
Highest CTC | 13 LPA | 8-12 LPA |
Average CTC | 6-7 LPA | 7-7.5 LPA |
Recruiting Companies | Reliance, L&T, Worley Engineering, Jubilant Life Sciences, etc. | Super Gas, GSFC, Thermax, DCM Shriram, etc. |
Therefore, it is suggested that you go for PDPU if fees are not your primary concern. Students at PDPU will definitely get better opportunities for chemical engineering than Nirma. Even if Nirma is a more experienced institution, the newer approach of PDPU will always help you get accustomed to the functioning in today’s industries.
