Metallurgy at PEC Chandigarh or Environmental at DTU or drop year? I came to know there is option of branch sliding in PEC . So should I go for it?

Yes, there is an option of branch sliding in PEC. You can change your branch after the second semester (i.e., first year). I know someone who upgraded from Metallurgy to IT. The upgrade is not a difficult task. 

Following are a few things that you should keep in mind.

• You can apply for branch change by filling up the Performa available in the Academic section on the mentioned date.
• You need to have an average commitment towards your preparation with no special preparation. Only consistent performance in mid-terms will be enough.
• There has been a change in the rule. Now, instead of two mid-term, there will be only one. So, it will be easy for you to score.

You can definitely go for changing branches in PEC by choosing a branch-like CSE, ECE, or any other of your interest. As for the choice of the branch you should choose the one that interests you.
