Hi the PEC University of Technology, Chandigarh was originally established as Mugalpura Engineering College at Lahore (now in Pakistan) on November 9, 1921.

To the best of my knowledge it was the firs college in the Punjab fpor the engineerin stream


The name of the college was later changed to Maclagan Engineering College and it started functioning under the name on March 19, 1924.

In the year 1931, the college was affiliated to Punjab University, Lahore.

After partition in 1947, the college was shifted to Roorkee (India) and was renamed as East Punjab College of Engineering.

In the year 1950 the word East was dropped and it came to know by its present name – Punjab Engineering College.

Towards the end of December 1953, the college shifted to its present campus in Chandigarh to function under Govt. of Punjab.

In October 2003, the Govt. of India notified the Punjab Engineering College as a Deemed to be University and thereafter it became known as Punjab Engineering College (Deemed University).
