PEC Global Alumni Meet - 2016 was held at the institute campus on 13th February, 2016 in association with PECOSA, Chandigarh which was graced by nearly 300 alumni along with their families. Er. Sanjeev Nagpal, Managing Director NASA Agro Industries Ltd., Fazilka was the Chief Guest for the occasion, who is an alumnus of PEC (Mechanical-1980).

The function began with the recitation of PEC Anthem, followed by the ceremonial lighting of the lamp. Thereafter, the function proceeded with a warm welcome address by Er. Balwinder Singh, a past President of PECOSA. Later, the alumni were updated about the advancements at PEC through the video presented by Student Projection Club. The donated engines (in Mechanical department), panels (in Electrical department) and Advanced Communication Lab set up (in Electronics and Communication Engineering department) were the key highlights of the movie. 

Afterwards, the Director of the institute Dr. Manoj K. Arora and Prof. K. K Gogna, Dean Alumni, Corporate and International Relations, gave brief presentations on the journey of the institute from Lahore to the present day, its achievements and future plans. Some funfilled story sessions and nostalgic sharing of old memories, alumni belonging to the batches of 1956, 1966, 1981 and 1991 were honoured. Simultaneously, family members of the alumni were engaged in the fun games outside the auditorium.

The whole environment was filled with laugher and cheer where the alumni were seen merry making, enjoying and getting group photographs clicked before they departed for lunch in the Shivalik Hostel. Evening celebrations were held in beautifully decorated and well lighted pandals raised in the institute cricket ground lawns. Foot-tapping music cajoled the participants to dance who responded by occupying not only the DJ floor but also the entire stage.
