Remarks

College is well worth studying as placement record is one of very best in North India. Fees might feel bit stretched but faculty being one of the very best is well worth all our money. College management is of very good standard. Latest labs and beautiful

Entrance Preview

B.Tech was the most happening course and I took the admission with recommendation from my professor.

Course Curriculum Overview

3.5

Course Curriculum was mix of descriptive and practical. Special attention was given to each student. Professors had formed the great bond between themselves and students. Labs were big in size and had all the latest equipments.

Internships Opportunities

Many MNCs came and stipend was between 15000 to 25000. ITC, Phillips, Zee group, Jindal Steel, Oswal mills etc. Infact many low profile companies were Denied entry.

Placement Experience

4.5

Placement and job opportunities were maximum. Many MNCs offered between Rs.20000 to Rs.70000 sallary. ITC, Phillips, Zee group, Jindal Steel, Oswal mills etc all are regular. Infact many low profile companies were Denied entry.

College Events

All the festivals of Punjab are celebrated with pomp and show in the campus. National festivals are given utmost importance too. Sports day is organised too.

Fee Structure And Facilities

Fee structure is OK. Bit expensive but being fought by the cream of North Indian professors it is well worth it. So no complaints as getting a good job is almost guaranteed.

Fees and Financial Aid

Institute doesn't offer any loan facilities but scholarship is available. Also loan can be arranged from all govt. Banks under study loan.

Campus Life

3.5

Campus include very modern facilities. Sports ground for many sports is well laid all around campus. Also there is running track of high quality. There is separate arrangement for girls to stay. Students from all over India and few even foreign student are there. Competitions like robotic projects and debates do happen all around the year.

Hostel Facilities

3.5

Hostel facility is very good and not Extreamly expensive like in Delhi. Food is offered at very reasonable price

External Expense: Rs.2000 - Rs.4000

Alumni/Alumna

College seniors were always helpful. Anti- Ragging cells were in proper force and new comers never faced any issues. Alumni list is big and strong. Infact few even work at NASA.

Exam Structure

Exams happen every month. While finals are conducted in semester system that is every six months. Monthly tests helped us to be ready for semester exams in advance.

Faculty

Faculty was among the best of North India. Had a great time to be thought by such experienced faculty. Many of them were gold medalists of their subject.

Likes

college life of Chandigarh university is so good, all the events do happen .
teachers are so experienced and they are so supportive in here.
the placements in this university are great, all the big tech companies do visit while placements and provide jobs to the deserved students.

Dislikes

All the online courses should be reduced.
nothing is there in the university that is to dislike.
majority of the things are all good in our university.

Placement Experience:

The placemnets in the university starts from the 3 year only. companies comes in the 3rd year, students= can give interviews in this year, and they can get the NOC. wich means you can go for the job or the iinternship and there is no need to take the classes, because you are taking the indyustry level experience in the prior basis also.

A TOUR TO CGC LANDRAN

Likes

Events are more frequent here and most of the stars from punjabi industry are called more often for film promotions
No ragging is there infact seniors are friendly and try to help juniors
TPP (training and placement program) is provided that help students to crack placements

Dislikes

Attendance criteria (minimum 75 % is essential to maintain to be eligible to give exams)
Class timings are fixed from 9:15 to 4:35 and you can not enter in between 10 to 12:00 PM as gates are closed for this duration
Strength is rapidly increasing as new courses are introduced which increases competition during placements

Placement Experience:

Placements are decent, from 6th semester students become eligible for campus placement students need to enroll in TPP(Training and placement program) in order to get eligible for campus placement, Many companies visit our campus for eg Capgemini, LNT, ZSCALER, EDIFECS, AMAZON, PWC, WATCHGUARD TECHNOLOGIES etc overall above 200 offerrs are made to our senior batch with the highest package of 32LPA and average package of around 4.5LPA. more than 60% of students get placed .

College Life is Fun, Various activities and events happen in and around college, you got to know about others and crowd is also decent, Mostly Students are from northern regions that is Himachal Pradesh, Punjab, Uttar Pradesh and Uttarakhand .
Teachers are good and placement coordinators also help students to get good package on campus. a decent package can be bagged by a student if he/she seriously study and obtain a decent CGPA in exam. Make sure you clear all exams till 8th semester.
Infrastructure Is also good, laboratories are fitted with new desktops and campus size is also decent, Tuck shops and various Canteens are available inside the campus. Also Central Library is there inside the campus where students can study in exam t

Dislikes

The curriculum for 1st and 2nd semester is purely based on subjects that you studied in 11th and 12th, the advance versions of those topics are there in 1st and 2nd semester which make it difficult for students to get good grades.
The placement in other branches like Mechanical, electrical is mere, and one can face difficult in getting on campus placement if he/she belongs to these streams. Also Lack of practical knowledge is there in these streams, Theory is more focused.
If one opt for hostels, then the hostel facilities are not as good as it should be , the mess food is pathetic and one can face difficulty if he/she opt for hostel, also campartively hostel fees are also very high, whereas nearby Pg's are cheaper

Placement Experience:

placement is good in our college. Aveage package is 400000, and average package for cse stream is approx 500000. Various companies like alstom, infosys, accenture, TCS, Wipro, amazon, Walmart, JP Morgan chase and co. etc visit campus every year and recruit students. Approx 300+ companies visit campus and above 80% of cse students are placed but In other streams like ECE.EE and ME etc placements are campartively lower and students face difficulty in order to get placed. MY plan is job oriented i also want to get placed on campus and hope so i will get placed in a good company.
