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.

Exploring life at Chandigarh University

Likes

Good and modern campus infrastructure. The university is large, modern with good classrooms, labs, hostels and tec.
Most teachers are knowledgeable, supportive and explain concepts clearly.
The university provides placement drives, training sessions, career guidance and etc.

Dislikes

Large student intake. Due to high number of students, sometimes it can be difficult to get individual attention from faculty.
During peak hours, some areas of the campus can be crowded.
The quality of hostel food is not much satisfying.

Placement Experience:

Placements at Chandigarh University are generally good, with students becoming eligible for campus placements in the later semesters, dependiing on their course. Many companies visit the campus for recruitment, offering roles in IT, engineering, management and other fields. The packages vary by company and profile with some students receiving high packages while others get average entry-level offers. Placement opportunities depend on student skills, academic performance and interview preparation. After completing my degree, I plan to secure a good job in my field, gain practical experience and continue developing my technical and professional skills.

Environment , cleanliness, colleagues etc
Course, Locality, Faculty, Management etc

Dislikes

Some high teacher behaviour, also that of professor
Frequent demand of money as fees n hostel charge
Gym is provided but only for name, no fame , always full

Course Curriculum Overview:

I’d rate the curriculum like 7/10 in terms of relevance and comprehensiveness — it covers all the major CSE subjects like DSA, OS, DBMS, CN, AI, ML, Cloud, Cybersecurity basics, etc., and honestly that was one of the reasons I chose this course because at least the core subjects are solid even if PTU keeps some old-school stuff in the syllabus. The curriculum does prepare you for real-world stuff, but only to a point — like, if you focus on coding labs and projects you’ll be fine for internships, but if you depend only on classroom theory then it won’t help much because industry wants hands-on skills. For higher studies also it’s okay because theory depth in subjects like OS and DBMS is decent enough. But yeah, improvements are definitely needed — some subjects feel outdated, teachers should use more practical examples, and we need more real projects instead of copy-paste lab manuals; also some faculty teach directly from slides which gets boring fast. Exams come twice per semester (sessionals) plus the final end-sem around December/May; they’re mostly easy if you write long answers, but tricky if you rely only on understanding because PTU likes theory-heavy questions. Overall, the system works, but it could be way more practical and industry-focused.
