Remarks

I say, it is an average college. College put good efforts on students but they need put the same effort on teachers too.

Course Curriculum Overview

3.5

Course curriculum is very basic. Subjects are good but as of syllabus, it is very easy. But organisations come for placement drives asks only basic questions so I think that is sufficient. Every semester they have one project. Every student has to do one project which helps in building mind set of a student.

Course Fees: INR 130000 per year

Placement Experience

Placements are going on virtually. Nokia, capdgemini, informatica, nutanix, play fair games, walmart have already taken the tests for placement drive virtually. They are still many companies to visit like amazon, IBM, codevita, etc.

College Events

4.5

Tech fest - students from all over the globe come and participate. Our college arrange many workshops in collaboration with IBM, Techkriti. Our college also arange many hackathons on techfest. Previous year my college was the host for all india hackathon.

Fee Structure And Facilities

It is a bit expensive I my opinion. I have semester fee of rs.69500, hostel fee rs.78000 per year, 2000 examination fee per semester, 500 for fest. Which combines about Rs.150000 per year comprising of personal expenses. You can either pay online on college website or can pay at cash counter via cash or card. You can also pay via challan which can be generated through college website.

Fees and Financial Aid

I did not opted for scholarship. but college offers many scholarship options based on JEE rank, 12th marks, graduation marks etc.

Campus Life

4.5

campus life is good. campus is full of greenery. There are students from all over globe.Mainly foreign students are from bangladesh, china, afghanistan and africa. People from different societies are there. In my class there are students from UP, Rajasthan, assam, mumbai, delhi, punjab, haryana. They are so many diversities

Hostel Facilities

3.5

I opted for hostel and which costs 78000 for one year. Hostels rooms are very clean. our room is cleaned every day. But hostel mess food is not upto the mark. It is clean but not tasty. If you don't want to opt for hostel then average pg can be taken for about rs.7000.

Hostel Fee: INR 78000 per yearExternal Expense: Rs.4000 - Rs.7000

Alumni/Alumna

They are helpful, college arrange seminars with seniors as demanded by the students. We regularly interact with our placed seniors.

Admission

I registered to my college by giving RS.10000. They let me register and I choose to take hostel. Admission process is quite simple. Just go and ask at administrator office to get admission or you can register yourself online. Whole process is very simple.

Faculty

2.5

Faculty is always ready to help. My college is very student friendly. If I have any doubt then they are always ready to clear my doubt. Teachers always guide us about preparation of placements. They tell us how to prepare for the upcoming drive. But there are some teacher who lag in teaching.

Attendence i perdonally didn't like, but it is mandatory

overall college is good, you can go for it but not for placements

Placement Experience:

Rest everything is good with college, only i have issue with placement, since there are very poor or only core sales job in punjab, college is able to provide that only. You have to work your ass off if you want to get good placement, provided their education quality is good

Likes

The infrastructure is great with state of the art labs and equipment
The library is really nice place to study
Lots of hangout spots in and around campus

Dislikes

Less opportunities for core branches as less core companies visit campus
75 percent attendance policy for classes
Very high fees compared to other colleges

Placement Experience:

Companies start coming summer internships in the 5th and 6th semester though ,CG cuts are imposed so very less students are elgible to sit for these companies, The real placement season is 7th and 8th semester and many companies visit campus for placements. around 60 percent students got placed in the recent placement drive. The major recruiters are: Oracle, CISCO, JPMC,Deloite,IBM,ZS etc.

Good infrastructure, campus and faculty. Have to improve placements and industrial visits.

Likes

The campus is very green and clean. Infrastructure is good and one can feel fresh air here in campus
The faculty is excellent, almost all of the professors and assistant professors have a degree from renowned institutes. So they know their subject and field very well.
Hostels are good and affordable. Although the hostels itself are old, services are good and you get a nice room for the price/rent

Dislikes

The crowd isn't good. Always demotivated to do anything productive regarding studies. Some people are just here for time-pass
Very less site and outdoor visits. For practical experience, they should conduct industrial visits, but that happens rarely
Placements are really Dry and there is decline in company visits for placement.

Placement Experience:

Placements are not that good. Although companies come, there is a lack of mass recruiters or reputed organizations. One has to grind hard here for placements. If you're a CS student, you will have to face immense competition here. As for core branches, placements are severely dry. Students gets eligible in 4th year onwards for placements. Some of recruiters here are Trident, TCS, Reliance, Sonalika and other few. Every company offers around 10-15 selected students for a job. Highest package ever was 15LPA and average is 3.2LPA. Percentage placed is only around 15% here. My plans after the degree are to apply for govt exams.

An In-Depth Look at Campus Life and opportunities at Chandigarh University

Likes

I think, the campus is being liked by everyone whether its staff member or a student, because the university consists of many blocks or departments and that too are named as A1, A2, A3, A4 & B1, B2, B3, B4, B5 & C1, C2, C3 & D1,D2,D3,D4,D5,D6,D7,D8
Parks and all are made for the relaxation purpose of the student
Car Parkings are available separately for the students and staff and that also inside the campus which is ambitious.

Dislikes

The semester fees and other expenses is relatively higher as compared to other institutions
Some students find the university’s rule such as strict attendance policies and accurate timings for the classes, quite stringent
Mostly 2 common times, one is in morning nearby 8.50 AM to 9.50 AM and in evening nearby 3.50 PM to 5.00 PM, the rush is like horses and buffaloes! There is so much over crowded & most of the crowd occurs by the Autos, but no one do anything for that

Course Curriculum Overview:

As i have opted the course B.Pharmacy! I rate the course as optimal, neither too bad nor too good, its medium! Now comes on teaching method, some teachers are really well and good and few are those who does not teaches but only writing writing, thats it, they will not explain at all! And one thing they should change is that All Courses except B.Pharmacy in Chandigarh University have the criteria to pass the student even below the 40% only or the half of the highest number scored by the topper in the class, and for Bpharmacy its minimum requirement to pass the exam is 50%, Oh My God! This needs to be changed, Now every year, in Bpharmacy, the overall 80% students are getting Compartments (Back/Fail) in the subjects, but the University is not understanding it all. So this should be changed as earlier!

The Library that remains open till 10-11 at night for those who wish to study till late
Great mentors and very helpful teachers who are always willing to help

Dislikes

The hectic schedule and curriculum that the students have to follow.
The lack of certain facilities that would help the students improve thoer personalities
Too much strictness and restrictions with everything that someone wishes to do

Course Curriculum Overview:

The interest in coding influenced me to choose this subject and course. The curriculum gets me ready for a 9-5 job which kind of gets hectic. The teachers could maybe schedule classes to give the students time to study what they want to and if they wish to do a course outside the university they have the time to do so rather than just going by the university curriculum

A Honest Review about Chandigarh University: From Its Student.

I applied to multiple colleges like SRM Chennai, VIT vellore, and Lovely Professional University(LPU). I got confirmed admisison from all of them. I choose this university cause of the low fees and it is near to the place where I live. I appeared for the JEE exams, and due to my low score was not able to make it through in any of the Tier-1 colleges, The admission process is really easy, Appear for the CUCET examination and you get scholarship based on your score, qualifying criteria is 60% in boards examination. If you have high scores in JEE, CUET-UG, or Board examinations you get direct admission in the university....Read More
