Remarks

This have the best reputation between private colleges after BITS and eats many NITs too in placements. The culture and campus is at best possible location/city. The crowd is really good and there is no ragging at all. Admission is through JEE mains.

Course Curriculum Overview

Technology is on a boom right now, and I have been fond of computers since my 9th grade.Also Thapar have amazing placements in Tech Industry. Students are around 500 600 in Computer alone but the placement still is around 70 - 80 percent. Exams are of good level and you have to study for it, no work around.

Class Size: 100Course Fees: INR 16 per year

Placement Experience

Placements is the best part here, Great companies like Microsoft, Amazon, Rubrik, DE Shaw, OYO, Paytm, Nutanix visits every year. Highest CTC is 48lpa by Microsoft till now. Computer/Electronics Placements are the best here.

Fee Structure And Facilities

Fees Hike is around 10 percent every year, there are some scholarships though. If you're in top 10 percent of your branch then based on your boards percentage you will get 1L/year scholarship(85% above), 2L/year(90% above). and you will het around 3L/year if you've 90% above in boards( this will be regardless of you come in top 10% of branch or not )

Campus Life

This is the best part of Thapar, it is like a home away from home. Patiala is a beautiful city with many clubs, great street food. Campus is 200 acres and feels like a city Inside. There are lot of cultural activities held by diff societies in Thapar. You will love it, trust me.

A perfect college to take admission for a good future

Likes

Interactions with lecturers from internation universities like- harvard and university of scotland
The mentors and faculties were supportive
They used to conduct placement assistance aswell.

Placement Experience:

We were offered placement assistance as it was an online program and i really think it is a good initiative because college are least bothered for placements for their online programs. As i had to pursue a career in marketing i started doing projects and internships in marketing and sales domain.

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

Life at CGC Landran

Likes

Infrastructure, most teacher behaviour, friendly students
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.
