Remarks

There is no entrance exam. You can get admission on the basis of your marks on the 12th board. The cutoff last year was 75%. Application form, fees, and date can be checked from the website of the university i.e. gndurcjal.in

Course Curriculum Overview

I chose CSE because I am passionate about learning different computer languages. The teaching staff of the college all are Ph.D. but they don't take too many lectures. The semester exams were delayed due to COVID-19 and they were not that difficult because teachers here don't check the quality but they literally check the quantity that the student has written. If you have filled all the given pages in an answer sheet, you are gonna get crazy high marks.

Class Size: 48Course Fees: INR 130000 per year

Placement Experience

2.5

After completing their 7th semester, students become eligible for campus placements. The highest package is around 12L and the average package is 5.5L. The percentage of students getting placements is 96%. After completing my degree, my plan is to get a job and earn and after that go to Canada for further studies.

Fees and Financial Aid

It is a government college and there are negligible fee hikes. Fee of one year is 1,30,000 for the general category. I got no scholarship or financial assistance even though I scored 89.6% on the 12th board. And there is no provision of jobs for students.

Campus Life

1.5

There is an annual fest every year but no tech fests are arranged by the college. The campus area is very small, smaller than a cricket ground. And on that area, they have built everything like B.Tech department, Law Department, their libraries. There are very less books available in the library. There is one badminton court, one volleyball court, and one basketball court but no court is good enough conditions. Badminton court is built in open even though badminton is an indoor game. There are no extracurricular activities organized by the college. College website: gndurcjal.in

Teachers were helpful, they guide very well for the upcoming careers
labs are very good, we used to do a lot of experiments with different things like they got a 3D printer in the lab, we made a clone with that
College is very neat and clean. lots of greenery was there

Dislikes

Less practical, more thoery. we used to read more thorey about the things we have to do practical.
In some classes, ACs not working, so we had the worst time in summers when they don't on the AC
Sometimes there were lot of crowd with less discipline students

Course Curriculum Overview:

the course is quite good as i choose this because i have specific interest in studying Computer science. Also it provides knowledge of theorectical and practical both. the curriculum provides good knowledge and i feel like some of the subjects are more theory oriented and i suggest students need more in practical exposure to understand how the things worked. in terms of teaching methods, teachers should give more focus on practical methods along with theory. Exams are conducted twice a year, there were also internal practicals, assestments to prepare us more for the final exams. the difficulty level is moderate, also depends on the subject.

IIT Ropar- Best new gen IIT?

Likes

Campus was amazing, Size was around 548 acres.
Campus located in Ropar pretty close to Chandigarh giving us location benifits.
Placement opportunities especially for CSE students were broad. Research opportunities were great.

Dislikes

Core Branches placements lacked as compared to CSE.
Lesser opportunities as compared to prime located IITS like IIT Delhi. Even IIT Hyderabad regarless of the ranking has much more opportunities as corporate is there in Hyderabad more than Ropar and Chandigarh.
Weather was quite extreme. No ACs in hostels.

Placement Experience:

Placements are quite good. The claimed average package is 25 Lacs these days. But the actual median package is for non CSE branch was as low as 8-9 LPA. Also international package boosts the avaerage package component.

I like the security of the Chandigarh university is so good guards and the cctv cameras are all around the campus
I like the quality of study and the knowledge the faculty provide us during the lectures and practicals

Dislikes

I dont like the attendance criteria in this university.
In some of the subjects we have to maintain 90% attendance and that is difficult for the most of students
I dont like the number of lectures in per week in this course like i have 26 lectures per week in my course

Placement Experience:

Placements here in this college are really good. Before the placements they give us all the information about the rounds in placements in the form of seminars and also there are mock tests for the placements and the interview trainings before the placement drives and the AMCAT exam which is for the placements.

After that you apply for the Desired course for which again you get shortlisted and you then after making all the shortlisted you get selected. ???? The exams were 12th and jee (optional).
