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

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.

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.

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.

I closed this college because this is the most reputed college in my city. I did applied to other colleges but I would go there if I wouldn't be able to make it here. This is the best in the city. The admission process is informative and simple. It all starts with online form and then a short list is made after that you are called for counseling that is where you are offered courses based on percentage on 4 subjects physics maths chem eng also. 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).
