What Students Say

Likes

College culture of learning and improving.
Infrastructure and amenities provided to students.
Placements and internship opportunities provided are great.

Dislikes

Course curriculum structuring and some evaluation patterns.
No. of admissions are increasing rapidly.
Expensive tution fee which may be unaffordable for many

Course Curriculum Overview

Faculties are well-versed in their field but the course curriculum definitely needs improvement. As the semester passes there are more subjects with little to no relation to the course and don't provide any actual knowledge. There is a need for more industry-knowledge subjects.

Class Size: 30Course Fees: INR 440000 per year

Internships Opportunities

4.5

There are many companies coming for internships. I am currently interning at BYJU through college placements. I am having a great learning experience so far and as we become familiar with the project we are working on we are provided tasks to complete beginning with byte-sized tasks. It is a great career start.

Placement Experience

4.5

Students get eligible from the 5th semester for internship opportunities. Placements begin in the 7th semester. A lot of companies: 300+ visit campus for placements and offer diverse roles. The highest package for my placement went to 45 LPA and the average package for the previous year was 10.97 LPA. This year also placements are great. Above 90% of students get placed.

Fees and Financial Aid

There are so many scholarships available and their info is on the college website. But the tuition fees are expensive and there is about a 10% hike in it every academic year. Ph.D. students can work as Teaching assistant to earn through college.

Campus Life

Campus life is great. The infrastructure is good too. There are over 40 clubs and societies which provide a place to learn and improve your hidden talents. There are many fests happening all throughout the year but the biggest one for me is the techno-cultural fest "Saturnalia". Sports facilities, grounds, and equipment are great too. The library is exceptional and is one of the tops in India and Asia. Lecture halls are large and well-equipped with modern technology for teaching.

Hostel Facilities

Hostels are great. There are many room type options available like 2 seater, 3S,Ac, Non-Ac etc. Shared and attached washrooms are available. Hostel Mess is great as compared to many colleges. Food variety and quality is great.

Hostel Fee: INR 120000 per year

Admission

Applying through the college website with a fee of 1500 INR. There were many rounds of counseling but I got Computer engineering in online counseling on basis of my JEE Score and I also had an inside punjab quota. After that, we had to visit the campus for document verification.

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.
